CNN’s Jake Tapper helped promulgate one of the greatest cover-ups in American history. Just because he decided to write a book four years later saying everything to the contrary doesn’t change that. Nothing will, argues Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words:”

“The locus classicus was Lara Trump, who said that he's obviously—as early as 2020—in decline. And he suggested that she was berating him for a childhood stutter, which was absolutely ridiculous.

“Why didn't Jake Tapper write this a year ago? Because he knows what would've happened. Somebody in the White House would've called up and said, ‘Tapper, no one from CNN is gonna get a seat at a press conference. There's not gonna be any CNN interview.’ 

“So, he backed down. And now in a very cowardly fashion, now he comes out and he is blaming the White House cover-up. But what he doesn't tell us is the White House cover-up would have been impossible had not CNN, MSNBC, PBS, NBC, ABC, CBS all conspired with the White House staff to downplay—not just downplay Biden's cognitive decline but attack people.”
