Some Biden aides viewed Obama as disrespectful, pointing to remarks like his joking reference to Biden as \u201cVice President\u201d during a public event.

Harris&#8217;s team even prepared for the possibility Biden might die in office. After Biden\u2019s poor debate showing in June 2024, party pressure mounted until he stepped aside in July. Despite Obama\u2019s backing, Harris failed to defeat Trump in the shortest modern campaign.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New Book Reveals Obama Slammed Biden\u2019s 2024 Campaign: \u201cYour Campaign Is a Mess\u201d A new book, 2024: How Trump Retook the White House, details Barack Obama\u2019s early concerns about Joe Biden\u2019s re-election campaign, which he described as disorganized.
