CNN anchor Abby Phillip compared President Biden stepping down from his re-election bid to George Washington refusing to run for a third presidential term.
CNN anchor Abby Phillip claimed President Biden’s decision not to seek re-election makes him like America’s first president and founding father, George Washington. During a panel discussion on CNN ahead of Biden’s address to the nation Wednesday night, Phillip argued that the 46th president made a similar sacrifice to the country’s first president in withdrawing from his campaign.
Some, like Phillip, have compared Biden’s decision – which he announced last Sunday and addressed again in his Wednesday speech – to Washington refusing to seek a third term as president to deny himself more power and avoid being seen as someone with 'concealed ambition.
