US election 2024: Joe Biden says stopping Donald Trump is motivation to run | BBC News
US President Joe Biden has said part of his motivation to run for a second term next year is to prevent the return of Donald Trump.
“We cannot let him win,” Mr Biden told reporters.
At a Fox News event, Mr Trump said that he thought Mr Biden was too old for such a political rematch.
Mr Trump is the runaway front-runner in the Republican race even as he faces four criminal cases. Mr Biden, as the incumbent president, is the presumptive Democratic nominee.
But neither candidate is yet the official nominee of their respective party.

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

The Trump Georgia trial will presumably be a carefully orchestrated show trial, if it isn’t and the defence can freely show evidence then it will be proven it was rigged and fraudulent. There will be witnesses to widespread fraud, judges changing election rules which can only be done by state legislatures and in many counties Trump winning until mysteriously late surges in mail in ballots almost 100% for Biden and just enough to win.

He’s been forced into a corner where he has to try absolutely everything possible to ensure it doesn’t end in the way they want it to. They said it themselves: ‘all or nothing’. All for who? Nothing for who? Something that should have taken a couple of weeks (not several years) shouldn’t need to come to such a decision. You have to ask yourself why these people are relinquishing themselves of any responsibility for his fate if it was supposed to be a nice fate?
They were not expecting this saga to be played out in the public arena. So they have to wash their hands of it all now. They were not expecting to be exposed so openly and cannot accept being left in a position of utter humiliation.
They’ve ran out of words to label him (having already over used: toxic, nasty, hate and dangerous). The latest one they’ve come up with is ‘rude’, simply for having natural desires to win an election. And ‘close minded’, simply because he doesn’t agree with their very narrow perspective (how ironic that these people, of all people, have come up with that one!).
These people obviously underestimated him as he is still standing years longer they had envisaged. One thing is for certain, he is prepared for the fight of his life, given that this thing will go right until the early hours of election night and he can only hope and pray that he will be the one standing at the end of it.

This is not worth the amount of reporting that it's getting. It means nothing and doesn't affect anything, report on things of importance. You're feeding the manipulation and confusion with this junk.

This gonna be so much fun, if trump thinks he was beat the last time because of cheating,
then this next time he's really going to lose his siht.
He's about to be beaten by tens of millions of votes. And that's just a stone-cold fact.

One Biden election add was: A vote for Biden is a vote against Trump.
Biden had no stance, except he stated he would fix the covid problem and be upfront with the people. It was Trumps pay in advance for a vaccine that got Biden his only covid tool and whispering on TV "WEAR A MASK", was all he had. Then it turns out that he is in bed with the TV media in a "WAG THE DOG" situation. Where AI runs the TV news media to get ratings, & brain washes the people, who are represented by politicians, which means that AI is running our government, to get money for lazy TV people. They don't seem to care about destroying the government that has at least tried to keep freedom alive around the world since WW1. Now Biden is collecting millions of dollars in campaign contributions and he is too old to run for office. A brain dead puppet is all he can be. The Easter Bunny has to tell him where to go. He likes ice cream.

Biden is a disgrace to America along side his far left administration. Trump was for the people, Biden and his corrupt family are for themselves.
