President Joe Biden reportedly regrets ending his re-election campaign and believes he could have defeated President Donald Trump in the recent election, according to White House sources cited by The Guardian and The Washington Post. In private conversations, Biden has expressed disappointment with his decision to withdraw, which was influenced by concerns over his age, low approval ratings, and a poor debate performance on June 27. Some of his aides share his belief that he could have won the election had he stayed in the race.
