Victor Davis Hanson Says Jake Tapper’s Biden Flip-Flop Proves It Was Always About Politics

  • Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson released the book 'Original Sin' on May 21, 2025, detailing Joe Biden's cognitive decline during his presidency.
  • The book follows years of Republican concerns and media denials about Biden's mental fitness, with Biden leaving office in June 2024 amid prostate cancer diagnosis.
  • Tapper faced criticism for previously dismissing Biden's decline, with conservatives accusing him of covering up and then profiting from the story after Democrats lost the election.
  • Tapper acknowledged mistakes and expressed humility about his coverage, stating, "You were right," while others like Victor Davis Hanson called the flip-flop politically motivated.
  • The episode highlights ongoing debates about journalistic transparency regarding leaders' health and the political pressures influencing media narratives during Biden's term.
