There is speculation the recent media storm against US President Joe Biden is being driven by elements that want to see him retire and not run again, former White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney says.
Revelations of classified White House documents discovered in a private office of Joe Biden’s and in his Delaware home following his time as vice president have stifled the momentum Democrats gained following the midterm elections.
The first tranche of files was discovered before the midterm elections but was not reported on until recently. “So some folks are saying that there were forces at hand trying to protect Biden and help him in the midterms,” Mr Mulvaney told Sky News host James Morrow. “But now that you get this slow drip, drip of information coming out about new documents … and for the first time attacking the president in the press.
“It is fuelling that argument that there are people who are using this as an excuse to sort of nudge Joe Biden out.”

'Joe Biden seems to have been a little careless when it comes to keeping classified documents in secure locations and not where, say, his son Hunter might find them,' Mr Morrow said. 'We also know that Hunter Biden lived at the Delaware address when the documents are thought to have been in the garage – and according to one background check document said he paid $50,000 a month in rent to Joe for the privilege. 'Could that have been some of the notorious ten per cent for the Big Guy we've heard so much about?'
