Democrats Face Backlash Over Handling of Biden's Decline

Critics accuse Democratic leaders of downplaying President Biden's health issues and misleading the public during his presidency and 2024 campaign.

Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer is under fire for denying that Democrats misled the public about President Biden's mental and physical fitness during his presidency.
Former Obama adviser Van Jones and other commentators criticized Schumer's claims, calling them 'foolish' and warning of credibility damage for the Democratic Party.
Reports suggest that many Democratic lawmakers privately harbored concerns about Biden's health but refrained from publicly addressing them to avoid undermining his campaign.
Biden's performance during the 2024 presidential debate against Donald Trump intensified scrutiny, with some Democrats reportedly urging him to step down from the race afterward.
Democratic leaders, including Schumer, continue to defend Biden's legislative accomplishments while facing accusations of participating in a broader cover-up of his decline.
