Age becomes a thing for the first time in Biden and Trump campaign films | outside

In a new campaign video, Biden admits for the first time on Saturday that he is indeed old. But he says that will not be a problem if he is re-elected to a second term in November. “Look, I'm not young. This is no secret. But I understand how to get things done for the American people,” the 81-year-old Biden said.

He points to his achievements during his first term. “You led the country through the Corona crisis. Biden said that the American economy has now become the strongest in the entire world. “For four years, Donald Trump tried to pass an infrastructure bill. He couldn't manage it, but I did it, I got it done.” He also praises his climate efforts and promises to enshrine the right to abortion in national law once again.

In 2022, the Supreme Court overturned the landmark 1973 ruling in Roe v. Wade, meaning that women in the United States no longer have the constitutional right to an abortion. This happened because Trump appointed three conservative chief justices during his term and the Supreme Court became majority conservative.

“Donald Trump believes the presidency is there to take good care of Donald Trump. But I believe it's the president's job to fight for you, the American people,” Biden concludes his campaign message. He ends with a joke when someone off-screen asks if it's possible to do the recording again: “Listen, I'm young, energetic and attractive. Why the hell am I doing this? “

In response, Trump's campaign team mocked Biden's video in a video of its own. It starts out the same way, but after Biden declares that he's “not a young man,” a series of photos emerge of Biden stumbling, tripping, falling flat, falling down the steps, falling off a bike, and extending his hand to an unseen person. The video ends with the usual Trump slogan, “Trump. Make America Great Again!
