After being asked by ABC News on Thursday whether he plans to run for re-election, Biden said, “Yes, but look, I’m a great respecter of fate. 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, then in fact I would run again.”
Asked if he would still run if that meant “a rematch against Donald Trump” – who Biden defeated in 2020 – the president responded, “You’re trying to tempt me now.”
Biden, who is the oldest serving president at 79, has previously committed to running for re-election. Biden will be 82 during the next election in 2024.
“The answer is yes, my plan is to run for re-election… That is my expectation,” he told reporters in March.
However, a majority of Democrats believe the party would have a better chance in 2024 if Biden did not run for re-election, with Vice President Kamala Harris and former First Lady Michelle Obama at the top of the list in polls as alternative candidates.
