The president reportedly regrets dropping his reelection bid after a disastrous debate performance.
President Joe Biden reportedly believes he would’ve defeated Donald Trump if he didn’t drop out of the race after a disastrous debate performance over the summer.
Trump, naturally, disagrees.
“Well, he was way behind, he would’ve really, I assume, not had a chance,” the president-elect told reporters at a Mar-a-Lago New Year’s Eve party when asked about the report.
“I wish him well,” Trump added. “He had a chance to do it in the debate, and that didn’t work out too well for him. That was, I guess, the reason that really led to his downfall.”
Biden’s approval ratings sagged through much of his presidency and he was behind Trump in a number of polls when the two met for what would turn out to be a fateful debate in June.
