President-elect Donald Trump is forcing the Democratic politicians who spent years lying about President Biden’s senility to take their bitter medicine, but we’re more concerned about the toady media who played along.
Trump on Monday posted a video showing clip after cringe-worthy clip of Democratic leaders from Rep. Nancy Pelosi to Homeland Security chief Alejandro Mayorkas denying again and again that Biden was mentally and physically deteriorating, claiming he was “sharp,” “on his game,” “focused” and that “his age is an asset.”
Every last one deserves scorn, but so do the journalists who not only let these fantastical fibs go unchallenged, but even parroted the lies: Biden was showing no signs of mental decline, they insisted — and it was offensive, ignorant and borderline bigoted to even suggest otherwise.
The entire idea that Biden was anything but healthy — virile, even — was treated as a right-wing, tin-foil-hat talking point.
The public wasn’t buying it: Back in February, 86% of Americans thought Biden was too old to serve a second term because they had watched his decline happen in real time, and over the course of several years.
Way back in 2022, some 75% of Democratic voters wanted someone other than Biden to run in 2024.
But the “Biden is fine” charade continued even after special counsel Robert Hur said a jury would see Biden as an “elderly man with a poor memory,” and Biden himself began repeatedly calling world leaders by the names of their dead predecessors.
The White House smeared all video proof of Biden’s decline as “cheap fakes” and edited transcripts to erase signs of his constant memory issues.
And at every turn, spineless, in-the-tank journos obediently did Team Biden’s propagandistic dirty work — right up until the debate, when Biden’s senility became too unmistakable to continue denying.
Now they’re acting bashful, but it’s far too late to salvage their shredded credibility.
Ex-MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan says he was “embarrassingly wrong” to say “Republicans will regret … helping spread the distorted image of [Biden] as a guy who is totally out of it” leading up to the debate.
Progressive journalist Matt Yglesias said he “thought Joe Biden was going to prove his doubters wrong.”
Is it better or worse if they actually believed it?
Dem-friendly journalists saw the same evidence as the rest of us that Biden was compromised, and instead of being skeptical, asking questions and putting the White House’s feet to the fire — doing their jobs — they joined the crusade to gaslight America.
Incoming Trump press secretary Karoline Leavitt says she intends to change up who gets preferred access to White House briefings — allowing in non-traditional voices like podcasters.
Since the legacy media completely and willfully failed to cover one of the biggest stories of this decade, that the president of the United States was unfit for office from Day 1 and his entire staff was hiding it, that seems like a fair shake.
No one who perpetuated, concealed or ignored this grotesque scandal should ever live it down.
