Biden said he has long felt Trump is unfit for the presidency, but that with 12 days until the inauguration he is focused on his agenda, particularly addressing the coronavirus pandemic and subsequent economic fallout.
Pressed on what guidance he would give to Congress if asked for his thoughts on impeachment, he again deferred.
"I'd tell them that's a decision for the Congress to make. I'm focused on my job," he said.
The president-elect later indicated he felt the best course of action may be to simply let the clock run out on Trump's term.
"I think it's important we get on with the business of getting him out of office. The quickest way that will happen is us getting sworn in on the 20th," Biden said. "What happens before or after that is a judgment for the Congress to make, but that's what I'm looking forward to: him leaving office."
