President Joe Biden emphasized the importance of defeating former President Donald Trump in the upcoming November election during an interview with CBS chief election and campaign correspondent Robert Costa. Biden, 81, described himself as a “transition president” and expressed a sense of obligation to the country to defeat Trump. His comments come after dropping out of the presidential race last month following concerns about his debate performance.
The Democratic party quickly rallied around Vice President Kamala Harris as the nominee, who has raised over $300 million since launching her campaign and is leading in three key swing states against Trump, according to a recent poll. Biden also expressed doubts about a peaceful transfer of power if Trump were to lose the election, believing that Trump’s statements should be taken seriously.
Biden’s focus on defeating Trump reflects a key priority for him in the upcoming election, underscoring the importance of mobilizing efforts to prevent Trump from returning to office. As the political landscape continues to evolve, Biden’s remarks highlight the urgency of action to ensure a different outcome in November.
