President Donald Trump’s birthday is June 14, the same day as a military parade in Washington D.C. celebrating the U.S. Army’s 250th birthday.

Trump, who is the oldest person to take the presidency, will turn 79 on Saturday. He took the age record from his predecessor, former President Joe Biden, who was also 78 when he assumed the office in 2021.

Trump, who was born in 1946 in New York City, was 70 years old at the start of his first term in 2017, still ranking among the oldest presidents ever to hold office.

Here’s how Trump ranks among the oldest presidents.

Protests, Pope’s celebration also scheduled on Trump’s birthday

People in cities across the country are expected to protest Trump on his birthday.

“I think we will see the largest peaceful single day protests that this country has seen certainly since the first Trump term,” Indivisible cofounder Ezra Levin, one of the organizers of “No Kings Day,” previously told USA TODAY.

Nearly 2,000 protests and rallies are expected on June 14 to voice rejections of what organizers point to as overreach and abuse by the Trump administration.

Also on Saturday, Pope Leo XIV is set to be celebrated in his North American hometown of Chicago.

Although he is not expected to attend the celebration, The Archdiocese of Chicago said that a video message from the Pope is set to emanate from Rate Field – the home of the Chicago White Sox.
