With Joe Biden’s bombshell decision to drop out of the 2024 race, he joins the small pool of former presidents who decided not to seek reelection when they were eligible. Presidents like Lyndon B. Johnson, Harry Truman and Theodore Roosevelt. But no presidential incumbent has ever dropped out this close to an election. Reset discusses how Biden’s decision fits into a wider history, as well as what this means for his legacy, with Will Howell, a professor of the Harris School of Public Policy at the University of Chicago.
