So much for the “public’s right to know.”
According to journalist Carl Bernstein, several people “very close” to President Biden have related that the president has had 15-to-20 episodes of cognitive decline — similar to what happened during the presidential debate the other evening — during the past year and a half. Bernstein told CNN that these Biden supporters said, “There have been numerous instances where the president has lost his train of thought, can’t pick it up again.” The New York Post editorialized that Democrats and their “media enablers” have attempted to hide Biden’s cognitive decline. The Daily Mail reports that “current and former aides” to the president are saying that Biden’s cognitive decline has been known for months. National Review calls the “cover-up of Biden’s mental decline” a scandal. And recall that the special counsel’s report about the mishandling of classified documents by the president described Biden’s memory as “hazy,” “fuzzy,” “faulty,” and “poor.” Axios reports that top aides to the president have “carefully shielded him from people inside and outside the White House since the beginning of his presidency,” noting that first Lady Jill Biden was especially “protective” of the president. Fox News reports that there is growing anger among some Democrats at Jill Biden and White House staffers who they claim have “concealed” the president’s mental decline.
