Washington- A few days ago, the book “The original sin: President Biden’s deterioration and covering up and his catastrophic choice to run again”, which is separated in how to cover up leaders Democratic PartyIn collusion with the family of the former US president جهنيTo deteriorate his mental and health condition during the last two years of his rule.
In 319 pages and 18 chapters, the two veteran American journalists Jake Taber (broadcaster CNN) and Alex Thomson (chief correspondent of Axios in the capital Washington) presented details that had not been revealed before this cover -up, and how this contributed to the return of the president Donald Trump For the White House.
The book – released by Bingen Publishing House – is based on more than 200 interviews, most of which are with democrats close to Biden, and almost all of them were held after the end of the 2024 elections.
The beginning of the deterioration
The book calls for moments when Biden did not recognize people close to him, such as his assistant Mike Donlleone, or the famous actor George Clooney. He argues that there are two copies of the former president, one “working” and the other “non -operating”. The circle, close to it, protects the “ineffective” version from appearing in front of the Americans, including many officials White House.
The book attributes the beginning of the deterioration of the case of Biden, and his loss of the sequence of his ideas in important talks, and forgetting important dates, including the death of his eldest son Po, to the beginnings of 2023 (i.e. the third year in his rule), and although everyone was confirmed, Biden made one of the most fateful decisions in his political history by announcing the elections of 2024, amid desperate efforts to hide the extent of this deterioration.
The great disaster of Biden and Democrats appeared in his presidential debate with Trump on June 27, 2024, which revealed to the Americans and the world the size of deception and the depth of covering up surrounding Biden’s candidacy and his inability to perform his dangerous duties, led by being the Supreme Commander of the American Armed Forces.
The authors Taber and Thompson take us to the closed private discussions in the Democratic Party departments, and the American rule of government, and reveal the size of the problem and the number of people who know about it, whether from the White House employees from the highest levels to the lowest, or from leaders Congress To the ministers, from the rulers of the states to the donors and stars Hollywood.
And they considered that the truth shows that Biden’s decision to recomer – and if it seemed to narcissism and recklessly recklessly – had no historical similar precedents in a lot of accountability, and the investigation that may continue for decades.
They refer to a harsh paradox committed by the leaders of the Democrats. In the name of defeating what they called an existential threat to democracy represented in Trump, they denied the existence of health and mental problems that seemed clear to the American people in recent years, which led to the judgment of Democrats defeat.
Biden’s decision was to restore the candidacy what the authors described as “the original sin” for him, and they considered that the support of these leaders, so an unpredictable prelude to paying a heavy price that already threatens America’s democracy, is Trump’s historical return to power.
Closed
The authors say that “what the world saw in Biden’s only debate (with Trump) was not an anomalous situation, was not an unprepared or excessive person in preparing or somewhat tired. It was a natural result of a 81 -year -old man whose capabilities are diminished for years. He made Biden, his family and his team their self -interest and their fear of another term of Trump justifies the attempt to put an old man -disturbed in some Sometimes- in the Oval Office for another 4 years. “
They mentioned that Biden was protected from an isolated and closed group surrounding him all the time, led by his wife, Jill and his son Hunter, and ancient assistants who called them the “Political Bureau”, referring to the Communist Parties Command Committee in soviet union.
They added that the former democratic Senator from Michigan, Deby Stapino, asked Ms. Jill Biden an indirect question after the debate, saying: “We do not know if this is something that happens for one time, or that something else is happening with the president.
The book included a signal for a moment in which the Biden family considered that it has what is necessary to carry out its tasks and progress for the re -election. After his good performance in the “Al -Ittihad case speech” in March 2024, some of the White House aides were very disturbed when Biden addressed a class of high school students later with an unwritten spontaneous word, and one of the assistants shouted, saying: “What we have just seen? He will not work and cannot do that! This is madness.”
Days after the book was published, interest in it and his focus on Omar Biden and his health, after the Biden office said – in a statement – that the former president was diagnosed with an advanced state of prostate cancer that extended and reached his bones, and that he and his family “are reviewing treatment options with his doctors.”
The diagnosis sparked a stream of good support and wishes for Biden, including Trump’s tweet on his “Truth Social” platform, saying, “Melania and I are sad to hear the recent medical diagnosis of Den.

A stormy meeting
The Axius website also published a voice recording from Biden’s interview with Special Adviser Robert Hor about his dealings with secret documents, the investigations that the investigative team chief chose not to charge Biden to misrepresent confidential information in part because of the way the jury would look at his age, which caused the anger of Democrats at the time, especially after he said that Biden was “an elderly man and a good intention and a bad memory.”
In the period before Biden’s decision in July 2024 to withdraw from the presidentSenate And a former Biden colleague for more than 30 years, who traveled to Dilayer to conduct a difficult conversation.
The authors wrote that Shomer told Biden that he would get only 5 votes if there was a secret polling for Democrats in the Senate, and warned him that he “will be recorded in American history as one of the worst personalities.” “Do you think Kamala can win?” Biden replied, “I don’t know. I just know that you cannot win.”

Biden and his wife defended his performance as president – in a joint interview with a program on the ABC network that took place a few days ago – and rejected what he considered allegations of his suffering from the cognitive and mental deterioration during his last year in his position. “The people who wrote this book were not in the White House with us, and they did not see how difficult an atmosphere was working every day.”
Biden’s office also criticized what was stated in the book, and one of his assistants stated that “we are still waiting for anything that explains where Biden was making a presidential decision, or where national security was threatened, or where he was unable to do his work. Rather, evidence indicates the opposite; he was a very effective president.”
In the end, the two writers reminded the readers of what Biden pledged when he launched his successful attempt for the 2020 elections with a declared goal of saving the nation from a second presidential term for Trump, and becomes the president of a transitional period to be a bridge that paves the way for a new generation of democratic leaders. Biden did not fulfill his pledge, but rather made a bridge between the first and second Trump presidency.
