A recent poll showed that more than half of Americans believe that there has been a concerted effort to cover up President Joe Biden’s severe cognitive decline, and Democrats were involved in the scheme.

According to the YouGov/the Times survey released this week, 54% of registered voters believe that there was “a cover-up of President Joe Biden’s health,” while 30% deny the existence of the coverup and 16% are unsure.
While it is shocking that this number is not higher, it is clear that the results likely fell along party lines — with many Democrats likely believing the comments from Democrats that Biden took a sudden turn for the worse.
Meanwhile, the poll also asked another question to those who believe there was a coverup — who do they think participated in it?
“To what extent, if at all, were the following involved in covering up Biden’s health?” the second poll question read.
Of that 54%, 92% believe that Vice President Kamala Harris was at least “a little involved” in the coverup. Another 88% believe that the mainstream media was at least “a little involved,” while another 95% believe that White House staff were at least “a little involved” in the coverup.
- Kamala Harris: “A great deal” 68%; “Somewhat” 17%; “A little” 7%, “Not at all” 4%, “Not sure” 4%
- The Media: “A great deal” 59%, “Somewhat” 20%, “A little” 9%, “Not at all” 8%, “Not sure” 4%
- White House Staff: “A great deal” 77%, “Somewhat” 14%, “A little” 4%, “Not at all” 1%, “Not sure” 3%

The survey was conducted between July 22-23, sampling 1,170 registered voters, and has a 3.2-point margin of error.
Meanwhile, it is clear to most rational Americans that Biden has been in cognitive decline for some time, and it definitely started even before he began his campaign for president — as the incident that forced Democrats to acknowledge the problem was Biden’s poor performance in the debate, but his mannerisms and inability to form coherent sentences were plainly visible long before that. If a coverup of his health is acknowledged, it is nearly impossible to make the claim that Harris, the mainstream media and White House staffers were not involved — as they spend a significant amount of time around Biden behind the scenes.
Beyond that, Biden’s cognitive decline was even acknowledged in Special Counsel Robert Hur’s report released in February 2024, where he characterized the president as an “elderly man with a poor memory.”
Democrats have used today’s hearing with Special Counsel Hur to publicly flog him for calling Biden a “well meaning, elderly man with a poor memory”.
Here’s what they don’t understand-
WE DIDN’T NEED HUR TO SAY IT!
Every American with 2 eyes and half a brain can tell that JOE…

As Sen. JD Vance (R-OH), former President Donald Trump’s running mate, stated earlier this week, “Harris lied” to the American people about Biden’s condition.
“Kamala Harris lied about it, my Senate Democratic colleagues lied about it, the media lied about it,” he told a crowd at an Ohio rally. “Every single person who saw Joe Biden knew that he wasn’t capable of doing the job. And for three years, they said nothing until he became political dead weight.”
Vance has made similar comments at numerous events, as have many other conservatives.
JD Vance on Kamala Harris: “She signed up for every single one of Joe Biden’s failures and she lied about his mental capacity to serve as president.”
