Former President Joe Biden recently shared that world leaders and U.S. lawmakers from both sides of the political aisle have been reaching out to him for advice and urging him to remain active in politics during President Donald Trump’s second term.
Biden, who spoke at the Society for Human Resource Management in San Diego, revealed that he is still involved in politics, albeit behind the scenes. He expressed his passion for the work he did during his time in office and his concern about the rapid changes being made to his policy achievements by the current administration.
Despite not being as publicly visible, Biden disclosed that he has been receiving calls from European leaders asking for his engagement. While he is not actively getting involved, he has been offering advice as he believes America’s leadership is crucial in a world where the consequences of mistakes are greater than ever before.
The former President emphasized the importance of not walking away from the responsibilities that come with leadership. He mentioned that he has been in touch with both Democrats and Republicans who seek his perspective on various issues, not because they believe he has all the answers, but to bounce ideas off of him.
In addition to his continued engagement in political matters, Biden shared that he is diligently working on writing a new memoir documenting his presidency. The memoir, expected to be around 500 pages, will focus on the impact of his presidency on the world and reflect on the events that transpired during his time in office.
Overall, Biden’s commitment to staying involved in politics and his willingness to offer guidance and insight to current leaders highlight his dedication to public service and his belief in the importance of American leadership on the global stage.
