JUST IN: Frank Biden Suggests Joe’s Health Is WORSE Than Previously Known: ‘Whatever Time We Have Left’
President Joe Biden has decided not to seek reelection, endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris as his successor. The major announcement came on Sunday, creating a new shift in the upcoming presidential race.
Now, a candid interview with Frank Biden, the president’s younger brother, has shed new light on personal and possibly troubling insights into Joe Biden’s decision. Frank revealed a mixture of pride and realism during his brief exchange with CBS News. “I’m incredibly proud of my brother,” he said.
“Selfishly, I will have him back to enjoy whatever time we have left.” His words, hinting at a deeper concern, suggested that the president’s health may be more compromised than previously acknowledged.
According to Frank, the president’s health and vitality were “absolutely” a major factor in his decision to step aside. He lauded his brother’s selflessness and dedication to the country, calling him a “genuine hero.” Frank finished, “The goal remains the same, defeat Trump and continue the work that Joe has done.”

Sunday’s news came as a notable departure from the White House and Biden family’s previous statements, which have consistently denied any significant health concerns affecting Joe Biden’s capabilities. His decision to endorse Harris and step back from the presidential race also sparked various reactions about the implications for the Democrat Party for this November.
Many Democrats and media talking heads have mourned the president’s decision. Delaware Senator Chris Coons, a Democrat and close ally of Biden, was seen breaking down in tears on national television. “Joe Biden is grounded. He’s grounded in his faith, in his family, and in our state. Excuse me,” said Coons as he started to tear up.
“I’m sorry. I’m sorry. This was a very difficult decision.”

CNN’s Van Jones also became emotional after Biden’s decision to drop out. “It’s kind of like when your grandpa … you gotta take the keys,” he said. “And he’s fighting and he’s fighting you and everybody’s so frustrated. And then you finally get the keys back. Then you just cry.”
“This is somebody that you care about. This is somebody that was there for you. You wouldn’t be here without him,” Jones said on Sunday.

“While it has been my intention to seek re-election, I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down and focus entirely on fulfilling my duties as president for the remainder of my term,” Biden said in his official statement.

In response to Biden’s decision, former President Donald Trump did not mince his words. Trump told NBC News that Biden “is the worst president in the history of the United States by far.”
“There has never been a president who has done such damage to our country, from energy independence to letting in millions and millions of illegal immigrants.” When questioned about his reaction to Biden’s announcement, Trump suggested that Biden’s presidency was a mistake from the start. “He should never have been there in the first place,” adding, “He should have stayed in his basement.”
