Biden Marks 82nd Birthday as Oldest Sitting President

President Biden celebrates his birthday quietly with family, having recently returned from a South American trip.

  • President Biden spent his 82nd birthday at home after a low-key visit to South America, with no public events scheduled.
  • During his trip, Biden became the first U.S. president to visit the Amazon rainforest but did not engage with the press, leading to frustration among reporters.
  • Biden's age has been a significant topic, especially after he withdrew from the 2024 presidential race following a poor debate performance.
  • Vice President Kamala Harris replaced Biden in the election, as concerns about his age and fitness for office grew.
  • President-elect Donald Trump, at 78, will soon surpass Biden as the oldest person to assume the presidency.
