It was not immediately clear why the sedan smashed into an SUV that was part of the motorcade. The driver was surrounded by agents who had their guns drawn.

A sedan smacked into a Secret Service vehicle that was part of President Joe Biden’s motorcade in Delaware on Sunday night.

Following the crash, U.S. Secret Service agents whisked Biden into a vehicle.

Agents quickly surrounded the sedan with guns drawn and aimed at its driver, who had his hands up. The cause of the crash was not immediately clear.

Special Agent Steve Kopek, a Secret Service spokesperson, said the vehicle that struck was securing Biden’s motorcade route.

    You don’t always have to have the latest and greatest.

    That’s why we have Biden

          Very odd rule. I just passed 35 recently and i feel like I’m slowly dying already. Feels like a struggle to learn new things

          Can one run for president “early” if one will be old enough during election/potential presidency?

            In theory, you just have to be 35 to be President.

            If she ran, she would turn 35 a month before election day and would be 35+3 months when sworn in.

            The youngest elected US President to date was JFK, who was 43.

            Theodore Roosevelt was 42 when he assumed office after McKinley was assassinated.
