Top Democrats Had Secret 'Plan B' for Biden All Along
Matt Margolis | 2:02 PM on May 14, 2025 CNN commentator Scott Jennings dismantled the left’s latest narrative about Joe Biden’s cognitive decline. On Tuesday, the panel discussion turned white-hot when Jennings destroyed the narrative that Democrats were somehow blindsided by Biden’s disastrous debate performance and mental state. As Jennings noted, the idea that this was all some big surprise is not just dishonest — it’s insulting.
“The idea that we did not know about this for the years leading up to the presidential campaign… we all saw it with our own eyes,” Jennings said, exasperated. “Video after video, speech after speech, statement after statement, the Hurr report. The fact that we had people saying today, ‘Oh, I didn’t know, we had no idea,’ is outrageous.”
He’s right, of course. Here at PJ Media, we were covering Biden’s obviously diminished mental faculties during the 2020 campaign. The Democrats, however, pretended it wasn’t happening, and the media did its best to cover it up.
The segment began with CNN’s Abby Phillip reading a key excerpt from the upcoming book by Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson that revealed that then-Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer “wasn't concerned about Biden's acuity, but he was worried about the optics.”
