    No, he shouldn’t. He’s 81 right now, he’ll be 82 just after the election. If he wins in 2024, he’ll be 86 when he leaves office.

    Assuming he lives that long. Life expectancy for an American male is 77.28 years. The likelyhood of him finishing his second term is low.

    And, he’s only 4 years older than Trump. Trump will be 78 to Biden’s 82. Both past their “Use By” date.

      The life expectancy at 80 is 87 for men in the US. He’d likely live through his next term if he was elected. You aren’t wrong about both of them being too old though.
