According to The Hill, Joe Biden disclosed to his former boss Barack Obama that he intends to run for reelection in 2024.
Oh, he's not joking?
President Biden has told former President Obama that he is planning to run for reelection in 2024, two sources tell The Hill.
The admission to Obama is the latest indication that Biden is likely to run for a second term, something the president has spoken about publicly.
During a press conference in Brussels last month, he told reporters he'd be "very fortunate" to run against his rival in the 2020 election, former President Trump.
"[Biden] wants to run and he's clearly letting everyone know," said one of the two sources familiar with the conversations between Obama and Biden.
The ancient Joe Biden, the most unpopular president in history, seriously thinks that he's in a position to run for reelection?
The guy takes orders from the Easter Bunny for goodness' sake.
The source also said that Biden, despite his faltering approval ratings, remains the most likely Democratic candidate to defeat Trump. This was a key part of Biden's salesmanship to voters as he sought support for his 2020 bid — and a big reason primary voters rallied to him in South Carolina and Super Tuesday states where he sealed his status as the Democratic front-runner.
"I believe he thinks he's the only one who can beat Trump. I don't think he thinks there's anyone in the Democratic party who can beat Trump and that's the biggest factor," the source familiar with the Obama-Biden talks said.
Trump and Biden round 2?
I know Trump would love to see it.
