Obama expressed serious concern about Biden’s ability to participate in the election campaign.
Former US President Barack Obama has told his allies that, in his opinion, the current head of the White House, Joe Biden, should reconsider his decision to participate in the elections this year. This is reported by Fox News.
A source familiar with Obama’s position said he “continues to see his primary role as serving as an adviser to President Biden, as they have done for each other over the years.”
Obama considers Biden to be an outstanding president with significant achievements in office. At the same time, the former US president expressed serious concern about Biden’s ability to participate in the election campaign.
Barack Obama emphasized that the current US president can make the decision to withdraw from the race, rejecting the idea that only he can influence his former vice president.
We will remind, against the background of constant pressure from friends and leaders of the Democratic Party, US President Joe Biden will probably withdraw from the presidential race this weekend. Axios writes about this with reference to its own sources.
Earlier, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi privately told US President Joe Biden that, according to polls, he would not be able to defeat Republican candidate Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election.
By the way, the National Committee of the Democratic Party of the USA decided to postpone the official nomination of President Joseph Biden as a candidate for the post of the head of state. Virtual voting for presidential candidates will take place in the first week of August.
