Michael Goodwin’s latest commentary for the New York Post, titled “The cracks in the Dem party are evident as Biden’s scam-paign shatters” is a spot-on description of how Joe Biden’s cognitive issues, and severe decline as time went on, was hidden from the public by the White House…and our mostly compromised, complicit media.
Here are a few salient excerpts (but I urge you to use the above link and read every word):
Watching Joe Biden take a daily pounding from fellow Democrats and former media co-conspirators is almost enough to make you feel sorry for him.
Almost.
The president’s house of cards is collapsing, and not just because he had “a bad night” at the debate.
It’s collapsing because, as the late economist Herb Stein observed, “If something cannot go on forever, it will stop.”
In this case, the “something” was a scam, a pretense that Biden was a healthy man qualified to tackle the most important and demanding job in the world.
He never was.
Suddenly, questions, doubts and demands are not only acceptable, they are required.
He held the fewest press conferences and took the most vacation days, at his Delaware homes.
A fair, functioning media would have been suspicious about the repeated disappearing acts and demanded answers.
Why can’t we ask him questions?
Why won’t he sit for extended interviews like other presidents did?
Or this one: Can he still speak without a teleprompter?
The racket ended only because Biden’s debate flop served as a giant reveal about his condition.
Yet Americans should not be confused about why his media supporters are turning against him.
It’s not because they’re worried about the nation or whether the commander in chief can answer the proverbial 3 a.m. phone call.
It’s only because they hate Donald Trump more than they love America.
If they were worried about the good of the country, Dems and the press corps would have raised their concerns about a second Biden term earlier.
They would have taken their cue from his ducking them and his policy disasters, such as the open border and budget-busting inflation.
They would have cited his historically low approval numbers as signs he was in trouble with voters.
And they would have seen the desperation in the way his Department of Justice corrupted law enforcement and the courts to knock Trump out by locking him up.
Calls for him to pass the torch were nonexistent — until the debate.
Now, suddenly, it’s an emergency because . . . Trump.
(Biden’s) cognitive and physical declines are now established facts in the minds of more Americans than ever, and could resurface any time he ventures into public.
Moreover, his policy failures are permanent, and there is next to zero hope he can improve his approval ratings.
That’s not to say the November cake is baked.
But there can be no doubt that the debate debacle and the Dems’ civil war are reshaping the race in Trump’s favor.
Serves them right.
Does that paint an accurate picture of what has gone on over the past four years regarding Joe Biden and our media?
Does it make sense that the only reason these same media are suddenly talking about what a cognitive mess Joe Biden is and how disastrous his re-election campaign will be, is their fear that the public no longer can be duped into believing otherwise and will reject him in November, thus putting the feared/despised Donald Trump back in the Oval office?
If not, please advise me on what other explanation(s) you have. Because, to tell you the truth, they keep eluding me.
