Nikki Haley says Biden likely to DIE in five years: 2024 hopefuls aging presidents after announcing his candidacy for president
- Nikki Haley predicts Joe Biden will die before he turns 86
- He would be that age at the end of his second term if reelected
- “The idea that he would make it to age 86 is not something that I think is likely,” Haley said, warning that the country could see a President Kamala Harris
Nikki Haley predicted on Wednesday that Joe Biden would die within five years and warned the country would see a President Kamala Harris.
“If you vote for Joe Biden, you really count on a President Harris. Because the idea that he would make it to age 86 doesn’t seem likely to me,” the Republican presidential nominee said in an interview on Fox News.
Biden announced on Tuesday that he would seek four more years in the White House. At 80 years old, he is the oldest president in American history. And if he wins another term, he’d be 86 at the end.
Haley, 51, previously argued that candidates over the age of 75 should undergo a cognitive test. Jill Biden has called that idea “ridiculous.”
Haley has formally announced her bid for the Republican presidential nomination, but is heavily behind Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis (who has not yet formally announced his intentions) in the polls.

Meanwhile, Biden downplayed concerns about his age on Wednesday, saying “it doesn’t register with me.”
Some Democrats have expressed concern about Biden’s age and health and question whether Biden is their best choice as a nominee.
But Biden brushed off a question about his advanced years during a press conference with South Korean President Yoon Sun Yeol.
“As for the age, I can’t even say — I guess how old I am, I can’t even say the number, it doesn’t register me,” he said. He added that he expected voters to “take a good look at it, I would too.” I looked at it before I decided to flee.’
His doctor has cleared him fit to serve, but Biden has shown signs of feeling his years: He sometimes walks with a limp, he has tripped as he climbed the stairs to board Air Force One, and he has multiple verbal blunders made.
But next year he will be seen in public in a way he wasn’t during the 2020 election, when he campaigned from zoom rallies and in rare car rallies due to the dangers of COVID.
The American people will regularly see him on the road, interacting with voters and showing that he is fit to serve.

Republicans, meanwhile, have questioned Biden’s age and his health status as the campaign progresses.
The GOP is also expected to use Biden’s age to question Kamala Harris’ suitability to be commander in chief. She is expected to be a target in the campaign as Republicans ask Americans if they are comfortable with her next in line for president.
And whether or not she turns out to be a political liability — as some Democrats fear — remains to be seen.
