Prior to the 2020 election, Donald Trump harped on Joe Biden as being too old to handle the role of president. Biden was 77.

For the upcoming election season, Donald Trump is now 77. Does that mean that is now too old himself, or has he changed his mind about the matter? I do not recall Trump admitting to changing his mind about much, so I guess he still goes by that standard. When asked about Biden being 79 in 2023, Trump replied that his opponent was “one of the oldest 79s in history, but by and of itself, he is not an old man.” What?
