Michael Douglas claims Biden ‘sharp as a tack’ ahead of fundraiser hosted by Hollywood couple

Published April 22, 2024 11:07am ET



Michael Douglas defended President Joe Biden seeking a second term in office, waiving aside concerns many voters have about the president’s age, ahead of a scheduled fundraiser co-hosted by the actor and his wife, actress Catherine Zeta-Jones, this week.

Douglas, 79, is only a couple of years younger than Biden, and suggested that the president is doing well for his age. He added that Biden’s Cabinet wants to work for him again for the next four years, something he could not say about “the other candidate,” a knock against former President Donald Trump, the presumptive presidential candidate for the Republican Party.
