Former President Joe Biden, in his first interview since leaving office on BBC Radio, addressed his decision to drop out of the 2024 presidential race and responded to allegations of cognitive decline. Biden stated that he did not regret staying in the race as long as he did, asserting that it 'wouldn't have made a difference' if he had exited earlier. He also denied claims of cognitive decline, describing them as baseless, following reports on his mental decline. During the interview on 'The View,' Biden and former First Lady Jill Biden discussed the impact of his decision to leave the race four months before Election Day, which allowed former Vice President Kamala Harris to challenge Donald Trump after a botched rollout. Biden expressed that stepping down was a 'difficult decision' but the 'right decision.' Jill Biden defended her husband against the allegations, emphasizing his hard work and dedication during his presidency. Biden criticized Trump's first 100 days in office, calling them the 'worst any president's ever had' and attributing responsibility for Trump's election to himself, saying, 'I was in charge, and he won. So, you know, I take responsibility.' He also suggested that sexism played a role in Harris's loss to Trump.
