President Joe Biden claimed on Friday that he had no regrets about running for re-election last year, which ultimately hamstrung the Democratic Party as it did not have time to have a competitive primary after Biden was forced out of the race following his mental collapse at the presidential debate against President-elect Donald Trump.

Biden made the remarks during an evening press conference at the White House, one of the rare moments that he has answered questions from reporters.

“Do you regret your decision to run for re-election?” a reporter asked Biden. “Do you think that that made it easier for your predecessor to now become your successor?”

Biden responded: “I don’t think so. I think I would have beaten Trump, could have beaten Trump, and I think that Kamala could have beaten Trump and would have beaten Trump.”

He continued, “I thought it was important to unify the party and when the party was worried about whether or not I was going to be able to move — I thought, even though I thought I could win again — I thought it was better to unify the party and I had — it was the greatest honor in my life to be President of United States, but I didn’t want to be one who caused a party that wasn’t unified to lose an election and that’s why I stepped aside, but I was confident she could win.”
