In a startling revelation during the final weeks of his presidency, President Joe Biden reportedly expressed regret over his decision to withdraw from the 2024 presidential race, believing he could have secured victory against Donald Trump despite earlier indicators suggesting otherwise.

According to an extensive report by The Guardian, Biden’s reflections paint a picture of a leader grappling with the consequences of stepping aside. Sources close to the president revealed his private convictions that the election outcome might have been different had he remained in the race, despite his earlier withdrawal following party pressure and a challenging debate performance against Trump in June.

Vice President Kamala Harris’s subsequent nomination as the Democratic candidate initially generated significant enthusiasm within the party. However, the campaign concluded with a decisive defeat against Trump, both in the electoral college and popular vote. While Biden has reportedly refrained from directly criticizing Harris, sources indicate he believes the results might have differed under his leadership.

Party dynamics and internal pressure

The decision to step down was heavily influenced by Democratic Party concerns about Biden’s electability. Critics within the party pointed to his 2020 campaign promise of being a “transitional” leader. As Connecticut Senator Richard Blumenthal told The Guardian: “Biden ran on the promise to be a one-term president, a bridge to a new generation.”

The Garland factor

Beyond electoral politics, the report highlights Biden’s apparent misgivings about appointing Merrick Garland as Attorney General. Garland’s cautious approach to prosecuting Trump over the January 6 Capitol attack has reportedly become a source of frustration for the president. Sources indicate that Biden was initially advised to choose former Alabama Senator Doug Jones, viewed as more politically adept, but ultimately followed his chief of staff Ron Klain’s recommendation for Garland.

Under Garland’s leadership, the Justice Department’s methodical pace in pursuing Trump-related investigations, combined with an aggressive probe into Hunter Biden’s affairs, created additional political challenges for the administration. The appointment of Special Counsel Jack Smith further delayed critical investigations, ultimately leaving key cases unresolved following Trump’s electoral victory.
