So... Joe Biden hasn't actually "admitted he'd probably only run for one term"?
Four sources from his campaign said that he won't but sure...the exact words did not come out of his mouth. This is, however, how things typically work. Candidate says/admits/plans something bad...his staff goes to journalists who write the story. Happens all the time. Politics journalism 101.
Uh, yeah. Because words matter. He did not "admit he'd probably only run for one term".
Which is what you said he did.
And now you're saying "four sources from his campaign said he won't."
But that's not really true, either, is it?
According to this article, it's "four people who regularly talk to Biden, all of whom asked for anonymity to discuss internal campaign matters." That's not necessarily four sources from his campaign, is it?
The closest this article gets to that is, "a prominent adviser to the campaign," and later "another top Biden adviser."
Look, it's very possible that he won't be running for a second term, after reading this article. Good to know. But let me point out again what you said.
"Remember when Biden admitted he'd probably only run for one term, ceding the incumbency advantage in a hypothetical re-election in 2024? And everyone either ignored it or was cool it?"I was surprised by this information, which is why I asked you for a source.
And the source you have given me tells me what you said wasn't true.
