The former president of the United States, Barack Obama, rejected the possibility of joining the administration of President-elect Joe Biden, according to statements to the CBS “60 Minutes” program. Obama believes that Biden does not need him as an advisor, but that was the 44th president of the United States and he was available to “help him in any way he can.”
“I will help you in any way I can. Now, I don’t plan on suddenly working on the White House team or anything, “Obama said in an interview with the US television station. The interview was broadcast on Sunday.
“There are things I would not do, because Michelle would leave me. Yes, she would say ‘What? What are you going to do? ‘”Added the former president jokingly.
But more seriously, Obama explained that Joe Biden, who was vice president of his administration between 2009 and 2017, “does not need” his advice.
The CBS interview with Obama comes at a time when Biden was already considered the winner of the presidential election on November 3, although the outgoing president, Donald Trump, insists on not acknowledging the electoral defeat, saying that there was fraud in the count of votes.
Regarding the current situation, Obama regretted the role played by the Republican Party, with regard to the transition of administrations. The former US head of state admits that the country is “deeply divided” and criticized the fact that some Republicans do not question the accusations without evidence from Trump. “It was disappointing, but it has been normal for the last four years,” he said.
“Obviously, they don’t believe there is fraud, because they didn’t say anything for the first two days, but there is a loss in that.” According to Barack Obama, “the peaceful transition of power, the notion that whoever is elected to office, be it a dog saver or a president, serves the people […] It’s a temporary job “.
“Joe Biden will be the next president of the United States of America, Kamala Harris will be the next vice president,” he emphasized.
On his Twitter account, Donald Trump has already admitted that Biden won the electoral race. However, he insisted that there was indeed fraud. The social network tagged the post as: “This statement on voter fraud is controversial.”
“He won because the elections were rigged. No observer votes were allowed, the votes were counted by a radical left private company Dominion, which has a bad reputation and a deceptive team that did not even qualify to operate in Texas (where I won with a big advantage), and the organs false and silent communication, and much more! “, it reads.
He won because the election was rigged. NO OBSERVERS OR OBSERVERS VOTE ALLOWED, vote tabulated by radical leftist private company Dominion with a bad reputation and team that couldn’t even qualify for Texas (which I won by big!), Fake & Silent Media, & more! https://t.co/Exb3C1mAPg
