Biden Spoke About A Surprising Letter From Trump

It struck the former U.S. president as remarkably friendly.

Former U.S. President Joe Biden described in his forthcoming memoir, *Promise Me, America,” a letter that Donald Trump left for him at the White House in January 2021 during the transition of power following his defeat in the 2020 election. The New York Times obtained an excerpt from the book: according to the publication, Biden quoted the message in its entirety.

According to Biden, after reading it, he got the impression that there are two different Trumps. On the one hand, there was the public politician who, in the former president’s view, had seriously undermined the stability of American democracy and refused to hold the traditional meeting with his successor. On the other hand, there was the author of a personal letter written so warmly that it resembled a message from an old friend.

“You now have the opportunity to choose your place in history, and I know you will remain true to yourself and to the American people,” Trump wrote, as Biden recalls.

Furthermore, according to Biden’s account, Trump noted that many presidents simply governed the country as Republicans or Democrats and did not change the course of history, but merely went with the flow. But Biden, he said, faces no such risk, because he knows how much the American people love him.

“Your strength, your deepest source of energy, is the realization that millions and millions of people are counting on you. Their ambitions and aspirations are the reason you are here, and so many people are hoping for your success,” the letter read.

In closing, Trump wished Biden, his wife Jill, and the United States well.

Another episode in the book involves a meeting at the White House in November 2024, following Trump’s election victory. According to The Atlantic, Biden was once again surprised by the future president’s friendliness.

“Trump immediately began chatting animatedly with me and surprised me with such a friendly tone that I even wondered if he was pulling my leg. It was almost fawning,” Biden recalls.

Trump, he says, remarked, “You know, Joe, if it weren’t for politics, I think we could be good friends.” Biden replied that without politics, they would probably spend all their free time together playing golf.
