In response to a reporter asking what age is too old to be president, Donald Trump said, “I’m so young. I can’t believe it. I’m the youngest person. I’m a young, vibrant man.” The 72-year-old president was trying to express that he isn’t too old to be president, especially in comparison to Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders, both of whom are running for president. Trump said that the pair are making him look young, and I mean, he’s not wrong. Still, saying “I’m the youngest person” was a pretty hilarious way for a 72-year-old man to describe himself. Obviously, this is very, very untrue. So, here’s a list of celebrities that I consider to be up there in age that are younger than Trump.
