President Joe Biden sat down with the women of The View on Wednesday for a tie-free interview. 

“I am at peace with my decision,” Biden said when asked how he felt about exiting the presidential race in late July. “Look, when I ran for this last term, I said that I was going—I saw myself as a transition president. Transitioning to a new generation of leadership.” 

“Now, I know I only look 40, but I’m 180 years old,” Biden joked. 

“We were having so much success in getting things done that people thought we couldn't get done, I found myself having used more time than I would have ordinarily to, you know, pass that torch,” he added.
