"A presidential historian said Jill Biden has played a key role in Joe Biden’s decision to run for re-election.
"In contrast to past first ladies like Bess Truman and Lady Bird Johnson who wanted to leave Washington, Jill Biden enjoys her role and wants to stay in power.
“She is the vital part. Dr. Jill Biden is it,” Douglas Brinkley said.
" 'If you cut to ’68, Lyndon Johnson was – quit in March of ’68 and people will say because of Walter Cronkite. No,” he said. “The big thing was his health was bad, he had a bad heart, he was smoking, high blood pressure, tension, and Lady Bird Johnson didn’t want to stay in. And she wanted – let’s go back to Texas and convinced Johnson to step down.”
“ 'That’s not the case with Jill Biden. She likes power. She wants to stay. She wants some sense of revenge,” he added." . . .
