The White House hid President Biden’s mental decline from the public for years. Aides kept meetings short, controlled his schedule, and even used tricks to cover up his struggles. They didn’t want Americans to see how confused he really was.
Biden needed fluorescent tape on the floor to walk straight. Staff marked his path so he wouldn’t get lost. They knew he couldn’t handle basic tasks alone. Even Kamala Harris’s team had a secret plan ready. They picked judges to swear her in if Biden’s heart stopped.
His team rescheduled events around his “good days and bad days.” They admitted he could only work six hours a day. Briefings were kept short because he couldn’t focus. Meetings after 4 p.m. were canceled. They treated him like a fragile old man, not a leader.
Biden relied heavily on teleprompters and note cards. When he went off-script, he made embarrassing mistakes. He forgot names, dates, and even his own son’s death year. A Hollywood voice coach tried to fix his weak, raspy voice. It didn’t work.
The White House lied to Biden about his job approval. They removed bad news from his daily briefings. Staff didn’t want him to know how low his ratings were. First lady Jill Biden tried to limit his press time. She feared he’d embarrass himself if questions went too long.
Top officials like Janet Yellen and Lloyd Austin met Biden less often. His inner circle kept visitors away. They didn’t trust him to handle tough discussions. Leaks from aides show they knew the truth: he wasn’t fit for the job.
Harris’s team was ready to take over at any moment. They hid their plans because admitting Biden’s weakness would hurt the Democrats. The media helped cover it up. They called concerns about his age “conspiracies” instead of reporting facts.
This cover-up put America in danger. A president who needs handlers isn’t really in charge. Voters deserved honesty, not tricks. Now we know why so many doubted Biden’s fitness. The truth was buried to protect power, not the people.
