Biden clashes with reporter over Transferring Power to Kamala Harris during Second term: ‘Did you fall on your head?’”

President Biden’s response to a reporter’s inquiry about his plans for a potential second term sparked headlines as he prepared to address a rally at a school gym in Philadelphia.

When asked whether he intended to complete a full second term or hand over power to Vice President8 Kamala Harris before January 2029, Biden’s reaction was swift and pointed.

In a moment captured on camera at Philadelphia International Airport, the 81-year-old president lashed out, questioning the reporter’s well-being and suggesting a head injury.

Despite the reporter’s request for clarification, Biden’s response maintained a concerned yet humorous tone, eliciting laughter from those present, including Senator Bob Casey (D-Pa.).

The incident highlighted ongoing Republican assertions that a vote for Biden implies a transition to Harris in the Oval Office, especially considering Biden’s age.

Polls indicate widespread public concern over his capacity to serve a full eight-year term.

Returning to his birth state for a rally alongside Harris, Biden targeted black voters ahead of his upcoming rematch against former President Donald Trump on November 5th.

Harris echoed Biden’s sentiments, warning of further consequences should Trump secure a second term.

Throughout his address, Biden criticized Trump’s actions, labeling him “clearly unhinged” and referencing his handling of Black Lives Matter protests following George Floyd’s murder.

Reflecting on the Capitol riots of January 6, 2021, Biden speculated on Trump’s response had black Americans been involved.

Amidst promises to enact legislation and defend voting rights, Biden’s campaign estimated attendance at the Girard College event to be around 1,000, with seating areas only half-filled.

The reasons for the limited turnout were not immediately clear, though previous public appearances by Biden have faced challenges, including heckling related to his stance on the Israeli-Gaza conflict.
