Age just a number of jokes for Biden

President Biden took the stage at the annual White House Correspondents Dinner on Saturday and tried to joke away questions about his age.

Biden spoke before a crowd of nearly 3,000 journalists, celebrities and political insiders at the Hilton in Washington, as hundreds of anti-Israel protesters rallied outside.

The 81-year-old made light of voters’ concerns about electing in his advanced age.

“The 2024 election is in full swing. And yes. Age is an issue. I’m a grown man running against a 6-yearold,” the president quipped about Donald Trump.

“I feel great, I really feel great,” he assured the crowd. “I’m campaigning all over the country. Pennsylvania, Georgia, North Carolina. I’ve always done well in the original 13 colonies.”

Biden also took the offensive against Trump.

“Age is the only thing we only have in common,” he said about himself and Trump, who is 77.

“My vice president actually endorses me,” he teased the former president for not receiving the endorsement of his vice president, Mike Pence.

Before the event, anti-Israel protesters ran amok outside, draping a massive Palestinian flag over the side of the hotel, and shouting at Biden’s motorcade and guests as they headed inside. Caitlyn Jenner was among the guests mobbed by protesters.

Some protesters even stormed the red carpet at the star-studded event, video shows.

As Biden’s motorcade passed by, some demonstrators yelled “Stop the genocide in Gaza!”

They also were seen chanting “F--k Joe Biden!” over and over while beating drums.
