With reports of former President Trump possibly running for president in 2024, the Biden administration is not turning their noses up at their potential opposing candidate. White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain talked to Mike Allen of Axios HBO on Sunday about how serious of a candidate the former president is.
“I wouldn’t want to estimate or underestimate Donald Trump as an opponent if he chooses to run,” Klain said.
Trump has said he is considering to run in 2024. No official announcements have been made yet.
President Biden is also up for a rematch. He told reporters in March that while he’s “never been able to plan” four years into the future, but that he expects to run for a second term.

“My experience, Mike, is that incumbent presidents are judged on their record,” Klain said in his interview. “President Trump had a bad record in 2020. Joe Biden is hopefully assembling a powerful record to run on if he runs for reelection in 2024.”
