Anxious Democrats sounded off to the Washington Post about their increasing concerns over President Biden's age and viability heading into the 2024 election on Tuesday. One Ohio Democrat put it bluntly: death is "imminent" for octogenarians like Biden.
"He is in a period of his life where passing and death is imminent," Sharon Sweda, the leader of the Democratic Party in Lorain County in Ohio said. She told the newspaper she "often" hears Democratic voters worry about the president's health.
"We are all on a ticking clock. But when you’re at his age or at Trump’s age, that clock is ticking a little faster, and that’s a concern for voters," she admitted.
Another Democratic lawmaker feared the possibility of Biden securing the nomination and then having to drop out of the race due to health problems. If he won re-election, he would be 86 by the end of his second term.
"The worst-case scenario is we get past the nominating process with President Biden as the nominee, and then he’s no longer able to continue on as the nominee," the lawmaker said in the report. "That’s the nightmare scenario for Democrats."
