Biden struggled to film 2024 campaign videos amid declining health, new book claims: 'The man could not speak'
Former President Joe Biden struggled to get through filming campaign videos, or quick, filmed keynote addresses for various groups during the 2024 campaign due to his declining health, according to a new book.
The book, "Original Sin: President Biden’s Decline, Its Cover-up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again," said that Biden stumbled through filming campaign videos so much that the footage was ultimately deemed "unusable." The nonfiction book was published Tuesday and is authored by journalists Jake Tapper of CNN and Alex Thompson of Axios.
In one case, Biden’s team sought to film a video for the campaign for ads on television in a high school gym where people could ask questions like they would at a town hall meeting.
"The campaign was trying to make it look like the president was out there taking off-the-cuff questions from voters in public," the book said. "But the event was closed to reporters, and the campaign had the full list of questions that people would ask."
However, Biden had so much "trouble" getting through the questions that his team decided to scrap the footage. While some attributed challenges to poor lighting in the gym, the book said that others identified Biden as the real problem.....

Biden had the questions that were going to be asked. Biden did so poorly that the campaign scrapped the footage. How dishonest. Everyone their was Biden supporter and Biden had the question beforehand and he still couldn't do it. No wonder that they needed several cuts in his 60 second challenge to Trump to debate.
