BIDEN REEMERGES FOR SOCIAL SECURITY-FOCUSED SPEECH AS TRUMP POPULARITY DIPS

Biden, 82, forfeited the Democratic nomination in July after a concerted pressure campaign from Democratic leaders over his age and health. Former Vice President Kamala Harris took his spot and was defeated by President Donald Trump despite Biden’s endorsement.

Democratic anger was widely directed at Biden, with many in the party blaming their sweeping election losses on his late exit from the race. The anger may have contributed to his decision to remain outside the limelight in his retirement despite Trump’s public criticisms of him.
