Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson's book has already generated a national debate about whether the White House deceived the public about the president’s cognitive state and how Biden’s late exit from the race undermined the Democratic Party’s chances of stopping Trump.

Jake Tapper admitted the Biden White House lied about the "cheap fakes" claim nearly a year after CNN pushed the talking point to viewers while the president was seeking re-election.
