Original Sin
The Spin
Democratic narrative
Biden loyalists betrayed the American people by hiding the truth about the former president's decline. "Original Sin" exposes how his inner circle concealed his cognitive deterioration, silenced dissent, and manipulated the 2024 race — all to maintain control. Their cover-up backfired, helping usher in Trump’s return to power. The book makes a searing case that Biden’s gravest mistake wasn’t just running for reelection — it was running in the first place.
Republican narrative
“Original Sin” confirms what millions already knew: Joe Biden was never fit to serve, and the Democratic elite knew it — but lied to the public to cling to power and stop Trump. Party insiders, media allies, and even Biden’s family enforced a ruthless code of silence while a senile president occupied the Oval Office. This wasn’t political miscalculation — it was an outright conspiracy to deceive the public and subvert democracy. Now, those responsible want to pretend it never happened.
Establishment-critical narrative
“Original Sin” masquerades as fearless journalism, but it’s really an act of media damage control — an attempt by insiders like Tapper to rewrite their role in a years-long deception. Biden’s decline was obvious long before 2024, yet the press dismissed valid concerns as partisan noise to maintain access and avoid helping Trump. Now, with the damage done, the same journalists who enabled the cover-up are cashing in by pretending to expose it. The scandal isn’t just Biden’s decline — it’s the media’s complicity in hiding it.
Narrative D
“Original Sin” is opportunistic fiction dressed up as insider reporting. With its parade of anonymous sources and recycled Beltway gossip, the book offers a shallow, self-serving narrative that lets the true enablers of America's political crisis escape unscathed. Rather than confront their own complicity, these career commentators spin a convenient myth, shifting blame onto a decent, principled man they never truly understood. It’s not truth — it’s theater, crafted to sell copies, not illuminate history.
