Trump says he doesn’t ‘see how it’s possible’ Biden stays in ’24 race
Trump claims there’s ‘something wrong’ with Biden: Tells Tucker Carlson ‘I don’t see how it’s possible’ president, 80, can make it to 2024 after discussing ‘eggs’ with Al Roker
- Former President Donald Trump doubted that President Joe Biden would make it to the 2024 presidential race
- Trump taped a sit-down with Fox News Channel’s Tucker Carlson on Monday
- “Look, I look at him just like you do. And I think it’s almost inappropriate to say it — I don’t see how it’s possible — but something is wrong,” Trump said.
Former President Donald Trump claimed that “something is wrong” with President Joe Biden and expressed doubt that the 80-year-old would make it to the 2024 presidential race.
Trump sat down Monday for an interview with Tucker Carlson, which will air Tuesday night, and was asked by the Fox News Channel host if he believed Biden would stay in the race.
“Look, I look at him just like you do. And I think it’s almost inappropriate to say it – I don’t see how it’s possible – but something is wrong,” Trump, 76, replied.
The former president pointed to an interview Biden gave Monday during today’s Easter Egg Roll at the White House with Al Roker.
“I saw his answer today. On television. About whether or not he would run. To a really nice guy named Al Roker. You can’t get a softer question. That was a long answer, talking about the eggs and this and that,” Trump said. “Listen, I don’t think he can.”

Roker spoke with Biden and first lady Jill Biden on the Truman balcony and asked the president if he planned to participate in Easter Egg Rolls after 2024.
“I intend — at least three or four more Easter Egg Rolls,” Biden replied. “Maybe five,” he continued, his childhood stutters a little obvious. “Maybe six, who cares?”
Roker asked if that meant Biden would run for re-election.
“I’ll be the man who rolls the egg or the man who pushes them out,” Biden replied.
He then clarified.
“I plan to participate, Al,” he said, “but we can’t announce it yet.”
Trump announced his intention to retake the White House in mid-November, right after the midterm elections, extending the already long presidential campaign timeline.
However, Biden has yet to officially announce a re-election campaign.
An Axios report last week quoted some Biden sources as suggesting it could not come until this fall, while others believed he might announce it sometime this summer.
Meanwhile, Trump is trying to make quick work of the Republican primary field — which has officially attracted Nikki Haley, former Arkansas governor Asa Hutchinson, and Vivek Ramaswamy, but with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, former Vice President Mike Pence, Senator Tim Scott, and former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo are all flirting with a bid.
