Joe Biden Bids Farewell
Briefly

I believe my record as president, my leadership in the world, my vision for America's future, all merited a second term. But nothing, nothing can come in the way of saving our democracy. That includes personal ambition. So I've decided the best way forward is to pass the torch to a new generation. It's the best way to unite our nation. I know there was a time and a place for long years of experience in public life. There's also a time and a place for new voices, fresh voices, yes, younger voices. And that time and place is now.
I would like to thank our great vice president, Kamala Harris. She is experienced, she is tough, she is capable. She's been an incredible partner to me and a leader for our country.
Maybe most significantly, he promised to work for "Supreme Court reform," which, when he got elected, he shunned. At the time, he turned the clamor for court expansion and other ideas over to a commission that recommended basically nothing. There's nothing he can do now, given the composition of the House and Senate.
