Biden regrets withdrawing from presidential election – WP

Joe Biden regrets dropping out of this year’s presidential race and believes he could beat Donald Trump in last month’s election – despite negative polls, White House sources said. The Washington Post writes about it on Saturday, December 28.

The US president also said he made a mistake in selecting Merrick Garland as attorney general because Garland, a former US appeals court judge, was slow to prosecute Donald Trump for his role in the January 6, 2021 insurrection while heads the Justice Department, but has been actively investigating the case of Biden’s son Hunter.

Biden and some of his aides still believe he should have stayed in the race, despite a poor debate performance and poor polling results that prompted Democrats to force him out of the race and also said of these aides to the people in recent days he can beat Trump.

We remind you that the presidential election in the United States took place on Tuesday, November 5th. The main candidates for the presidency are Kamala Harris, representing the Democratic Party, and Donald Trump, the candidate from the Republican Party.

Note that Harris was nominated after Biden announced on the social network X his decision not to run for a second presidential term. He then attached a letter to his publication in which he wrote that in the interest of his party and the country, “it is better for him to step aside and concentrate solely on fulfilling his duties as president for the remainder of his term his term.”

US Vice President Kamala Harris has told advisers and allies to keep her options open – for a possible 2028 presidential campaign or even a run for governor in her home state of California in two years .
