Jake Tapper's coverage of his book, co-written with Alex Thompson, about the former president's diminished mental capacity is prompting criticism and mockery on multiple fronts.

“Original Sin: President Biden’s Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again,” which Tapper co-authored with Axios’ Alex Thompson, chronicles what its authors describe as Biden’s deterioration during his time in the White House, as well as his reluctance to drop out of the 2024 presidential race.
