Daily Wire Emeritus and bestselling author Ben Shapiro swiped CNN commentator and former state Rep. Bakari Sellers (D-SC) during an appearance on HBO&#8217;s &#8220;Real Time with Bill Maher” on Friday. 
The back and forth started when Shapiro noted that Democrats are in the worst possible position after President Joe Biden&#8217;s news conference following a NATO summit on Thursday, since the president did just well enough to argue he shouldn&#8217;t be dumped by the party, while still being incoherent at times. The conservative quipped that Biden is &#8220;mostly dead, which is still slightly alive &#8212; which is exactly what you&#8217;re looking for if you&#8217;re a Republican.&#8221;
Astonishingly, Sellers, in response, went to bat for Biden and told Shapiro he has “no reason” to believe Biden wouldn’t finish out a second term. “Really?&#8221; Shapiro, with a smile on his face, said to Sellers. &#8220;No Reason? Zero Reason?”
Host Bill Maher even swooped in and told Sellers, &#8220;I&#8217;m surprised you&#8217;re carrying this kind of water [for Biden].&#8221;
The former state rep responded that Biden &#8220;is the nominee&#8221; and said the focus on Biden&#8217;s decline is a &#8220;failure of our foundation in media.&#8221; 
&#8220;The media covered it up for like two years,&#8221; Shapiro responded.

Shapiro also took on the Left&#8217;s latest narrative that no one knew about how bad the president&#8217;s mental decline was until his disastrous debate two weeks ago. He explained that folks on the Right have been talking about Biden&#8217;s deterioration for years, contrary to the Democrats and their allies in the media&#8217;s claims. 
&#8220;I want to know why it is that for two long years, anyone who pointed out that [Biden] was very unlikely to finish a second term was labeled as some sort of crazy kook,&#8221; Shapiro said. &#8220;Do you know how many leaks have come out in the last three weeks alone about the kind of insanity that has been going on at the White House?”
The conservative went on to detail recent leaks that seem to evidence a coverup of the issue by some in the White House.
&#8220;They haven&#8217;t had a <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/07/11/us-news/white-house-screened-cabinet-officials-questions-for-biden-during-rare-meetings-with-prez-report/#:~:text=Biden%20has%20not%20convened%20a,closed%2Ddoor%20get%2Dtogethers.">cabinet meeting</a> in nine months!&#8221; he said. &#8220;Why did it take until now for us to find that out? We know the foreign leaders in 2022 were going to meetings with him, and they were bewildered about what they were seeing. Why are we finding this out now?&#8221;
