“Trump, who will be 80 next month, is the oldest person to be elected president.”
DISPUTED
The claim states Trump will be 80 next month and is the oldest person to be elected president. However, Wikipedia and web search results state he was born June 14, 1946, making him 78 at his 2025 inauguration. While Wikipedia notes he became the oldest person to become president upon his second inauguration in 2025, he is 79, not 80, and the 'next month' timing is not supported by his birth date of June 14.
