Biden to address nation as Trump targets Harris on campaign cash

The Oval Office speech will mark the 81-year-old Democrat’s first extended remarks since his dramatic announcement that he was exiting the White House race and endorsing his vice president, Kamala Harris, to take the fight to Donald Trump.

But the outlines were made clear by the President’s team as he seeks to explain his decision to end his re-election bid following mounting doubts about his fitness to serve since a debate debacle against Mr Trump.
