The White House press secretary on Monday night laughed off the question of whether Joe Biden had the 'physical and mental stamina' to run for a second term, describing an article at the weekend questioning his fitness as 'malicious'.
The 79-year-old president has insisted he intends to run again in 2024, and would be 82 on inauguration day if he wins.
He has faced a barrage of questions about his advancing years - most recently on Sunday, when multiple Democrat sources told The New York Times they were concerned.
On Saturday, he was asked whether he would visit Saudi Arabia, and replied that he had not yet decided - only to say, 20 seconds later, why he was making the trip.
DON LEMON: "Does the president has the stamina, physically and mentally, do you think to continue on even after 2024?"

Karine Jean-Pierre, the White House spokesperson, gasped in horror when asked by CNN's Don Lemon about Biden's fitness for office after 2024.
'Don, you're asking me this question!' she said, aghast.
'Oh my gosh. He's the president of the United States!'
