Wednesday, 24 March 2021_US President Joe Biden has signaled to his top advisers that he is resolved to make another bid for the presidency in 2024.

Biden aides stress a second term for US presidentHe had previously announced that he would be a “transition” president who just wants to take the power out of former President Donald Trump’s hand.

“I don’t think there’s any reason to say that he won’t [run again in 2024],” said one of Biden’s top advisers.

Meanwhile, another adviser of the Democratic president noted that he has said nothing about not running again.

“So we all assume that he is,” the adviser added, “contrary to this sentiment that he’ll be a one-term president because of his own volition.”

He, however, reiterated that it is too soon to talk about another presidential bid.

“He hasn’t even fully staffed up the White House yet,” the adviser said. “There’s a lot to do before he even reaches the point where he has to make a final decision.”

The speculations around Biden’s bid for a second term come as his health is under intense scrutiny following his Friday fall on the steps of Air Force One.
