23.12.2021 | 15:50President Biden told ABC News in an interview that aired Wednesday he’ll seek re-election in 2024 if he remains in good health, and if his predecessor runs “that’ll increase the prospect” of him running.
There’s been speculation that Biden, 79, may only serve one four-year term, due to age or other reasons.
“I’m a great respecter of fate,” Biden added. “Fate has intervened in my life many, many times. If I’m in the health I’m in now, if I’m in good health … I would run again,” Biden said.
The “World News Tonight” anchor put to him the prospect of a “rematch” with former President Trump, 75 who’s hinted on several occasions about running for office again in 2024.
“You’re trying to tempt me now,” Biden laughed. “Sure. Why would I not run against Donald Trump for the nominee?”
