    How is it an "original sin"?  That title makes no sense.

    Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson titled their book Original Sin: President Biden's Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again to reflect their central argument: that President Joe Biden’s decision to run for reelection in 2024, despite evident physical and cognitive decline, was a fundamental and catastrophic error akin to the theological concept of "original sin."

    In Christian theology, original sin refers to the fall of Adam and Eve, an act of disobedience that tainted humanity with inevitable consequences. Similarly, the authors frame Biden’s choice to pursue a second term—coupled with efforts by his inner circle to conceal his deteriorating health—as the pivotal mistake that set off a chain of events leading to the Democrats’ defeat and Donald Trump’s return to power.

    The title draws a parallel to Greek tragedy, where a protagonist’s attempt to avoid their fate seals it. Tapper and Thompson argue that Biden’s hubris, fueled by a belief that only he could defeat Trump, and the subsequent "gaslighting and denial" by his team, created a political tragedy. The term "original sin" encapsulates the initial, irreversible decision that, in their view, doomed the Democratic campaign, highlighting themes of accountability, deception, and the consequences of ignoring reality.

    Politician wanting to retain power, particularly in light of a fairly successful first term, is not new nor is it original. It's a horse shit fucking explanation wherever you sourced it from, and was specifically designed to sell books so fuck that guy

    Makes total sense for Brandon to have announced at his inauguration that he was going to be a one term POTUS and even more sense to have announced it after the midterms in 2022 and been a lame duck for either 4 or 2 years. Sound political strategy.

    The only folks to blame for the current shit show are repubs, COOTWH voters and non-voters. They own this disgrace. Not Brandon. Not Kamala. Not the dem party and certainly not dem voters.

    Own your fucking mess.

    Not interested in what?  Understanding that Joe Biden was in severe decline and people tried to hide it despite him being unfit to be president?   Seems pretty important...and I will say it seemed obvious to anyone that wasn't a Dem lemming.

    That’s an extraordinary reach. I know exactly what the original sin was. Dumb name.

    Okay, blah, blah, blah Brandon is/was in serious mental decline. Question is, how do you square this “political crime of the century” with 73M+ voters and the repub party supporting someone as fucking unqualified, on so many levels, with all that we know to be facts, not once, but twice to be POTUS? As bad as Brandon’s debate performance was, “they’re eating the cats. They’re eating the dogs. They’re eating the pets of the people that live there,” is/was far worse.

    This is the double standard, moving of the goal posts and holding one side to higher standard that we reality based citizens speak of.

    ’Murica is in a serious decline but hey, only 1,341 days to go. Maybe.
