President Joe Biden will on Monday spend his 81st birthday pardoning turkeys at the White House as a Thanksgiving tradition before traveling to the Atlantic island of Nantucket on Tuesday with his family.
But his enjoyment of the day may be tarnished by renewed attacks from critics who think he is too elderly to hold office.
The Democrat is the oldest person ever to be president and his tenure has long been marred by claims he lacks the mental fitness for the position. Detractors have pointed to his verbal gaffes and physical missteps, such as stumbling on the steps of Air Force One as evidence for his incapability.
