Trump says he was ‘kidding’ about Dana White press secretary job, amid online mix-up claims

In his forthcoming White House memoir, former President Joe Biden writes that Donald Trump's administration has inflicted significant harm on the United States and the world. Biden asserts that Trump's relentless efforts to undermine institutions and stir up hatred should follow him to his grave. The 46th president's memoir, tentatively titled "Promise Me, America," is scheduled for release on November 17.

Biden's health has limited his activities in connection with the book; however, he remains optimistic about his response to cancer treatment. The memoir examines the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, where Trump supporters, intent on impeding the certification of Democrat Joe Biden's election win, engaged in violent protests.

According to Biden, Trump's objective was to retain power even after the American electorate had voted him out of office. He expresses disappointment in Trump's issuance of more than 1,500 pardons to the insurgents. The former president argues that Trump and his supporters fail to acknowledge the brutality they witnessed and improperly project themselves as law enforcement allies.

Biden laments Trump's Department of Government Efficiency and his policy reversals, particularly concerning climate change. He notes that all presidents confront the challenge of their legacies being vulnerable to political shifts and successor whims. Biden highlights his own difficulties with his presidency's legacy, magnified by Trump's dismissive and destructive approach.

Despite Democrats' victory in the midterm elections, Biden acknowledges the lingering skepticism about his presidency and his party. In a social media post, Biden promotes his memoir as a comprehensive explanation of his presidency, decisions, and reasons behind them. The memoir's title is inspired by his earlier book, "Promise Me, Dad," which was written about his son Beau's battle with and eventual death from cancer.
