President Joe Biden expressed his deep concerns about the state of democracy in the United States during his farewell address on Wednesday night. Despite having served in politics for 50 years, Biden did not feel a sense of relief but rather a sense of worry about the fragility of democracy.
In an interview with MSNBC, Biden shared his apprehensions, stating, 'There was a sense of serious concern. I really am concerned about how fragile democracy is.' He emphasized that he believes the country is at a critical juncture in history, where significant changes are imminent, irrespective of any specific leader.
Biden's remarks during his farewell address and subsequent interview underscore his fears about the direction the nation is heading. He cautioned about the potential erosion of the institutions that he has spent over five decades respecting and upholding.
