The last time Biden gave remarks from behind the Resolute desk was when he addressed his decision to withdraw from the 2024 campaign.

“I revere this office but I love my country more,” Biden said at the time. “It’s been the honor of my life to serve as president but in the defense of democracy, which is at stake, I think it’s more important than any title.”
