news analysisWhen it comes down to it, a lot of Democrats wish President Biden were not running this fall.
Image Supporters greeted President Biden as his motorcade left the airport in Brownsville, Texas, earlier this week.

Mr. Biden, 81, is just a little older than Mr. Trump, 77, and both have exhibited moments of confusion and memory lapses.
