Hunter Biden pressed his father, then President Joe Biden, to rest while traveling to Ireland in April 2023.
So Initial Sin: The decline of President Biden, his concealment and his catastrophic choice to run againS
The Biden room was at one point during the trip, it became empty, with less than a dozen people. Two of them were the lifting of Illinois Mike Quigley and then New York reporter Brian Higgins. Hunter Biden pushed his father to take a step back.
“You promised you won’t do it,” he said, according to the authors. “You have promised you will nap. You know you can’t handle it all.”
Biden ignored his son’s concerns and walked to the bar at the back of the room where his wife handed him a soft drink. He looked exhausted.
At that moment, Quigley realized why the moment was feeling familiar. He reminded him of his father for the last few years before his death from Parkinson at the age of 92.

Biden and some Democrats, along with him, reject that his deterioration happened.
Earlier this month Biden appeared onView., When the co-host Alice Farah Griffin asked Biden about the “democratic sources”, which said that “in the last year there is a dramatic decline in your cognitive abilities. What is your answer to these claims and these sources are wrong?”
“They are wrong. They have nothing to support it,” he replied.
Although it has not yet been announced, Quiglie questioned during the trip to Ireland how Biden can run for re -election.
While Biden received a impetus from the crowds in Ireland, when they did not attend, he fell apart, the authors write.
Quigley believed at that moment that Biden had to rest for the rest of the day and night. He was physically fragile and had lost the greater part of his energy. The authors describe his speech behind the scenes as breathless, soft and weak. Quigley was often reminiscent of his father during the trip.

The Illinois Congressman talks to Higgins that Biden seems to have symptoms similar to those of Parkinson’s. However, Higgins looks at the president through a different lens, losing his own father of Alzheimer’s, and believed he saw something similar in the stirring of Biden.
“The diagnosis is nothing more than recognizing models,” Higgins told Tapper and Thompson. “When people see these things, it creates a view that something happens neurologically.”
He added that Biden’s cognitive decline “is obvious to most people who watch it.”
Quigley wondered why the White House doctor did not try to diagnose the president. However, he thought that Biden’s employees might not want to know.
The president’s officers were admired in his Union’s state in 2024. Biden was surrounded by Democrats on the House of the House after speech. Quigley was not so close to Biden after a trip to Ireland in the previous year.
When he puts his hand on Biden’s back, he felt his ribs and spine. His voice is soft and breathable, Biden’s eyes threw themselves from the side. Once again, Quigley was reminded of his late father.
A few months later, it did not turn out that the catastrophic presentation of the debate did not come as a huge shock for Quigley, the book reports.
“We have to be honest with ourselves that it was not just a terrible night,” Quiglie told Cassie Hunt on CNN on July 2. A few days later, he became one of the first Democrats to call the president to withdraw from the ticket.
