In a stunning turn of events, longtime CNN anchor Jake Tapper just admitted what conservative America has been shouting from the rooftops for years: Joe Biden’s cognitive decline was real, serious, and deliberately hidden from the public. Even more shocking? Tapper now says the cover-up might be *worse than Watergate.*
Yes, you read that right. The same Jake Tapper who spent years running interference for the Biden administration is now backpedaling—fast. While promoting his new book *Original Sin*, co-authored with Axios reporter Alex Thompson, Tapper sat down with Piers Morgan and confessed that the media and Biden’s inner circle engaged in a coordinated cover-up of the President’s alarming mental deterioration.
“It is a scandal,” Tapper told Morgan. “Maybe even worse than Watergate in some ways.”
That’s not coming from a conservative outlet. That’s straight from the mouth of one of CNN’s most recognizable personalities. After years of dismissing conservative concerns as “right-wing conspiracies,” Tapper is finally conceding what was obvious to anyone watching Biden stumble through interviews, lose his train of thought mid-sentence, or freeze on stage like a deer in headlights.
Tapper explained that unlike Nixon—who, despite his corruption, was still mentally competent—Biden’s situation posed a unique threat. “Because Richard Nixon was in control of his faculties… We don’t mean to exonerate,” Tapper admitted, but made clear that Biden’s handlers, knowing full well the president was unfit, chose to keep him in power for political gain.
Morgan wasn’t buying the spin either. “I think, arguably, it is worse actually,” he told Tapper, slamming the Biden team’s deceitful strategy. The book even includes a jaw-dropping quote from one longtime Biden aide: *“He just had to win and then he could disappear for four years. He’d only have to show proof of life every once in a while.”*
Let that sink in.
This wasn’t leadership—it was a cynical, calculated hoax pulled off by political operatives who were willing to gamble with the security of the United States just to keep Trump out of the White House.
Even Tapper, during an appearance on *The Megyn Kelly Show*, admitted the mainstream media blew it. “Conservative media was correct,” he said, adding, “I feel like I owe the American people an acknowledgement that I wish I had covered the story better.”
Now, after four years of gaslighting, media smears, and social media censorship aimed at anyone who dared question Biden’s fitness, the left’s narrative is collapsing. Tapper’s sudden epiphany is too little, too late for the small businesses crushed by Biden’s inflation, the families mourning the consequences of his open border, and the Americans who were silenced for telling the truth.
The real scandal isn’t just Biden’s decline—it’s the fact that the Democratic Party and their media allies knew all about it and lied to the nation anyway.
Watergate was about a cover-up of a crime. This was a cover-up of a presidency. And yes, it’s worse.
