Former CNN political analyst Chris Cillizza expressed remorse Thursday for not investigating concerns about President Joe Biden’s mental and physical health sooner.
Corporate media spent years downplaying voters’ and Republicans’ concerns about Biden’s mental acuity before his June debate against then-former President Donald Trump. Cillizza, on his YouTube channel, acknowledged he was wrong to overlook those concerns during his tenure at CNN. “As a reporter, I have a confession to make: I should have pushed harder earlier for more information about Joe Biden’s mental and physical well-being and any signs of decline. So let me explain.

Bias towards believing Dems and disbelieving Republicans is a serious disability. Almost all the Enemedia have this same problem.

The author is a toss pot making excuses. He wanted Joe to be ok and looked the other way like a good boy.

Chris, you are not important enough to issue an apology. No one watches or listens to you, a sound in the forest.

Didn’t this fool believe his own eyes? Biden‘s cognitive decline was obvious to anybody with a pulse unless you just didn’t want to know!

He and his fellow travelers were not ignoring, playing down, procrastinating, etc.
They were actively involved in the lies and coverups. He and the rest of them did there utmost to propagate lies and coverup facts. Gaslighting on a major scale. There is no corner hot enough for the lot of them. Hey Chris, to quote an old famous rock group, "Your time is gonna come!"

Trump needs to listen to these thoughtful people. Obviously there were still many problems with this newer version.
Government shut down during the Christmas vacation is really not a shutdown
I am disappointed that Trump has not understood the pork and items that are still in the bill.

The Bull Crap is piled so high at CNN, the talking heads can't be seen. Cillizza is as dumb as AOC.

It would seem Cillizza here, having lost the power to fool gullible viewers now resorts to fooling himself.
He didn't pursue the story bc he is owned by the dem machine.
But if he wants to make up for it he could always investigate who was Bidens puppet master while in office and expose Barry Hussein Obama.

Is Cillizza angry because he was deceived by the WH and most dems? These are his "buddies", his reliable sources, his go-to-guys, and they all LIED to him. What does that tell him about his associations and how gullible he is.
Cillizza's excuse is like this: if Biden was SAID to be on fire the only way Cillizza would believe it was if Biden was standing on a street corner, engulfed in flames, the fire department was on the scene trying to hose him down, and Cillizza was an eye witness to it all. Like Biden's collapse at the debate when EVERYONE witnessed it. Golly Chris, your standard seems to be; When everyone else has seen the obvious, I guess I will believe it too. That makes you pretty useless as a "reporter". In fact, it makes you a "Fake News" propaganda stooge that Trump has said you all are.

"Let me explain..." he said. No, let ME explain: you are a lickspittle toady of the democrat party who will say anything to stay in the good graces of your political masters. You are a catamite of the Washington, DC power structure whose financial welfare is your only guiding principle. Now that your former masters have been sent packing, you think to "expain" youself to justify your lack of intellectual and moral rigor in an effort to continue to stay in your position? Never! Get out and never show your craven, cowardly face in public again. Accept your humiliation like a man, even though that may be an impossible task for one so bereft of manly virtue.

Guess what. He is STILL the President. Now that the truth has been revealed they STILL aren't demanding that this Administration be held responsible for basically lying to the public by omission? Where is their outrage? Crickets.

Oh please. Biden’s mental decline was recognized globally. The media had a lot closer contact and more information than we did and we could see it from our living rooms. This was media denial and butt covering for a Democrat. These people are repulsive.

No Chris, you followed orders. Diaper Joe was at best, at the height of mental capabilities, no better than a 3rd grade bully. It didn't take long for him to regress to a 2 year old. And that was before he was VP. The majority of the nation knew Diaper Joe wasn't well. The vast majority of Americans have had demented relatives and Diaper Joe's comments and physical capabilities were hauntingly familiar.
No Chris, sorry you just followed orders. Sorry that the leftist propaganda gig market has collapse and getting a job is a real beach now. Guess nobody is willing to pay big bucks for untrustworthy propagandist now.

Now he tells us. After the election, of course, and hoping Kamala would win and Biden blamed for every thing. She was Vice President and went completely along with the scam. She is just as culpable, along with "Doctor" Jill and the whole administration.
