President Joe Biden, in a recent interaction with reporters outside the White House, stated that he hasn't been seen in front of large crowds because the Secret Service has deemed it "too dangerous" for him to hold such events.

The president didn't elaborate on the nature of the danger.

He mentioned that while he enjoyed a recent campaign stop with Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris, he isn't allowed to go out as often as he'd like due to security concerns.

Biden emphasized that the decision to limit his public appearances was made by the Secret Service, who believe it's unsafe for anyone, including him, to be in large crowds.
