Biden’s Senility and His Fully Deep-State Presidency
Sometimes I have to pinch myself to accept that what happened in the United States — in the nation that leads the free world — between 2020 and today actually occurred. It is clear from the new book — Original Sin: President Biden’s Decline, Its Cover Up and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again — that even the authors of this seminal analysis of the period cannot quite accept what took place. As the authors themselves admit, the cognitive dissonance is simply too strong.
If you are a Democrat, you want to believe that the Democrats are morally good. You want to believe that you are intelligent that you and cannot be easily manipulated or tricked. You want to believe that the U.S. is a genuine democracy and that its president — your Democrat president — is a good and competent man. You want to believe that people in high office will “do the right thing” and abide by the U.S. Constitution.
This book proves that, in relation to Joe Biden, none of these beliefs were ever justified. Democrats had clear evidence that Biden was senile and incapable of being president but they were gas-lit into thinking otherwise or they forced themselves to believe otherwise in order to cope with the cognitive dissonance. And in some cases, they knew the truth but didn’t care. In 2021, in the first year of his administration, Biden did not take a cognitive examination, patently because his aids knew what the result would be. The book quotes an anonymous source in this regard, who tries to justify the deceit: “He just had to win and then he could disappear for four years — he’d only have to show proof of life once in a while.” Apparently, “His aides could pick up the slack.” It’s as though they’re Soviet apparatchiks after the death of Brezhnev. “We’re in serious trouble,” they think. “We need a decrepit old man whom we can control. Interestingly, the authors refer to Biden’s court as the “politburo.” Hence it’s no accident that Biden’s presidency has been called “The First Fully Deep-State Presidency.” So when it comes to assessing blame for the Biden Administration’s open-borders policy, it should fall squarely on Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas, not Biden.
Shockingly, even the authors of this book cannot accept the reasonable conclusion that can be drawn from the evidence they’ve presented; that Biden had dementia all along. They write: “Readers who are convinced that Joe Biden was little more than a husk from the very beginning of his presidency, barely capable of stringing two sentences together, will not find support for that view here,” while they add that the book will not satisfy those who wish to believe that rumours of Biden’s deterioration was simple “right-wing propaganda.”
However, the first position is a straw man version of what many people actually think. Of course, Biden’s dementia worsened between 2020 and June 2024, when his disastrous debate performance with Trump led to Biden being eventually pressured to pull out of the race. But the point is that he was already senile, and thus incapable of taking the oath of office, let alone actually functioning as president, when he was elected in 2020.
In 2007, when Biden wasn’t yet vice-president, the signs of the beginnings of senility — forgetting words, getting mixed up — were already there, with Biden hilariously referring to Obama as “the first mainstream African American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy.” Ten years later, in 2017, when Biden commissioned a ghost writer to pen his autobiography, his conversations were taped. These tapes reveal that “He grasped to remember things, he sometimes had difficulty speaking, and he frequently lost his train of thought.” When the authorities looked into prosecuting Biden for mishandling classified documents, they effectively realised that the jury would likely conclude that he was a senile old man who didn’t mean to do anything wrong.
Accordingly, the conclusion that this book daren’t quite reach is that the Democrats, knowing that Biden was senile but thinking that they might be able to convincingly cover it up, did indeed put “Sleepy Joe” up as a “husk” candidate whom they could control, in a way that they obviously couldn’t with someone mentally competent such as Bernie Sanders. However, the Democrat machine did not anticipate just how quickly Biden’s mental acuity would completely collapse nor how difficult it would be to conceal this.
At the presidential debate with Trump in June 2024, no amount of nonsense about Biden having an “off-day” could obscure what everybody witnessed, so the old man had to go. Even then they couldn’t publically admit that he was senile; there were merely euphemisms about his age. But the lying gets worse. This book was published on May 20, 2025. On the same day it was revealed that Biden is suffering from advanced prostate cancer. This is a man who, as president, would have been having regular medical checks. It seems almost conceivable, therefore, that Biden’s aids didn’t know he had prostate cancer. But they covered it up.
The book points out that there have been many cover-ups with regard to the health of senior U.S. politicians, including presidents: Woodrow Wilson had a stroke in 1919 which left him incapacitated until 1921; John F. Kennedy simply lied about his Addison’s disease, and there is suspicious absence of photos of President Roosevelt dancing. However, the Biden cover-up occurred in the age of mass media and the internet. It involved not just lying to but gas-lighting people; attempting to make them think that their own eyes were deceiving them. Moreover, it clearly took place for nakedly partisan reasons: to have a marionette presidential candidate via whom Machiavellian manipulators could get Trump out of the White House.
There are many fascinating asides in this book. There is evidence that emotional trauma, such as losing your spouse, can speed up dementia. In this regard, the book notes that the death of Beau, Joe Biden’s son, in 2015 may have exacerbated symptoms that were already beginning. The stress caused by the behaviour of Beau’s prodigal brother Hunter would have further contributed to Biden’s decline. Biden’s wife Jill comes across as attention-seeking, devious and, gradually, increasingly the power behind her husband’s throne. At first she is reluctant to be in the limelight but she obviously learns to enjoy it and then finds that she can’t give it up. She is an American Lady Macbeth, ruthlessly ensuring that her husband — in this case, her sick and unsuitable-for-the-job husband — retains the presidency. And, of course, the book is replete with anecdotes about the extent of Biden’s senility while in office.
But it is not just in the U.S. where this kind of cover-up and gas-lighting is occurring, in a context in which it is easier than ever to obtain information. At the time of writing, the rumours about U.K. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer being a homosexual — that he has a “lavender marriage” with a “beard” — are being further evidenced to be true by.
The British media dare not connect the dots. Prince Harry has essentially revealed that the King has terminal cancer, yet the pliant media says nothing, acting just like Pravda. Putting a senile and dying man into the highest office is what they were doing shortly before the Soviet Union collapsed. It really does make one muse over the future of the Woke Deep State.
