The Biden Scandal Goes Well Beyond the Aging Cover-Up
Briefly

The article discusses the urgent need for Democrats to reflect on Joe Biden's presidency, which ended with his failure to seek reelection. His decision led to Kamala Harris's weakened campaign and Donald Trump's potential return. The upcoming book 'Original Sin' by Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson highlights Biden's declining cognitive health and a cover-up by those within his circle. Despite temptations to focus on fighting Trump, internal critiques are hindered by careerism among party officials, creating a need for an honest analysis to rebuild and strategize for the future.
