Biden’s age is just a number, a problematic one for reelection

Biden is a man of a certain age and that's a big problem for his reelection. Seventy-seven percent of those polled think he is too old for four more years in office.

 AP cushioned the blow by shaming the voters: "Age discrimination may be banned in the workplace but the president's employers — the people — aren't shy about their bias." 

 What about former President Donald Trump, who's 77? About half of U.S. adults say Trump is too old for the office, and here "Democrats are far more likely to disqualify Trump by age than are Republicans." 

Trump is now the age that Ronald Reagan was at the end of his second term, and Democrats and cartoonists mocked Reagan as senile and decrepit. Biden could be inaugurated for a second term at 82.  Voters of all ages have grown concerned as California Democrat Sen. Dianne Feinstein (at 90) is being told what to do on the job and Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell (at 81) has repeatedly frozen into silence at press conference podiums.
