Biden avoids Trump indictment controversy.

President Biden is avoiding commenting on the possibility of Donald Trump becoming the first former president to face criminal charges, with the White House believing it is best to stay out of it. By not engaging, Biden is respecting the traditional White House approach not to weigh into pending investigations or influence law enforcement, particularly within a state or local jurisdiction. Trump is the current frontrunner for the Republican presidential nomination in 2024 and possible election opponent of Biden in a rematch of 2020.
