How Groupthink Protected Biden and Re-elected Trump

This episode is about a seemingly simple question: Was there a Joe Biden cover-up?
Like a lot of people, I was worried about Biden’s age when he ran for president in 2020. So after he won, I found myself continuously asking top White House staffers: How’s the president? How is he in meetings? What’s his energy like?
I always got the same answer: He’s great. Completely in command. His energy is amazing.
These are people I had known for a long time. I didn’t think they were lying to me. But the harder question, in retrospect, was whether they were lying to themselves.
