US President Joe Biden says he dropped his re-election bid because he feared the intra-party battle over his candidacy would be a "real distraction" for Democrats and that his highest priority was defeating Donald Trump in November.
In his first interview since leaving the race, Biden, 81, said he had "no serious problems" with his health. He blamed his poor performance in the debate on being ill at the time, dismissing any concern about his age.
The US president vowed to campaign for Kamala Harris, saying he would do whatever his vice president "thinks I can do to help as much as possible".
"We must, we must, we must defeat Trump," he told US broadcaster CBS News.
