When Biden announced he was dropping out of the race, nobody was surprised. But his reason came as a shock. Biden, unwilling to admit the obvious, claimed he was stepping aside to “unite” the Democratic Party. Really? That was the problem with him running for a second term? It had nothing to do with the fact that he is suffering from cognitive decline?
Although he didn’t say it, we all know that is why he quit the race. The Democratic Party has stopped talking about his decline.
But we all know that he’s been sick for years. It must have been obvious to his inner circle, especially those working closely with him. Soon after he quit the race, Kamala Harris announced she was the party’s nominee. Nobody thinks she didn’t know Biden was ill. And now, polls are emerging revealing what Americans think of Joe’s usurping VP.
From The Daily Caller:
More than three-fifths of Americans believe Vice President Kamala Harris was involved in covering up President Joe Biden’s declining health, two polls found…The polls, conducted after Biden’s withdrawal but before his Wednesday speech to the country, showed a supermajority of Americans think Harris was involved in concealing Biden’s declining cognitive and physical condition.
A poll by YouGov for The Times showed that 54% of respondents believed that Biden’s health issues were covered up, with 68% of those respondents saying they felt Harris had “a great deal” to do with concealing the truth about Biden’s health.

Americans Aren’t Buying the Narrative
Democrats have a bigger problem than they realize. Biden’s dropout was due to his obvious decline in health. Everyone was talking about it, demanding he step down. No matter what he says now, that is the reason he quit the race. Which demands answers from Harris, not a campaign to be president. If everyone could see Biden was sick, why didn’t she say something?
Just days before Biden quit, Kamala was convinced he was fit for the job. Yet now, she is happily taking his place? That is not going over well with Americans. And a large majority believe she—like everyone else at the White House—knew Biden was unwell. Furthermore, voters believe Harris had a hand in covering it up.
The Numbers Don’t Lie
A YouGov poll showed that 68% of voters think Harris had a “great deal” to do with the cover-up. Another poll from The Democracy Institute revealed similar numbers, with 62% of voters saying Harris “lied” to the country about Biden’s health. That is terrible news for Democrats. It means Americans think Harris is a deceiver. How do you think that will go over in November?
For years, the White House claimed Biden was fine, even though we could see he wasn’t. After his disastrous debate with Trump, many Democrats said he was too impaired to run. Reports indicate that leading Democrats were meeting with Biden to force him out. Yet, his allies, including Harris, publicly stated he was healthy enough to run the race.
That only confirms our worst fears: Kamala Harris knew Joe Biden was ill and worked with Democrats to hide it from America. She was fine with Biden going up against Trump, even though she had seen his decline up close.
Voters won’t appreciate this and will assume she did it to advance her career.
Key Takeaways:
- New polls show that 3/5ths of Americans think Harris helped cover up Biden’s cognitive decline.
- She, like most Biden allies, supported Joe’s campaign just days before he dropped out.
- Democrats ignored signs of Biden’s decline for years because the administration said he was healthy.
