00:00The president can declassify anything that he wants. Has he looked to see if there are any
00:08records here that would contradict what we've been told about Joe Biden's decline?
00:14He has not directed anyone to my knowledge to look into that, but surely I can ask him if he
00:22intends to. I think the president has spoken on this pretty extensively, and I have spoken about
00:28it extensively from this podium as well, how it was truly one of the worst political scandals
00:33this country has ever seen, that the previous administration covered up the decline in the
00:37former president's mental and physical ability. And it's now all coming out, but the American people
00:44knew the truth, and that's one of the many reasons why President Trump won the election on November 5th.
00:49And President Trump says he basically thinks unelected Biden staffers concealed his decline so
00:55that they could use the levers of power for their own personal gain.
00:59Well, look, that's not just the president thinking that, Peter. There's a new book out. I don't know
01:04if any of you have heard about it. Again, a little bit too late because the American people knew the
01:08truth on this from the very beginning. And there were reporters in this room, including some from
01:12your network, Peter, I'll give you a little bit of credit here, who have said that clearly Joe Biden's
01:16staffers were engaging in this cover-up. So this is common sense. This isn't the president making it up.
01:21These are facts that are now finally being revealed.
