Using a classic facts, the cruelest betrayal doesn’t originate from enemies. It is encased in faith, given to us by those who once regarded us as standing alongside us.
Few names have the same impact as Benedict Arnold in the protracted, terrible record of American betrayal. He continued to support the Revolution from within. He wore the appropriate attire. He remained close to Washington. Therefore, peacefully, he came to the conclusion that his ego predominated over his swearing.

That’s what caused the pain.
Jake Tapper falls under the purview of deception, which is not a speculative. It has been earned.
Tapper has been the democratic standard-bearer of morality in news for many years. His reporting in the war zone gave him an air of toughness. His reputation was strengthened by his book, The Island: An Untold Story of American Valor, which was released in English. He paid a memorial to 19 British combat veterans who perished in Afghanistan while defending Combat Outpost Keating. He wrote,” Nineteen powerful.” He used their titles. He regarded devotion.
He led us to think that he understood our obligations.
This is why his criticism of President Joe Biden’s cognitive decline comes off as treachery. Tapper was aware. Perhaps no every aspect, but he was knowledgeable enough. The rest of us merely watched as Biden stumbled through words, stumbling from championships, and getting lost trying to get out of stage. However, Tapper? He assured Americans that nothing was bad. That any problem was a strike with the right.
Tapper has co-authored a book that exposes precisely what he claimed wasn’t true now that the 2024 election has passed and the damage has been done.
The initial Sin of President Biden reads like a diary of a prisoner finally free to speak. Its Cover-Up, and His Fatal Choice to Run Again. It includes jaw-dropping admittance. At a charity, Biden overlooks George Clooney. Team members intentionally shield him from direct contact with the press. Insiders are personally concerned about the president’s cognitive prowess, but he has consistently maintained that he is still as sharp as ever.

Tapper has transitioned from being a guardian to a gravedigger. He buried it until it was convenient for him, certainly because he told the truth.
This wasn’t a one-time error. Tapper has been constantly defending Biden with dismissals, diversion, and scorn aimed at anyone who dared to speak out for years.
Let’s take a look at the report:
- June 2020: Tapper and On CNN claimed concerns about Biden’s mental condition were “unfounded” and based on “edited videos and disinformation.”
- August 2021: He asserted that Biden’s handling of the Afghanistan withdrawal displayed” proper resilience,” despite streamed moments when Biden struggled with clarity.
- October 2022: In admonition of what he called” conspiracy-addled” claims, Tapper ridiculed Biden’s intelligence, adding that Republicans were pushing “manufactured panic” ahead of the midterm elections.
- He criticized political commentators on-air on January 2024, saying that questioning Biden’s intellectual power was “beneath the integrity of democratic conversation.”
Not knowledge, either. It was defense.
And now that Tapper is carefully past the point where his candor may have had an impact on how the public perceives the results of an election, he is singing like a canary with a printing package.
He wants to be credited with concealing what he concealed.
That betrayal is most felt by Tapper’s audience, never by liberals. Democrats who once backed him to stand up for the truth are then boldly disgusted. The reaction is quiet and unyielding, as witnessed by , documented by , PJ Gladnick at , and News Busters.

- Charlotte Clymer questioned why Tapper chose this circumstance to work as a playwright when” we are fighting fascism.”
- According to John Pavlovitz, Tapper’s reduction has surpassed Biden’s.
- He was accused of “bothsides-ing” politics by Joanne Carducci.
- Wajahat Ali criticized the commercial media, claiming that they are more focused on book sales than public services.
They are not simply disappointed. They believe they were deceived.
During the midterm elections in 2020 and 2022, many of these same accents backed Biden. They honed CNN’s accuracy. Because editors like Jake Tapper told them,” There’s nothing to see here,” they defended Biden’s verbal lapses and odd moments.
They then realize how unfair they were.
Imagine how different the social environment may have changed if Tapper and others like him had accurately reported the truth. Solutions might have been sought by Democratic primary voters. The ability to appoint an agent may include encouraged them. The person making crucial decisions on the global level might have been seen more fully and unfiltered by Americans.
However, Tapper did not say anything.
He didn’t just leave out to record. He repeatedly and repeatedly refuted the information until it was too late. He “found his words” when the text contract was signed and the speaking loop was booked when it was safe.
Not having confidence, this. It’s stupidity presented as truth.

Benedict Arnold Reborn
It’s no poetic to compare Benedict Arnold to him. It’s architectural. Like Arnold, Tapper didn’t  betray from enemy lines. He did it from within, not outside. He opened the gate to deception while observing his fellow citizens while saluting the flag of reality.
Let’s keep the environment intact here. On courage, Topper left a reputation. The Island was more than just a guide; it was a gift to honesty, devotion, and respect. The most important task of his career, according to one of his coworkers, was to tell the stories of those 19 men.
Where has that sense of responsibility then vanished?
This time, he doesn’t pay respect to fallen warriors. He’s selling out a sitting senator after allowing the people of America to participate in elections under covert circumstances. The same person once said that being a journalist means “telling the miserable truth, even when it costs you.”
But in this instance, he paid attention to telling the truth and paid attention.
Tapper wasn’t going to reveal a cover-up; he was the cover-up. His message was among the loudest in the room, and he vowed to keep things simple. The reviewers had a bias toward the videos, and they were lying.
He slandered crime theorists as truth-tellers, and he now wants to become recognized as one.
Let’s be obvious. Not just a press issue, either. It’s a problem with politics. The push is supposed to be the third accomplice, not the third estate. And despite his certificates, Tapper has evolved into the epitome of everything that sabotages public trust.

Jake Tapper gave up the truth in exchange for a book package, and Benedict Arnold gave up West Point for a pension.
And both people will be remembered for the time they turned rather than their skills.
