The 81-year-old abandoned his campaign in July after a disastrous debate performance and a series of gaffes led to heavy speculation about his fitness to serve.
US President Joe Biden has revealed he dropped out of the race for the White House because Democrats felt his candidacy was 'going to hurt' their chances of being re-elected. The 81-year-old abandoned his campaign in July after months of speculation about his age and his fitness to serve another four years. Concerns increased among Democrats after a disastrous debate performance against Donald Trump in June and a series of high-profile gaffes.
He continued: 'Although It's a great honour being president, I think I have an obligation to the country to do the most important thing you can do and that is - we must, we must, we must defeat Trump.' In the interview with CBS' chief election and campaign correspondent Robert Costa, Mr Biden also said he was 'not confident at all' that there would be a peaceful transfer of power if Mr Trump loses the election.
