Actually, yeah.
But why does that matter? Sure, Biden is old, but his first presidential.primary isn't ancient history, we don't have to have actually seen it to know about it.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Biden_1988_presidential_campaign
The only speaking difficulty Biden has had up till the last decade, has been when media press him on a challenge, he gets pissed and starts insulting them. The deathblow to the 88 campaign was when his speech plagiarism lead to reporters finding out he cheated in school and lied about being active in the civil rights movement.
He might have survived that, but he started insulting reporters when they asked. A pissed off presidential candidate yelling about how much better he is than the worker man sells a lot of newspapers and it's a vicious cycle that's hard to get out
He was still doing it last campaign, he'll do it next time.
No, he won't do it this time because he isn't going to campaign with the public. The instances he got angry with the public were pretty early in the primaries mostly. They won't let that happen this time. It will be even smaller audiences than last run (heavily vetted people) or zoom speeches from the basement.
