Michael LaRosa, Jill Biden's ex-press secretary, revealed that President Joe Biden's team intended for him to run for re-election from the outset of his presidency in 2021. Despite publicly positioning himself as a transitional leader aimed at paving the way for younger Democrats, Biden privately indicated he would not seek a second term. However, with the political landscape and his legislative achievements in mind, he ultimately decided to run. LaRosa's insights highlight the administration's long-term ambitions, which challenge the narrative of Biden as a temporary leader.
LaRosa stated that from the very beginning of Biden's presidency in 2021, it was clear that the administration aimed for re-election, contrary to Biden's public image as a transitional leader.
When asked about his concerns regarding Biden's 2024 campaign, LaRosa noted he realized early on that the expectation was for Biden to seek a second term.
