President Biden said he does not have a preference between facing former President Trump or Nikki Haley in the 2024 general election.
Biden said, “Oh, I don’t care.”
He made the comments as he departed for a California fundraising trip.

When asked if the trip was about a “plan B” and if Governor Newsom needs to “stand by,” Biden pivoted without answering.
“Are you ready?” asked the President.
“I’m looking at you,” he added.
He is the frontrunner for the Democratic nomination but faces long-shot primary challenges.
Trump and Haley have been campaigning in South Carolina’s upcoming primary, though other GOP candidates have suspended their bids.
After early contests, Trump leads with 63 delegates to Haley’s 17, with 1,215 needed to win the nomination.
Haley says she will continue campaigning through early March primaries.
