So....72 percent of the American people ‘see a cover up’ in the Biden team’s efforts to play down his mental and physical decline...and...
And....nearly half of Americans think that Joe Biden-went into- the presidency already on a cognitive decline.
Of course he did-
But- in this politically divided country- to have more than 7 in 10 Americans tell Rasmussen polling that they believe his aides and the MSM engaged in a cover up of his failings- is significant.
It's another indication if ‘how little’ today’s democrat party is trusted-and how-if they don’t find a way to ‘come clean’ and move past it-this is the sort of lingering wound that could cause them losses next fall-and maybe even in 2028, again.
Rasmussen’s survey found:
72% Say Cover-Up of Biden Decline a ‘Serious’ Scandal
There’s the proof that the democrats aren’t just going to be able to wallpaper over this...or say ‘no comment’...or ‘we’re looking forward’ ...for a few weeks and then move on. It’s not that sort of scandal.
This is going to hound their candidates into 2026- and maybe even into 2028- if they keep pretending, they didn’t know and/or ‘weren’t part of’ the conspiracy. Especially when half of them is on tape playing a prominent role in the cover up-like Pete Buttajedge and Kamala Harris.
I know I’ve been spending a lot of time on this but this genuinely is one of the worst presidential scandals in US history and it’s unfolding right now in our time.
And I’ve been trying to find new takes and sidebars related to it-because I’m running against so many good points- and so much good content.
This is going to become a larger and larger issue because- while Joe Biden -did- personally sign the pardons related to his son and family members- he didn’t personally sign about 8000 pardons and commutations that were done in his name.
And we already have a lower-level appointee from the Biden White House saying -he was wondering, too- and when he checked it out- it appeared to be Anita Dunn and Bob Bauer...who were the two people who insiders labeled the ‘ultimate power couple’ at the center of Biden’s white house.
And so-you can already see where this is going: are any of those pardons legal and valid-if it was really Bauer and Dunn dreaming up the list and auto signing them?
And with a failing and fatigued president who could only ‘work’ or ‘focus between the hours of about ten am and 4 pm....did they even bother to run the list of pardons and commutations past the president first?
I bet they didn’t.
And so- how many of those people who were pardoned and/or released should be eligible to face criminal charged again and/or put back into prison?
This could get messy. And this is only one question looming over the last four years if we really had an absentee president. Or one that was only occasionally ‘checked in’ mentally.
President Trump was openly questioning what Joe Biden did-or didn’t- know about yesterday.
He started off by saying, basically, I find it hard to believe that Joe Biden wanted open borders. So, who really ordered the open borders? Where did those orders originate from?
Congressman James Comer-the head of the house oversight committee- was already vowing to look into the question of ‘who was controlling this autopen’...but he told reporters he’s doubling down on it now that these new revelations have come out: those that make more and more clear with each passing day Joe Biden was not genuinely acting as president over the last four years.
Comer, too, called this the biggest cover-up in American history. And it might be. And the American people want, need, and deserve answers.
President Trump and his team came into office vowing to finally get to the bottom of a lot of these things- so it’s good to see they were serious-and are doing it.
For example: Pete Hegseth was promising this next move even before we learned more about Biden’s dementia and the fact that he probably wasn’t making most of these decisions-
But consider what sort of ‘new light’ this puts Hegseth’s new move under: he, as defense secretary, is ordering a special task force to investigate the deadly and chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan that Joe Biden and Anthony Blinken were allegedly in charge of.
We still don’t have answers on ‘how’ and ‘why’ this went so sideways and turned so deadly.President trump had left orderly withdrawal plans.... but because ‘everything trump did was bad’.... they had to be tossed aside by these two boobs....and they knew better....and the result was disastrous.
And so-no-it isn’t too late, or of ‘no benefit’, to look back at what happened there, either.
Let’s hope so- because there are still all sorts of gold-star families who don’t have answers-and feel as if they were mistreated by the Bidens- and the Biden administration- in the wake of those deaths at Abby gate.
Those are the families who stood on the tarmac of Andrews air force base and watched a disinterested Joe Biden check his watch every few minutes as the flag-draped coffins of their loved ones were returned home-
Then- insult to injury- had to stand there as jill and this jackass told them about how ‘beau died’...and so...we know what you’re going thru.
Beau died of cancer-years later- and stateside- surrounded by family.
Their loved ones died in a terror attack that never should have occurred- because Biden and his team of idiots should have kept Bagram air base open and managed the withdrawal from there- not from a chaotic and public Kabul international airport.
And that was just one of the mistakes made by these well-known Washington boobs- named Joe Biden and Anthony Blinken.
Bottom line:joe and jill were always so worried about their legacy- and yet- spend their decades in powerful positions as terrible people and uncaring ladder climbers.
And so- it’s poetic justice that Jill’s legacy is that of a spousal elder-abuser...and Joe’s legacy is one of cover ups, policy disasters, lies, and incompetence.
That! Is the legacy that this man deserves.
And a well-timed ‘cancer diagnosis’ that-in and of itself seems like just another series of cynical lies- doesn’t change that.
Trump, and comer, and everyone saying that the ‘cancer revelation’ just adds another layer of lies onto the already significant pile.
