President Biden turned 80 in November and Trump, who is now 76, would turn 80 while in office if he was reelected.She said she was proud to work in Trump’s cabinet — “but as dire of a situation as this is, as much as all the media and everybody wants to talk about the past, we need to leave the status quo in the past. We’ve got work to do. We’ve got to look forward.”
