Sadly, you know, I think for a variety of reasons he should not. I just, I don't think either Trump or Biden should be running.
He is a leader there's no question about that. But I think he's a bad leader. I think he's leaving his people into, he's leading the country, especially into a very bad place.
I think, basically, this is about power. I think he wants to cripple Joe Biden before he ever gets started.
This represents a very professional, thoughtful, first set of steps by Joe Biden.
