80 years young.
On Sunday, Biden will reach a major milestone when he is expected to spend his 80th birthday quietly with his family, many of whom will be at the White House to mark another occasion: His granddaughter Naomi’s wedding.
Biden allies say they know the day will be used by his rivals, who want to cast the president as lacking the energy and mental acuity needed for the job.
The question is increasingly relevant, critics say, as Biden considers reelection, though the president’s supports say the age-based attacks are markedly unfair.
“I’m sure Republicans will use the day to remind everyone that he’s some out-of-it octogenarian, which couldn’t be farther from the truth,” one Biden ally said.
Michael Eric Dyson, the renowned scholar who met with Biden last year as part of a small group of historians, said this of the GOP criticism: “Joe Biden has proven time and again that it’s, as he would call it, malarky.”
“When we see LeBron James and Tom Brady performing 20 years into their careers, that’s the indication that 80 may be the new 60, and I’m all for it,” Dyson said.
“The reason he can fall off his bicycle is because he was on it in the first damn place,” he added.
Just read that the 28-year-old granddaughter and her boyfriend live in the White House. They are both professionals with jobs that pay well, and they live with Joe. No need to rent a venue for the wedding. It will be at the White House.
Jill Biden’s staff says the Biden family is paying for the wedding.
Oh boy, the amenities that come with that address.
And no rent ? Joe wouldn't charge them rent, would he?
