Biden: ‘I could have beaten Trump, but I don’t know if I would have had the strength to govern’
The outgoing president reflects on his decision not to run again, admitting doubts about his ability to govern until he is 86. No decision yet on preemptive graces for Hunter Biden, Fauci and Cheney
Joe Biden said he was convinced he could beat Donald Trump if he decided to run for the White House again. In an interview with USA Today, the 82-year-old president responded to the question of whether he believes he would have won against Trump after his defeat by Kamala Harris in November: ‘It’s presumptuous to say that, but I think so,’ he said.
However, Biden acknowledged that while he has confidence in his electoral abilities, he does not know if he would be able to hold up another four years at the helm of the country. ‘Who the hell knows?’ he frankly admitted, adding, ’So far so good, but who knows how I’ll be when I’m 86?’ Biden recalled that already during the 2020 campaign he believed he was the best candidate to defeat Trump, but did not imagine he would have to govern until such an advanced age. ‘That’s why I talked about passing the baton,’ he explained.
The interview also touched on sensitive topics, such as the possibility of granting preemptive graces to public figures, including his son Hunter, Liz Cheney and Anthony Fauci. Biden has not yet made a final decision on this issue, but revealed that he urged Trump during their meeting on 13 November not to take punitive action, as such actions would be ‘contrary to his own interests’.
Biden’s reflection on his age and ability to lead the country reflects the ongoing debate in the US about the age of political leaders and the challenges it brings, while the possibility of preemptive graces adds further tension to the presidential transition.
