Laura Trump cast doubt on former President Joe Biden's mental state during a 2020 campaign event, suggesting that aging Democrats struggled to speak coherently.

While that brought an angry response from CNN anchor Jake Tapper, he has since confessed that Mrs. Trump was right.  

Tapper says he has already apologized to Lara Trump

According to Breitbart, Tapper made the admission Tuesday when speaking to podcast host Megyn Kelly about his new book titled "Original Sin."

"I’ve already apologized to her. I called her months ago," said Tapper, whose book details efforts aimed at covering up the former president's health struggles.

The television reporter went on to acknowledge that Mrs. Trump's "comments have aged well" whereas his own remarks "have aged poorly."

Former president sounds confused in newly released audio recording

Tapper's statements came just days after Axios publicized an audio recording of an interview that Special Counsel Robert Hur conducted with the then president in October of 2023.

Hur can at one point be heard asking Biden about where he placed a collection of classified documents, getting a confused answer in response.

"So, during this time when you were living at Chain Bridge Road and there were documents relating to the Penn Biden Center or the Biden Institute, or the Cancer Moonshot, or your book, where did you keep papers that related to those things that you were actively working?" Hur inquired.

"Well…. I, I, I, I, I, I don’t know. This is what — 2017, 2018, that area?" Biden shakily replied before Hur confirmed that this was indeed the relevant time frame.

Biden was uncertain about the year of his son's death and when he left the Senate

"Remember, in this time frame, my son is either been deployed or is dying," Biden said regarding Beau Biden, who actually succumbed to brain cancer in 2015.

"And, so, it was, and by the way, there are still a lot of people at the time when I got out of the Senate that were encouraging me to run in this period, except the president," the then president insisted despite his time in the Senate having concluded in January of 2009.

"I’m not — it’s not a mean thing to say, he just thought that she had a better shot of winning the presidency than I did," Biden continued.

The "she" in question appears to have been  former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who lost her presidential race against Donald Trump in 2016.
