The Biden administration’s once cozy relationship with the press has taken a sharp turn as concerns over the president’s health continue to mount. CNN, known for its favorable coverage of Biden, is now facing the reality that they can no longer shield him from scrutiny. During the first debate, attempts to stifle Trump inadvertently exposed Biden’s struggles, much to the surprise of many.
Jake Tapper, typically mild in his criticism of Biden, has now found himself unable to suppress his amusement at the campaign’s desperate attempts to defend the president’s mental acuity. The ludicrous argument citing Biden’s late-night activities as evidence of his sharpness is met with incredulity, leading even Tapper to openly chuckle at the absurdity.

The Biden camp’s reliance on such weak arguments is likened to juvenile squabbling, with their assertions being easily dismantled. Even the mention of an incident where Biden froze on stage, requiring assistance from Obama, underscores the campaign’s vulnerabilities.
The change in the press’s attitude towards Biden signals a significant shift in their willingness to challenge him. The once compliant media now openly mocks the flimsy defenses put forth by the administration, indicating a growing sense of frustration at being manipulated and misled. Whether this newfound scrutiny will persist remains uncertain, but for now, conservatives are reveling in the rare display of journalistic integrity.
