Biden’s complacency warning relates to the current political climate in the US. The video where he shares his campaign opens with footage of the violent US Capital riots from over two years ago.

There is also a reminder of Republican attempts to restrict abortion access and to limit voter access. Biden also reminds viewers of the Republican clampdown on the LGBTQIA+ community.

Biden is the oldest US President to date. If reelected for 2024, he will begin his second term at the age of 86.

Kamala Harris, Joe Biden’s current deputy, is set to run for another term as vice-president. Harris, 58, made history back in 2020 by becoming the first female vice-president. She was also the first African-American and Asian-American to hold the position.
