Washington, D.C. – In a surprising turn of events, President Joe Biden has officially endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris for President. The announcement came during a speech to fellow Democrats, where Biden revealed his decision not to seek re-election and instead focus on his duties for the remainder of his term.
“My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term,” Biden stated. He reflected on his choice of running mate in the 2020 election, expressing his confidence in Harris. “My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made.”
Biden’s endorsement marks a significant moment for the Democratic Party as it gears up for the upcoming presidential election. “Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year,” Biden continued. “Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump. Let’s do this.”
The endorsement sets the stage for Harris, who has been a prominent figure in the Biden administration, to potentially become the Democratic nominee for the 2024 presidential election. The announcement is expected to galvanize the party as it prepares for a heated contest against former President Donald Trump.
