How old are the five remaining US presidents?
Following Jimmy Carter’s death at the age of 100, there are five living former or current U.S. presidents. At 82 years old, Joe Biden is the eldest of the group. He’s closely followed by Donald Trump, George W. Bush and Bill Clinton. The trio of 78-year-olds were all born within a three-month span during the summer of 1946. There’s a 15-year gap between them and Barack Obama, the youngest remaining president, who is currently 63 years old. When he entered the office at the age of 46, Clinton was the third youngest president ever – beaten out by Teddy Roosevelt (42) and John F. Kennedy (43). Meanwhile, Biden was the oldest president in history when he was sworn in at the age of 78, taking the title from Trump, who previously held the record after he became president at 70 years old.
