Ivana Trump once remarked, “Donald hates his birthdays,” reflecting on her ex-husband’s feelings towards celebrating another year of life. The recent birthday celebration seemed to be no different for him, as he expressed his disdain for the occasion during a rally in Las Vegas. At 78, he is vying for another term in office, aiming to become the oldest president in American history, surpassing the current 81-year-old occupant of the Oval Office.
Both candidates on the campaign trail try to downplay their age while highlighting the other’s shortcomings. The Trump campaign released edited videos of Biden to portray him as unfit for office, while the Biden campaign criticized Trump for his behavior, including falling asleep during his own trial.
In the past, Trump enjoyed extravagant birthday parties, hosting lavish events with celebrities and dignitaries in attendance. However, his 78th birthday celebration is a more low-key affair, organized by a group of supporters at the Palm Beach County Convention Center.
Despite the challenges and controversies surrounding his presidency, Trump finds solace among his loyal supporters. He recently shared a personal anecdote with Club 47, a group of devoted followers, recounting a significant decision he made during his time in office.
As he reflects on his age and mortality, Trump is met with both celebration and introspection from those around him. Republican lawmakers and supporters honor him with serenades and cakes, symbolizing his impact on the political landscape.
During a rally in Las Vegas, Trump shared a rare moment of vulnerability, contemplating his longevity and the legacy he hopes to leave behind. Despite his polarizing persona, he acknowledges the importance of family and happiness in the twilight of his political career.
