Obama Reportedly Very Worried Biden Will Lose To Trump In The 2024 Presidential Election

JAKARTA - Former US President Barack Obama has a "big concern" Joe Biden could lose to Donald Trump in the US presidential election in November, according to a report by The New York Times (NYT).

NYT also reported Obama regularly calling the incumbent presidential aides to share advice,

Biden himself regularly makes contact with Obama, either to catch up in the presidential election or talk about family, said a report published on Tuesday (26/3).

Obama then routinely contacted White House Chief of Staff Jeffrey Zients and several other important staff at Biden's campaign to "strengthen strategies" and deliver suggestions, the report continued.

The level of engagement between Obama and Biden and his staff shows the former president's support for Biden, the report said.

However, according to a senior aide, this is also proof of Obama's "big concern" about Trump's possible victory in the 2024 presidential election.

The aide, who spoke anonymously, said Obama was always worried about Biden's possible defeat.

Obama is also said to be ready to "contribute" with Biden in competition that may result in a narrow margin of voice victory in some states, the report said.
