Biden and Harris Relationship Strains Following Election

Following Donald Trump's victory in the recent presidential election, President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, along with their spouses, have experienced a significant deterioration in their relationships, described as 'frosty' by sources. First Lady Jill Biden's discontent with Harris dates back to the 2020 debates when Harris criticized Biden's stance on federal busing policies. Biden has expressed regret over stepping aside for Harris's campaign, believing he could have defeated Trump if he had stayed in the race. Despite this, aides insist Biden does not blame Harris for the election loss, although many Democrats attribute part of the defeat to Biden's delayed withdrawal. The situation has led to speculation about the future of Biden's presidency and his previous commitment to serve only one term, as some believe his decision to run again has undermined that promise. Both the Biden and Harris teams have publicly denied any significant issues between them, despite the reported tensions.
