Biden, 80, is the country's oldest president ever. According to recent polls, the overwhelming majority of Americans believe he is too old to run again. Pundits have reflected this, from New York Times conservative columnist Ross Douthat to liberals like the Washington Post's David Ignatius and HBO's Bill Maher. The former Democratic mayor of Miami Beach, Philip Levine, was the only one to sign a story citing a dozen leading Democrats who predicted that Biden will fend for Trump in 2024.

Biden, 80, is too old for office, according to the New York Times and Washington Post BOTH, with NYT's op-ed branding Biden, 80, too old for office, sparking the possibility of him dying before retiring like Ruth Bader Ginsburg

Both the New York Times and Washington Post published op-eds on Wednesday, branding 80-year-old President Joe Biden as too old to run for re-election in 2024. It comes as Biden faces an impeachment probe, and new polls indicate that most people regard the president at a much too old age to serve again. Ross Douthat, a liberal op-ed writer for the liberal Times, penned an article titled "2024's Field of Nightmares," a reference to the 1989 film Field of Dreams. Although his initial reservations about Biden came down to run-of-the-mill political differences, Democrats are playing on fire in order to compel the country's oldest president to run again, according to him. David Ignatius wrote a similar column in the Jeff Bezos-owned Washington Post with a more specific headline: "President Biden should not run again in 2024."
