    Are you sure? From https://www.newsweek.com/obama-telling-biden-leave-race-could-backfire-1924518

    In the aftermath of his troubling debate performance last month, Biden has faced an onslaught of criticism from members of his own party and even his allies who have publicly questioned his ability to serve another term. As the list of Democrats calling for Biden to step aside grows, former President Barack Obama has remained silent.

      yes I’m sure. Did you read the article you posted? It says the two are always at odds, and goes on to say that Biden also urged him not to run in 2016 as well. I dont think this is the proof you wanted. It says he has remained silent in this one situation but that he has urged him not to run before and that /bidens camp feels that Obamas camp always looks down on them. It does refute anything from the other articles about Obama noit supporting Biden’s candidacy. if anything you backed up my case.

      “As the Democratic Party’s recent intraparty drama plays out, many have recalled the tense relationship between Obama and Biden. It has been widely reported that Biden regrets listening to Obama and others in the party who urged him not to run for the White House in 2016”
