President Joe Biden said dozens of Democrats could beat Donald Trump but he still has the best chance of preventing the Republican former president from returning to the White House.

“Probably 50 of them,” Biden told reporters Wednesday when asked if he believed other Democrats could defeat Trump, or if only he could do so. “I’m not the only one, but I will defeat him.”
