CNN’s Jake Tapper is such a horrible liar.
During a recent appearance on Pod Save America – the podcast that’s run by former Obama speechwriters – Tapper said that he covers Trump’s age and health obsessively because he and the rest of the media did such a bad job of covering Biden’s health.
That is not what happened.
Jake Tapper and the rest of the media actively covered up concerns about Biden’s age and health. When anyone else raised completely valid questions, Jake Tapper and other people in media accused them of being conspiracy theorists pushing cheap fakes.
Tapper is using his prior deception to justify his current deception.
The Daily Caller reported:
CNN anchor Jake Tapper said on “Pod Save America” Monday that he frequently covers President Donald Trump’s missteps on his show because he failed to adequately scrutinize former President Joe Biden’s decline.
While promoting his May book examining Biden’s physical and mental decline, Tapper acknowledged shortcomings in his own coverage. “Pod Save America” host Tommy Vietor asked Tapper how well he felt the media was covering Trump supposedly sleeping in meetings or stumbling in public.
“We cover it all the time on my show. All the time. And I think that is to a large degree because we saw what happened with Biden. And while we covered it, we didn’t cover it — maybe we didn’t ask as many questions as we should have at the time,” Tapper said. “And I think it is a legitimate question for any president of any age, but particularly anybody who is like in the range of being an octogenarian, right? We cover it all the time.”

He doesn’t even believe his own lies

Yeah, right. Tapper implies that if not for his dismal coverage of Biden, he would’ve been going easy on Trump. He was NEVER going to give fair coverage of Trump.

Jake Tapper seems to miss a lot of news stories still. By strange circumstance these stories are all unflattering to Democrats.
Who does he think he is fooling?— Big Fish (@BigFish3000) December 15, 2025
Jake is not fooling anyone. What he is doing is so obvious.
