Former President Joe Biden, appearing on ABC's 'The View,' took responsibility for President Donald Trump's re-election, stating, 'I was in charge and he won.' Biden's comments came during his first American TV appearance since leaving the White House in January. Biden also addressed the defeat of his former Vice President Kamala Harris by Trump in the 2024 election. He attributed Harris's loss to sexism and racism, expressing that he was not surprised by the outcome due to the 'sexist route' taken during the campaign. Biden emphasized Harris's qualifications, stating she was 'qualified to be president of the United States of America.' Despite his endorsement of Harris after exiting the race in July 2024, Biden maintained that he could have defeated Trump, citing that Trump received 'seven million fewer votes' than in his previous election. Biden also mentioned a commission from Oklahoma aimed at dealing with the border, which was undermined by Trump's phone calls to Republicans. Jill Biden expressed her support for her husband's presidency during the interview.

Sleepy blames Kamala’s loss on, what else? Sexism from voters. With Dems, it’s never the candidate’s fault or the racialism, it’s always the fault of the “unwashed masses”… https://t.co/W1OrrRWuGa
