US President Joe Biden, who is not yet on the campaign trail but is very openly flirting with a run in the 2024 election, will participate in two fundraisers next week, a source in the Democratic camp said.
The octogenarian leader will be in New York next Tuesday and then in Philadelphia on Friday, where he will meet with wealthy supporters to fill his party’s coffers.
“The Intent to Represent”
These fundraisers are essential to America’s political campaigns, worth hundreds of millions of dollars. And little by little, the architecture of a possible candidacy for the octogenarian leader begins to take shape.
In December, the president had already convinced the Democratic Party to completely upset the calendar of its primaries, strengthening the influence of the African-American vote that had been very favorable to him in 2020.
Joe Biden has so far said that he “intends to run” for president in 2024 and has vowed to make his decision public early in the year.
Political pundits are predicting a possible announcement after his State of the Union address, a traditional general policy address by presidents given to parliamentarians, and scheduled for February 7.
