President Biden said during a CNN town hall Tuesday night that all of the living former presidents have called him, except one.

Driving the news: After confirming that he's yet to hear from former President Trump, Biden was asked about the Senate's acquittal of his predecessor. But he didn't take the bait.

  • "I'm tired of talking about Donald Trump, don't want to talk about him anymore," he said.
  • "For four years all that’s been in the news is Trump. In the next four years I want to make sure all the news is the American people."
