Mediaite <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mediaite.com\/news\/jen-psaki-reveals-surprising-details-about-secret-letter-that-trump-left-for-biden\/\">referred<\/a> to the letter as \u201csecret,\u201d since Biden has not disclosed the letter\u2019s contents, other than to say it was \u201cgenerous.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Joining actor Rob Lowe on his podcast \u201cLiterally! With Rob Lowe,\u201d the press secretary revealed that she thought about not telling Biden about the letter Trump left for him but ultimately decided against it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI said, you know, I think you\u2019re going to be asked about the letter that the former president left you,\u201d Psaki <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mediaite.com\/news\/jen-psaki-reveals-surprising-details-about-secret-letter-that-trump-left-for-biden\/\">recalled<\/a> speaking to Biden. \u201cAnd he said, \u2018Oh, did he leave me a letter?\u2019<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd I was like, am I telling him he was left a letter?\u201d the press secretary questioned. \u201cI don\u2019t know, okay?

I think, I think that\u2019s what happened.&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201c[Biden] kind of looked around for the letter and read the letter while I was sitting there, which was just kind of a remarkable moment,\u201d she said. \u201cHe didn\u2019t read aloud. He read it to himself. And he is such a classy guy \u2014 whether people agree with his politics or not \u2014 that he didn\u2019t even convey it to us in that moment of what the letter said, he kind of read the letter consumed it himself.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Psaki revealed\u00a0that the letter was \u201clong\u201d and the\u00a0handwriting was \u201clovely.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was very long of the script, from where I could see was very lovely,\u201d she told Lowe. \u201cBut I don\u2019t know what was in the letter. But yeah, that was one of my early memories.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On January 20, Biden <a href=\"https:\/\/people.com\/politics\/president-joe-biden-initially-kept-donald-trump-letter-private\/\">told<\/a> the press he wanted to keep the contents of the letter private, but noted that it was \u201cgenerous.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe president wrote a very generous letter,\u201d he said. \u201cBecause it was private, I will not talk about it until I talk to him.
