State Of The Union TV Review: Joe Biden Tackles The Age Issue Head On, Bodyslams Trump & MAGA GOP In Highly Political Speech Kicking Off 2024 Election

“I know I may not look like it, but I’ve been around a while,” the current POTUS joked in his version of Ronald Reagan’s famed 1984 comeback witticism of “I will not make age an issue of this campaign. I am not going to exploit, for political purposes, my opponent’s youth and
