Biden, Harris to make first joint campaign appearance since 2024 race shake-up

Kamala Harris and President Joe Biden are set to make their first joint campaign appearance next week since Biden’s decision to withdraw from the 2024 presidential race against Donald Trump.

The event is scheduled for August 15 in Maryland, near Washington.

The White House announced on Friday that Harris and Biden would discuss their progress in lowering costs for Americans, a critical issue as inflation remains a challenge ahead of the November election. Details of the event will be released later.

Biden’s withdrawal followed a debate performance against Trump that raised concerns about his age and cognitive abilities. Since then, Vice President Harris has taken the lead, energizing the Democratic Party with rallies and record-breaking fundraising efforts. Her efforts have also helped to erase Trump’s lead in the polls.

Biden has limited his public appearances but remains focused on promoting his achievements and supporting Harris’s campaign.

He is expected to play a key role in battleground states like Pennsylvania and Michigan, where he remains popular among older white voters.

In addition to his campaign efforts, Biden has prioritized diplomatic initiatives, including pushing for a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.

The president, along with the leaders of Egypt and Qatar, has invited the conflicting parties to resume talks on August 15, coinciding with his campaign event with Harris.

In a recent interview with CBS, Biden expressed concerns about the likelihood of a peaceful transfer of power if Trump were to lose the election again, reflecting ongoing tensions in the political landscape.
