To the editor:
Jake Tapper, a CNN anchor, is being accused of treason by both conservatives and progressives. He’s been compared to Benedict Arnold for allegedly seeking personal gain.
Tapper was aware of former President Joe Biden’s mental health issues but chose to downplay them until he could profit from his book, “Original Sin: Biden’s Decline, Cover-Up, and Reelection.”
In another short story, the White House and its media allies condemned the February 2024 report by Robert Hur, who investigated whether Biden had committed a crime by taking home box loads of classified documents. Hur conducted a five-hour interview with Biden over two days and concluded that no criminal charges should be filed, as a a sympathetic, elderly man with poor memory would not be convicted.
This decision angered Americans who had endured hardships during Biden’s presidency. Despite Biden’s apparent mental decline, the Democratic Party wanted him to serve another four years until voters realized he lacked the mental capacity to lead effectively.
Pinch hitter Kamala Harris ascended to the batting position to replace the incapacitated Joe Biden without a competitive nominating process. Regrettably, Harris was unable to get on base. But that's another storyline!

Jake Tapper is facing criticism for allegedly disregarding former President Biden’s health concerns until he published his book, ‘Original Sin’. Conservatives and progressives have accused him of treason for this. However, if you’re interested in non-fiction and want to learn about the alleged cover-up of Biden’s health issues during his presidency and re-election campaign, Tapper’s book is a valuable resource.
