President Biden has been warned by top aides and his wife Jill to rest more and be more mindful of his health going into 2024 — while he claims he “feels so much younger” than his 81 years, according to a new report.
The age dynamic has caused tension inside the White House, according to Axios, which reported that aides have been known to roll their eyes at Biden’s insistence that he feels spry.
“He is his own worst enemy when it comes to his schedule,” one ex-Biden adviser told the outlet, which reported in April that aides have trouble booking presidential events at certain times of the day — with the result that Biden’s agenda is dominated by happenings between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.

Both Republican and Democratic voters have expressed concern in surveys this year that Biden, who would be 86 years old at the end of a prospective second term, lacks the mental fitness to perform the job.
“Rest more?” reacted Spectator USA contributing editor Stephen L. Miller on X to the report. “He makes barely two public appearances a week, doesn’t take questions or hold press conferences. He has to wear special shoes and take the baby steps on [Air Force One] and is in Delaware 4 days a week, and they are telling him to rest more.”
“He can’t do the job,” Miller added.
“I’m shocked Biden’s aides think he is doing too much right now and needs to ‘rest more,'” agreed policy analyst Anthony LaMesa. “He’s already skipping summits and trips; rarely interacting with citizens and the press. Biden can’t give 100% to the presidency, let alone his campaign. Time for him to step aside.”
Earlier this year, Biden told a reporter when asked about his age: “I can’t even say the number. It doesn’t — it doesn’t register with me.”
The clumsy commander-in-chief has also stumbled several times bounding up the steps of the presidential aircraft, and his team has employed a physical therapist to help improve his balance and avoid a potentially disastrous fall.
In June, Biden hit the deck at the Air Force Academy’s commencement ceremony after delivering a speech to the graduating cadets — drawing stunned gasps from the crowd.
