    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    The event in question — a Los Angeles fundraiser hosted by Jimmy Kimmel — included a viral moment where it appeared Obama led a frozen Biden offstage.

    According to an anonymous former Obama aide who spoke to the Times, the former president was surprised by how Biden had “aged and seemed disoriented.”

    This resentment partially stems from Obama discouraging Biden from running for president in 2016 to make room for Hillary Clinton, the Times reported.

    However, the Times also reports that Biden believes Obama to be behind the wave of Democrats urging him to step down, according to people close to the President.

    Multiple reports indicate that Obama expressed concerns about Biden’s ability to beat Republican nominee Donald Trump.

    “He’s the best person to take on Donald Trump,” Biden’s reelection campaign chair, Jen O’Malley Dillon, said on “Morning Joe.”
