Biden set to leave with little fanfare, sources say
Washington: President Joe Biden is planning to exit office with a relatively low-key final stretch, with no major events or fanfare planned, sources close to the White House have revealed.
The 79-year-old President, who is soon to be succeeded by Republican President-elect Donald Trump, is expected to devote his remaining time in office to wrapping up administrative tasks and making a few farewell speeches.
Despite his brief tenure as President, Biden has earned widespread praise for his efforts to combat climate change, his stance on social justice issues, and his attempts to address income inequality.
Since taking office, Biden has been known for his down-to-earth, approachable demeanor and his ability to connect with ordinary Americans, earning him the nickname “Uncle Joe.”
The President’s low-key exit is seen by many as a testament to his humility and a desire to avoid drawing attention to himself, especially during a time of great change in the country.
Biden’s plans for his post-White House life are still unclear, but sources say he has expressed a desire to remain involved in public life, possibly through his foundation or philanthropic work.
White House officials have declined to comment on the President’s plans, but it is believed that his focus will be on ensuring a smooth transition to the new administration, with President-elect Trump set to take office in a matter of weeks.
The quiet exit is seen as a departure from the more lavish sendoffs given to previous Presidents, who often culminate their terms with grand farewell tours and parties.
