From the New York Post: Former President Joe Biden told President Trump that he blamed fellow former President Barack Obama for the Democrats’ knockout loss in the 2024 election, the commander-in-chief revealed in a new interview.
Trump told the Spectator World he had visited the White House to meet with an “angry” Biden shortly after he defeated Vice President Kamala Harris — who took Biden’s place on the Democratic ticket after he was forced out of the race due to concerns over his age and abilities.
“I asked him, I said, ‘So who do you blame?’ Because he was very angry, you know, he was a very angry guy, actually. And he said, ‘I blame Barack,’” Trump said.
“And he said, ‘And I also blame [former House Speaker] Nancy Pelosi.’ I said, ‘What about the vice president?’ He said, ‘No, I don’t blame her,’ which was interesting.”
“He didn’t blame [Harris]. He blamed … he told me he blamed those two people,” the president said.
Trump visited Biden at the White House on November 13 to discuss the transition process, just days after defeating Kamala Harris in a massive landslide.
This was reportedly the day Biden revealed to Trump who he blamed for being shoved off the Democrat ticket.
Under pressure from Pelosi, Sen. Chuck Schumer, and Barack Obama, Biden, 82, had dropped out of his presidential re-election race on July 21 and endorsed Kamala Harris.

BD: Remain is obviously not a long term solution… what do you view as the long-term solution to make sure that Mexico handles this problem?
DJT: I would rather not tell you that. You know why.
BD: OK.
DJT: You know what the only solution is.https://t.co/fKeI0hrwkN
