Biden Believes He Could Have Won 2024 Election Against Trump Despite Uncertainty About Stamina
Jan 8, 2025, 01:21 PM
In an exclusive interview with USA TODAY, President Joe Biden expressed confidence that he could have won the 2024 presidential election against Donald Trump if he had remained in the race. Biden, who reluctantly ended his reelection bid in late July and endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris, cited polling data to support his belief in a potential victory. However, he admitted uncertainty about his ability to serve another four years in office due to his age, stating, 'I don't know,' and 'Who the hell knows?' when asked about his stamina for a second term at 86 years old. Biden, who will be 82 at the end of his term, reflected on his decision to step aside, influenced by concerns about his age and performance in a televised debate with Trump in June, which led to calls from Democratic leaders for him to withdraw.
