Conservative historian and scholar, Victor Davis Hanson, has released a new video in which he goes after CNN’s Jake Tapper for his new book about Joe Biden’s mental decline, calling out Tapper and other members of the media for ignoring the story until now.
Hanson notes that the reason this is happening now is because Biden now has no power so he is no longer useful to the left.
He goes so far as to suggest that Tapper should be out of a job over this. He asks where Tapper was on issues like the Russia collusion hoax and the Hunter Biden laptop.
Partial transcript via the Daily Signal:
Why didn’t Jake Tapper write this a year ago? Because he knows what would’ve happened. Somebody in the White House would’ve called up and said, “Tapper, no one from CNN is gonna get a seat at a press conference. There’s not gonna be any CNN interview.” So he backed down.
And now in a very cowardly fashion, now he comes out and he is blaming the White House cover-up. But what he doesn’t tell us is the White House cover-up would have been impossible had not CNN, MSNBC, PBS, NBC, ABC, CBS all conspired with the White House staff to downplay—not just downplay Biden’s cognitive decline but attack people.
Bottom line: They had more interest in protecting this left-wing administration who was using this waxen effigy of Joe Biden and for someone’s purposes—we don’t know who was running the country, who was giving him the autopen executive orders. We have no idea who those people are. We have a suspicion that it was the Obama crowd.
But nevertheless, they didn’t care about that. They did not care about that. All they knew is that this was a left-wing agenda and it had to be preserved by any means necessary. And that included lying, lying, covering up, and worst of all, demonizing and attacking people who sought to tell the truth about Joe Biden.
You can watch the short and/or long versions of the video below. Here’s the short version:
Victor Davis Hanson absolutely demolishes Jake Tapper: “One of the greatest acts of moral duplicity I’ve seen in my lifetime.”
Brutal. And 100% accurate:
“Joe Biden has got cancer. He’s written off. He’s in decline. The family is disgraced. It’s easy now to write about that.”… pic.twitter.com/SoQBSodVH8

This is the long version:
Tapper knows everything Victor Davis Hanson says here is true, he just doesn’t care.
