Biden Says Global Leaders Still Seek His Advice After Stepping Down
Despite stepping down amid criticism, former President Joe Biden claims he’s still being contacted by European leaders and U.S. lawmakers for advice. Speaking at a San Diego event, Biden said he’s offering behind-the-scenes guidance, though he’s “not getting involved.” Critics questioned the claim, pointing to controversies during his presidency—rising inflation, border issues, and the Hunter Biden scandal—as reasons his influence is unlikely. A political analyst called the remarks “bold,” suggesting they reflect a blurred line between legacy and reality.
