Tension between former former Vice President Kamala Harris' team and former President Joe Biden's inner circle did not do Harris any favors, a new book by CNN anchor Jake Tapper and Axios political correspondent Alex Thompson reveals.

Tapper spent 4+ years being one of the democrats' corporate media collaborators covering for Biden and ridiculing anyone who *dared* suggest Joe was suffering cognitive decline. Now that it's "safe" to say it out loud Tapper is frantically trying to rewrite history and exonerate himself by placing all the blame on Biden's inner circle.

It's one the sleaziest moves ever in an era of superabundant sleaze within media and politics. If Tapper had even a single gram of integrity he'd die of shame over his own behavior.

Jake is not a real journalist. I hope his book flops.

Is there anyone that REALLY had no idea how bad biden was mentally? Actually there was, my step dad. He was #SHOCKED PICACHU over bidens debate. I've no doubt Kamala HATED having to act like biden was cognizant.

Kamala Harris certainly made her share of mistakes during the 2024 campaign.

They included:

1. Choosing the wrong running mate.

2. Giggling too much to be taken seriously as a Presidential candidate.

3. Unable to explain her economic policies.

4. Unable to disassociate herself from the Biden administration & Biden himself.

However despite her flaws Harris wasn't really to blame for the Democrats defeat. She was incidental to it. At best Harris was a compromise candidate who wasn't really anyone's 1st choice. She shouldn't have been nominated to begin with. But that wasnt her fault tho.

Biden was ultimately the cause of the Democrats defeat because of his stubborn refusal to step down even tho he may have been aware of his cognitive & physical decay/decline. The bastard destroyed his own party.

Nope, its more than that, it's  Biden destroying border security and allowing men into women's sports and bathrooms....and climate alarmists.

They were the real issues.
