Former President Donald Trump denies repeatedly mixing up the names of former President Barack Obama and current President Joe Biden in his campaign speeches and appearances, despite evidence to the contrary. Trump's gaffes have drawn attention from critics, including Biden's aides, who are trying to highlight Trump's own mistakes as age becomes a central issue in the 2024 election. Trump claims he sarcastically replaces Obama's name with Biden's when talking about the president, but his explanation echoes his attacks on Biden's mental and physical health. Polling shows concerns about the advanced age of both candidates, with more people having issues with Biden's age.
