Biden Says He and Harris Could Have Beaten Trump, Citing Age Concerns in Decision to Withdraw
Jan 10, 2025, 11:28 PM
President Joe Biden, in a new interview with USA Today, expressed his belief that he could have defeated Donald Trump in the recent presidential election if he had remained in the race instead of stepping aside for Vice President Kamala Harris. Acknowledging concerns about his age and stamina, the 82-year-old president admitted uncertainty about serving another full term, saying, "So far, so good, but who knows what I'm going to be when I'm 86 years old?" He emphasized the importance of party unity in his decision to withdraw, stating, "I thought it was more important to unify the party." Biden voiced confidence in Harris's ability to lead, asserting that she "could have beaten Trump and would have beaten Trump."
