Wonderful title for the book.
Very important subject, and many true criticisms.
Too bad it is written by the huge hypocrit who while
interviewing Lara Trump kept talking over her and
telling her she was wrong and had no standing to
try pointing out Joe Biden's dementia.

From two of America’s most respected journalists, an unflinching and explosive reckoning with one of the most fateful decisions in American political history: Joe Biden’s run for reelection despite evidence of
his serious decline—amid desperate efforts to hide the extent of that deterioration

In Greek tragedy, the protagonist’s effort to avoid his fate is what
seals his fate. In 2024, American politics became a Greek tragedy.

Joe Biden launched his successful 2020 bid for the White House with the
stated goal of saving the nation from a second Trump presidential term.
He, his family, and his senior aides were so convinced that only he
could beat Trump again, they lied to themselves, allies, and the public
about his condition and limitations. At his debate with Trump on June
27, 2024, the consequences of that deception were exposed to the world.
It was shocking and upsetting.

Now the full, unsettling truth is being told for the first time. Jake
Tapper and Alex Thompson take us behind closed doors and into private conversations between the heaviest of hitters, revealing how big the
problem was and how many people knew about it. From White House staffers
at the highest to lowest levels, to leaders of Congress and the Cabinet,
from governors to donors and Hollywood players, the truth is finally
being told. What you will learn makes President Biden’s decision to run
for reelection seem shockingly narcissistic, self-delusional, and
reckless—a desperate bet that went bust—and part of a larger act of extended public deception that has few precedents. The story the authors
tell raises fundamental issues of accountability and responsibility that
will continue for decades.

The irony is biting: In the name of defeating what they called an
existential threat to democracy, Biden and his inner circle ensured it,
tossing aside his implicit promise to serve for only one term, denying
the existence of health issues the nation had been watching for years,
dooming the Democrats to defeat. The decision to run again, the Original
Sin of this president, led to a campaign of denial and gaslighting,
leading directly to Donald Trump's return to power and all that has
happened as a consequence. Rarely does hubris meet nemesis more
explosively. Wherever you stand on the political spectrum, Original Sin
is essential reading.
