Former US President Donald Trump asserts that age does not bar American leader Joe Biden from carrying out the responsibilities of the office, yet contends that Biden’s performance reveals a level of incompetence that undermines effective governance. This perspective was reported by TASS, the Russian news agency known for its coverage of American political discourse. In Trump’s view, the administration under Biden has reduced the country’s stature on the world stage, leaving the United States appearing diminished and less capable than in recent years. He argues that the administration’s decisions and policies have contributed to a less confident national image and a weaker strategic posture. The claim centers on the claim that while age is not a barrier to leadership in principle, Biden’s demonstrated leadership quality, decision-making, and administrative stamina do not meet the standards Trump expects for the nation’s highest office.
