Biden predicts 'loser' Trump won't concede in 2024 no matter what happens

Speaking to the New Yorker in a rare Oval Office interview, President Joe Biden expressed doubt as whether Donald Trump would concede the election if he loses in 2024.

"Losers who are losers are never graceful," Biden said.

"I just think that he'll do anything to try to win. If — and when — I win, I think he'll contest it. No matter what the result is," he added.

During his interview with the New Yorker's Evan Osnos for a profile called The Last Campaign, Biden presented a white note card on the Resolute Desk that was filled with quotes from Trump, where he disparaged immigrants and undermined the U.S. Constitution.

"What the hell?!" Biden told Osnos. "If you and I had sat down 10 years ago and I said a president is going to say those things, you would have looked at me like: 'Biden, you've lost your senses.'"

When Osnos asked Biden if he ever considered not running again, Biden replied no.

"I'm running again because I think two things: No. 1, I'm really proud of my record, and I want to keep it going. I'm optimistic about the future. ... And, secondly, I look out there, and I say: 'O.K., we're just — most of what I've done is just kicking in now," Biden said.

According to Osnos, "there was a lightness about Joe Biden" in the past that he described as "a springy, mischievous energy that was hard not to like."

That seems to have changed, however.

"For better and worse, he is a more solemn figure now. His voice is thin and clotted, and his gestures have slowed, but, in our conversation, his mind seemed unchanged. He never bungled a name or a date," Osnos writes.
