How Groupthink Protected Biden and Reelected Trump | The Ezra Klein Show

Jake Tapper is a huge disappointment!

What you meant to say was they were intentionally deceiving the American public about the physical and mental health of the sitting president. Groupthink is just a mother word for incompetence.

Hey EZRA where were u the last 4 years?! Never said anything but now u write a book and cash in on the backs of the democratic party... Disgusting shame on you!!

Ezra being shocked and stunned that he never saw what a large percentage of the population saw years in advance. That’s a performance worthy of an Oscar (or a public flogging for the gaslighting)

As a Brit I can say that if Biden was king in the UK then there would have been a regency!

This misses the point. Biden never should have ran for president in the first place. My heart sank in 2020, when Democratic candidates "circled the wagons" by giving Biden their delagates, because I knew that the party was doomed.

His inner circle, the DNC, and yes you in the media covered it up. Everyone saw it.

@Ezra Klein - Are you Lexington?

of course there was a coverup lol.

Study 1930s Third Reich in Germany. There you will find the answers.

Groupthink? I think it runs deeper than that.

Of course they were lying to you. And the reason you don’t believe it is - with respect - because you, Mr Tapper, the media critics of both parties & the majority of this country suffer from what is now an epidemic- willfull ignorance.. People are just unwilling to accept what is true - simply because it conflicts with their personal beliefs. HTH

Guy is promoting a book that ripped off "the Secret" and only contribution to the Green Energy YIMBY movement was deregulation and thinking Operation Warp Speed was a good thing yet can't see he himself is the groupthink.

You are also lying. The Easter Bunny, the literal Easter Bunny was running The White House. We all saw it on TV

It was a clear Biden wasn’t fit when he asked for a dead congresswoman when her name wasn’t on the teleprompter.

For years these reporters think they were so smart but they pretend to be stupid when it comes to Biden. They all should have been talking about this much soon than 2023 and 2024.

1. Lie
2. Get caught lying
3. Profit by telling a story about the lie

SPARE ME. There is nothing wrong with him other than he is an older man. It was a terrible debate - AND SHAME ON YOU. You should be talking about DonOLD. I am adding you to my list of names to AVOID.

Was there a coverup? That's hilarious

There is only one question IMO ... Are Tapper and Klein lying to us ... or to themselves? Think of the brain drain from the Democrat Party ... LIFETIME Democrats Elon Musk, Bill Ackman, Shaun Maguire, Tulsi Gabbard, RFK, Alan Dershowitz (AFTER 86 YEARS!!!!!!!) ANY Democrat who asks "why" is leaving the Party. The level of intellectual evasion necessary is so extreme that only the dishonest and mentally ill are left ... on the left ...

Biden had dementia in 2019, which is why they kept him on thr basement all campaign lomg. They all knew.

More gaslighting. 🙄

If the media want to regain some semblance of the respect they used to have (the election results show that no one believes them anymore), you have to be HONEST. Stop the doublespeak overdubbed over soft music, and just tell the obvious truth. There was a cover up. It may have been organized, or it may have been organic, but it plainly happened.

All of the MSM was clearly in on the cover up. They are not fooling anybody. The MSM is loosing viewers because they have lost our trust. I've heard some members of the MSM say "they missed it". Yeah right! Gimme a break. There is no use trying to get out of it. They were caught and they no it. Now as time goes on we know people will forget about this and none on the media will mention it again. FOX news, Newsmax and the like, will keep on talking about this for as long as they can. The Dems and the MSM will just hope for some news worthy event to happen so they have something else to talk about.

The independent media has been denouncing this for years , the dems were in deep denials , not us .

What "failure?" Biden was 100% successful. He promised open borders. Check. He promised more spending on Climate Change. Check. He promised more government spending. Check. He promised more wokeness. Check. He promised more taxes. Check. He promised to persecute his political enemies. Check. The Dems got everything they asked for. 100% success. Unfortunately, these policies were morally and economically a bone head idea. Checkmate. MAGA wins.

Joe Biden has always been a lousy politician and a terrible liar. However, he was really good at BS especially with the most gullible. His awful presidency was no surprise, especially to Obama who encouraged him not to run.

go talk to Lindi Li (DNC insider Harris Fundraiser) exposed this months ago and is writing a book don't give Tapper oxygen, instead watch Meghan Kelly interview and slice and dice Tapper and his complicity on the cover up just like the rest of the legacy "news" shows. Protecting biden didn't get Trump elected 51% of the voters voted for the policy Trump ran on.. Harris had zero policy

Klein knew of Biden's cognitive impairment all along and deliberately chose to pretend he did not notice it. And now he wants our respect?!?

Two observations: (1) there is a profound lack of virtue in our society—especially courage. Courage to stand up for the truth, whether it’s the health of the president, the stupidity of woke ideas, or silly ideas from Trump. People used to get fed to lions for what they believed was true. Now they won’t even risk a job. (2) The media is lost. Don’t try to divert attention by pointing to the failings of congressman or insiders, which are legion. The press exists to find the truth. They have utterly failed. They exchanged “truth to power” for “access and cheerleading.”

Ezra Klein... I can read his psyche. His opening statement...Ezra thinks he's a screen writer.

Let’s elect people who are young enough to live with the consequences of their actions after leaving office.

Title of the book should be: "How I failed professionally to be a good reporter"

Probably he is just playing all of you, by not answering the questions in the investigations

We finally beat medicare!

@grok please summarize this podcast /s

Declaring Easter as Trans visibility day, was most likely not a decision of Joe Biden, a Catholic, but the real President who made decisions.

Hey dipwad where was this info earlier? You found yourself confused till now? Brain freeze?

Now do your job Tapper and cover Trump the way he should be. YOU are doing a disservice to the country and slamming someone else to sell books. Disgusting.

Biden sick is a better president than trump any day.

Why are you giving a guy who actively hid Bidens condition a platform to repeat his excuses. He should be driven from the job of reporting anything to the American people

Using pretty language to cover up the fact that Joe was not fit to run.

Yet. Even after the debate Kamala Harris and Jake tapper were defending him

It would be so refreshing to see you guys pay this much attention to the fact that Joe and Hunter took MILLIONS in bribes from the CCP, laundered the money through over 20 secret LLC's, lied about all of it, and in turn compromised American policy to favor the Chinese as a result. That, along with the devastating deaths at Abby Gate, open borders, the destruction of our economy, and two horrible wars are what Biden and his handlers should be held accountable for!!

This needs to be investigated. This is a coverup at the highest level. Malicious intent was in it and cost lives.

How can you still believe that infrastructure and the IRA were good laws. They caused inflation

It’s a joke that Ezra Klein is even talking about this. He’s the one that was part of the groupthink.

Biden did NOT beat Trump! Stuffed ballots, Dominion machines flipping votes, the Laptop from Hell censored, the 51 "intelligence" reps lied, counting was mysteriously halted in the middle of the night only to flip just enough votes for Joe by morning...81 million votes for Crooked Joe? C'mon!!!!
