Is Biden Merely a Figurehead? New Book ‘Original Sin’ Reveals Truth

The new book Original Sin implies the presence of an unsettling reality in the United States. An insider dared to reveal that the country was actually steered by a select few, with Joe Biden merely a high-ranking committee member. This depiction of Biden is a jarring mismatch to the image of an effective leader that one anticipates of a president.

Let’s recall Shakespeare’s King Lear. Around midway through the play, the clouds of mental decline begin to swirl around Lear. ‘You see me here, you gods, a poor old man, full of grief as age; wretched in both,’ he fumes and thus begins his descent into madness. The story is poignant because Lear, though flawed, was lucid at the beginning of his reign.

The crucial fact here: his blunders, stemming from sanity, led to disaster, not some abating mental health. As a result, the unwinding of his kingdom was entirely on his crown. Now, parallel this narrative with Biden’s, as the authors of Original Sin did. They insinuated that Biden, like Lear, carries the fate of his nation on his shoulders.

A shocking speculation follows: Unlike Lear, who started out on the throne under a clear mind, Biden might have been slipping mentally even before swearing the oath to office. If such was the case, Americans, groping in the dark, elected a president who was potentially unfit for duty from the get-go. A cold, clinical examination backs these assertions.

A chilling consequence surfaces. Since Obama waved his final goodbye from the White House in 2017, the nation might have been without a capable President. Debates may circle around whether Biden’s precarious re-election bid could be blamed on suspected mental instability, but the weight of leadership demands unwavering reliability, even at 2:00 AM during emergencies.

The whispers of 2024 painted a picture of a Biden that couldn’t meet such demands. An anonymous insider cited that ‘Five people were running the country’, indicating a heavy reliance on Biden’s aides. The president’s status, so it seemed, was relegated to being not much more than ‘a senior member of the board.’

The authors add more ominous insights in Original Sin. Biden’s early Biden-Trump tussle raised questions. How could this same man, within such a short span, duly execute the responsibilities of his elected position? It seemed almost impossible.

There’s evidence, at times subtle, that accused Biden of grappling with the job requirements from early on. Discussions recorded in the book noted that cabinet meetings under Biden were consistently ‘terrible and often awkward’. He depended heavily on prepared notes and pre-arranged responses, casting serious shadows over his competency.

It all culminated in an appalling incident. Midway through his presidential tenure, Biden engaged with the House Democratic Caucus with the apparent goal to garner support for a $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill. But when the time came, after delivering a series of mixed-up remarks, the ask was never made.

This left a burning question on the table: ‘Who the hell is running the country?’ An unnamed insider close to the Biden administration dared to put forward a response. In a damning evaluation, they echoed the sentiment that ‘Five people were running the country’, rather than the ostensibly elected leader, indicating Biden was merely a nominal figurehead.

In these characterizations of the Biden administration, it’s easy to sense a disturbing parallel with Lear’s descent into madness. While Lear’s madness was a dramatic device driving his kingdom into chaos, Biden’s potential incapacity, if the sources in Original Sin are to be trusted, threatens to drive a real-life country into analogous disorder.
