Biden 'misses Trump' & is expecting 2024 re-election run

At his first official press conference, Joe Biden was asked if he planned to run again in 2024 and if so why he had not yet set up a reelection campaign.

Asking the question, CBS News White House correspondent Nancy Cordes added that the president’s predecessor Donald Trump had set up his campaign at this stage in his time in office.

Mr Biden chuckled: “My predecessor would need to.”

He continued: “My predecessor… Oh God, I miss him.”

The president confirmed that yes, his plan is to run for reelection in 2024, adding “that is my expectation”.

Joe Biden- already the oldest president to hold office - says it is his “expectation” that he'll run again in 2024.

Biden, who is 78, was asked about his political future during a press conference on March 25, 2021.

President Joe Biden told reporters that he intends to run for a second term in the White House.

“My plan is to run for reelection. That’s my expectation,” he said.

He would add: “I’m a great respecter of fate. I’ve never been able to plan four-and-a-half, three-and-a-half years ahead for certain."

Biden was asked whether he thought he could face a rematch against Donald Trump.

The president appeared to respond with a grimace.

“Oh, I don’t even think about it,” Biden said.

“I have no idea.”

There had been much speculation that Biden would not seek a second term.

Biden added that he “would fully expect” that Vice President Kamala Harris would remain on the ticket.

“She’s a great partner,” he said.

He can’t plan ahead for 4 years but he is leading the country?

[petegiant]

Anyone notice the difference in tone of the reporter's questions in comparison to Trump's press conferences?

[toveycanem]

Ear piece at work. You should have shown the whole conference, but of course you won’t. He was talking gibberish a lot of the time. He belongs in a care home: and prison.

[gungaloscrungalo]

My guy, you hardly made it through your first press conference, never mind a whole term.

[lemdixon]

He can't plan 4 years ahead, he can't plan 2 minutes ahead before he forgets what he was saying or doing.

[lostinpa-dadenduro]

He believes in fate. Can’t plan ahead four years. That’s reassuring to the rest of the world. Keep your emergency food supplies stocked folks. Amazing.

Even the left miss trump .. politics is boring without him yes?

[marcusphoenix]

He be lucky make another 4 years on earth 😅😂😂😂

[traineddumbass]

Whenever I get worried about the state the UK is in, I just take a look at the US and remind myself we're not doing THAT bad

[commanderspock]

Biden misses trump? He has probably forgot who he is...

[BaileyGreenwood]

I don't think he'll even make it to 2024

[Anthonyuk]

A man who knows he will be gone within a year. Either dead or ousted by the demon he put as a running mate.

[angelanicholson]

The cost of medicating and preparing this geezer for efforts like this car crash will very soon bankrupt the country. His side-kick is even worse at answering questions.

[lostinpa-dadenduro]

A full diaper and an empty mind make for a train wreck press conference.

[redprince]

I don't think he will be around mutch longer! He's on the way out.

[gethighonlife]

@ 0:13 "Oh, God, I miss him." That's about the most relevant thing this fool said during this press conference. We miss him too!

[carterholmes]

Not that I have a horse in this race... however, when he said he cant plan 3 years in advance, I was like.... what... 😂. You're the president dude, your job is to plan for the future 😂😂😂

[dougc]

"I don't know where you come from MAN" ?? Sounds like a woman asking the questions?? Is he some washed out hippy. Or the president.

[TheWorldisSoDivided]

He talks in circles. Circle back to the question Joe.

[graemesim]

I feel sorry for the USA spend now, tax to death later on, who’s he trying to kid😢
