Joe Biden's age and mental fitness have become a key issue for the Democratic Party after his 2024 election loss to Donald Trump. A new book alleges White House aides concealed Biden's decline, prompting discussion among potential 2028 Democratic candidates about his fitness for office and reelection decision. While some Democrats, like Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker, deny observing any decline, others, including Senator Chris Murphy, acknowledge Biden's cognitive decline. The controversy highlights the internal party divisions and the impact of Biden's performance on the party's future prospects. Republicans, meanwhile, are using Biden's image to attack Democrats, hoping to capitalize on voter dissatisfaction.
