Read Original Source
President Joe Biden told campaign donors Tuesday that he wasn’t sure he’d be running for reelection if Donald Trump wasn’t also in the race, warning that democracy is “more at risk in 2024” and that the former president and his allies are out to “destroy” democratic institutions.
AI Summary
Main Idea: President Joe Biden told donors he may not be running again if Donald Trump were not in the race, and he warned that Trump poses a threat to democracy.
Key Points:
- Biden said the 2024 election is about defending democracy and that Trump must not win.
- He pointed to Trump’s refusal to accept the 2020 election results and the Jan. 6 Capitol attack as reasons for concern.

- Biden is using major fundraisers to boost his campaign, and his team says donations and grassroots support remain strong.
