Former Obama adviser David Plouffe said Joe Biden’s claims that Barack Obama prevented him from making a 2016 presidential run were inaccurate.
“This notion that there was a red carpet available that, you know, Barack Obama blocked is just not based in reality,” Plouffe said. “Joe Biden would have run for president for the third time, for the nomination, would not have succeeded, and would have never been president.”
Reports have circulated for years that Biden was frustrated with his former boss for boxing him out running in 2016. “I’m not — and not a mean thing to say. He just thought that she had a better shot of winning the presidency than I did,” he said, referring to Clinton.
