If Joe Biden knows he doesn’t have eight years of public service left in him, he should do the right thing for his party and country and stop trying to serve four. EricLevitz writes
A man who should move up his retirement plans by four years. Photo: Justin Sullivan/Getty Images Joe Biden’s top political priority is to make Joe Biden a one-term president.
According to four people who regularly talk to Biden, all of whom asked for anonymity to discuss internal campaign matters, it is virtually inconceivable that he will run for re-election in 2024, when he would be the first octogenarian president.“If Biden is elected,” a prominent adviser to the campaign said, “he’s going to be 82 years old in four years and he won’t be running for reelection.”
This pitch has its attractions, though its appeal is somewhat contingent upon the identity of Biden’s heir apparent. And the moment he actually names a specific individual, the gambit becomes less broadly appealing. But even if we stipulate that Biden’s plans for an early retirement would mitigate millennial dissatisfaction with his nomination, those plans would still do more to indict his candidacy than enhance it.
