If he were to serve a second term, Joe Biden would be 86 years old when it was over.
As the midterm elections and 2024 presidential race approach closer, more and more Democrats are becoming concerned about President Joe Biden’s advanced age.
Some Democratic heavyweights, such as Obama strategist David Axelrod, are anxious about a possible re-election attempt by President Joe Biden in 2024 when he will be 79 years old. Even if he were to win a second term as President, Joe Biden would be 86 years old, and he is already facing criticism for a series of gaffes and misstatements that have been attributed to his older age.
“The presidency is a monstrously taxing job,” Axelrod was quoted as saying by the New York Times. The obvious truth is that towards the end of a second term, the president would be closer to 90 years old than 80 years old, and this would be a huge problem. A second term would create a significant problem because of this age difference.
People who desire younger leadership in 2024 will line up behind Axelrod because he is glad for Biden’s victory over former President Donald Trump in 2020. These people will line up behind Axelrod because Axelrod is happy about Biden’s victory.
