"Look, I'm very young, energetic, and handsome. What the hell am I doing this for?" US President Biden joked towards the end of the video.
United States President Joe Biden recently released a campaign advertisement for the 2024 Presidential Elections on social media and cracked jokes about his age. "Look I'm not a young guy, that's no secret," he said in an ad released on Saturday. I'm not a young guy. That's no secret. But, here's the deal: I understand how to get things done for the American people.Here's the first ad of our spring media campaign. pic.twitter.com/SFvwMdgzwv
The 81-year-old President appeared relaxed in the video and responded to the joke about his age by citing his many years of experience, "But here's the deal, I understand how to get things done for the American people." He then described the achievements of his administration, such as combating the Covid-19 crisis, strengthening the economy, and bringing down the cost of prescription drugs, before launching into talking points that are particularly pertinent to younger voters.
"Today, we have the strongest economy in the world. I passed a law that lowers prescription drug prices, caps insulin at $35 a month for seniors," he said.
