These talks reflect the depth of the physical deterioration of the 81-year president, especially pronounced spinal degeneration.
The book also states that the White House Advisors, despite concerns, decided to cover the right to avoid political damage before Donald Trump’s elections.

The fears culminated after the Biden tripped on the bag of sand at the American Air Force Academy in June 2023. A number of ruths were introduced, the Biden was more often wearing the staff, and the staff was accompanied by every step during the public appearances.
The President’s personal doctor, Kevin O’Connor, allegedly warned several times that the function harms Biden’s health and advocated for more time off. As the authors write, O’Connor knew and joke that “staff tries to kill biden”, while he “struggles to keep him in life.”
The White House earlier claimed that Biden’s walk slowed down the feet from 2020. year, but the doctor’s documentation from that period shows that fractures were completely earlier. Officially, most often as the cause cited significant arthritis spine.
The book is based on more than 200 interviews with democratic insiders, mostly performed after the 2024 elections. Years. The authors claim that both Biden and his family were determined to continue with the campaign, despite the physical and mental signs of declining.
However, a debacle in the Trump Church in June 2024. He was a turning point. After turbulent reactions within the Democratic Party, Biden retreated from the race three weeks later and supported Vice President Kamal Harris as a new candidate.
White house spokesman, in the commentary for Axios, rejected allegations from the book, stating that Biden’s examination showed a stiff gait, but without more serious consequences or therapy needs.
“Yes, there are physical changes due to aging, but no evidence points to mental incompetence. He was a very efficient president,” said from Biden’s team.
