In a recent revelation, CNN anchor Jake Tapper and Axios' Alex Thompson have been under fire for their book, "Original Sin," which uncovers the alleged concealment of President Joe Biden's cognitive decline during his single presidential term.
Critics argue that Tapper and Thompson, who were once enthusiastic participants in the alleged deception of the American public, are now conveniently revealing the truth when it is safe to do so.
According to RedState, the book, despite its controversial authors, offers some intriguing insights. One such revelation that has been drawing attention is the reaction of Kamala Harris, former Vice President, to Anderson Cooper, a fellow CNN anchor, when he questioned her following Biden's disastrous June '24 presidential debate against Donald Trump. This debate is widely believed to have been the final blow to Biden's faltering reelection campaign.
Harris, it seems, did not take kindly to being held accountable for allegedly misleading voters about Biden's condition. In a profanity-laden outburst, which seems to be a common trait among Democrats these days, Harris reportedly referred to Cooper as a "motherfker" following a tense interview about Biden's catastrophic debate performance.
The book reveals that Harris made the derogatory comment after Cooper questioned her about Biden's cognitive health immediately after his disastrous performance in June, which sparked widespread panic and eventually led to Biden withdrawing from the race. "This motherfker doesnt treat me like the damn vice president of the United States," Harris reportedly said to her colleagues, according to "Original Sin."
Interestingly, Harris used the term "we" in her outburst, saying, "I thought we were better than that." This has led some to question whether she was admitting that Democrats and the media are essentially one and the same, part of the proverbial "we" she referenced.
Harris's behavior has been criticized by many, including outspoken conservative actor James Woods, who did not hold back in his critique. He suggested that Harris would have been more comfortable in a Waffle House brawl than in her role as an elected official.
Harris's readiness for the political limelight has been called into question, with her campaign being described as amateurish. Her potential future political ambitions, whether running for California governor or possibly making another presidential bid, may be haunted by these moments. Her juvenile antics, along with her inconsistent and often incoherent statements on topics beyond her intellectual capacity, are likely to remind voters of why they rejected her on election day.
Despite the controversy surrounding the authors, "Original Sin" has shed light on some of the inner workings and tensions within the Democratic party. It serves as a reminder of the importance of transparency and accountability in politics, and the potential consequences of failing to uphold these values.
