You know, clearly they were uncomfortable even then with the prospect of the president having an interview in real time with a reporter.

Well, here's the thing. As I say, I think that this is much more interesting and not nearly as simple as the notion of a cover up. In other words, I am convinced that Joe Biden's inner circle was convinced that Joe Biden was capable of governing and they believe that he could do it for another four years.

And we can't dismiss the fact that Biden, on the very last day, July 21st, that Sunday when his aides came to hammer out his abdication statement, Joe Biden was on the phone parsing the details of a complex multi-nation prisoner swap. He was on top of every detail.

People who visited Biden in the Oval Office to talk about the Middle East said he was on top of every nuance of Middle Eastern policy. This is not – this was not Woodrow Wilson. This was not somebody over in the corner who was incapacitated while – You know, all the president's men ran the government. Joe Biden, behind closed doors, was governing capably, whether you liked his policies or not.

So there's no question that he was a shadow of the campaigner that he once was. And that was true from 2020 all the way to the end. But you can't dismiss the fact, it's an inconvenient fact for people who say it was a cover-up, that Biden was capable.

What I'm saying is the inner circle, and I've spent a lot of time talking to his closest aides, and I'm talking about Mike Donilon and Steve Reschetti and Bruce Reed and others. And four months after that debate, I went to the White House and I interviewed Reschetti and Reed, and they were still trapped in this kind of – force field of denial.

They still believed that Biden would have been reelected, could have been reelected, would have governed capably for another four years until he was 86. Now, I find that to be misguided and delusional, but They believe it.

And Mike Donilon went to the Harvard Kennedy School months after the election and said he thought the party had lost its mind by walking away from the guy who got 81 million votes in 2020. So all I'm saying is that those guys weren't covering up somebody that they thought was incapable of governing. They believed he was still on his game.
