Biden, 80, is already the oldest president of the United States and is set to face Donald Trump, 76, in the elections next year even though he has not formally announced his candidature for the topmost post.

US President Joe Biden on Thursday, in a speech in Philadelphia highlighting the release of his annual budget proposal, referred to himself as “400” years old and called Donald Trump the “maybe future president.”

“I said, ‘You shouldn’t do that.’ Well, guess what? Now we’re finding out there’s billions of [COVID-19 relief] dollars were stolen.”
