Joe Biden is ‘doing fine’ after on stage fall

[HARK!]

This time he reportedly tripped over a sandbag that was holding up his teleprompter.

Such important news. NOT

 

[HARK!]

In this clip we can hear that the crowd roars at his fall.

I don't think tripping and falling over the sandbag is the issue - what bothers most is his inability to get up - needed at least two to lift him to his feet.

I think that the bigger issue is the frequency at which he falls. How many times has he fallen (that we know about) since he took the Oval Office?

Does anyone have a count?

I thought Trump's response was very telling:

Former President Trump appeared to commiserate with President Biden over his fall at Thursday’s Air Force Academy commencement, recalling his unsteady walk down a “slippery” ramp at the West Point commencement in 2020.​

​

“Well, I hope he wasn’t hurt,” Trump said during one of several appearances in Iowa on Thursday, after a member of the crowd informed him of the incident to a chorus of cheers.​

Not that I am aware of, but there have been quite a few.

This would be a good place to post all of these incidents; so that we can start counting them. I doubt that we can even count them all; as the media wouldn't be able to report the ones where the media wasn't present. I'm sure that the White House Press Secretary wouldn't report all of his falls.

The Air Force crowd roared as Biden hit the stage without serious injury. It's good to see the love that the military has for their CiC.

It's good to see the concern that his political opponents and their constituents have for our aging President.

Always got to shift the blame ....if it's not the conservative's sandbagging him it's a real sandbag trying to attack him.

 

[Wolseley]

Well, if they'd put the old duffer in a wheelchair and park him in a nice, quiet nursing home somewhere, he'd probably be a lot safer.

And so would we.

My hypothesis is that any alleged sandbag was a innocent bystander.

I'm sure he could have gotten up just find but the Secret Service is on continuous alert to assist their protectees.

The video is pretty clear it was a sandbag at the foot of the teleprompter.

I'm happy to hear he is doing ok. At his age, falls are dangerous.

Well, if anybody needs protection, it's definitely him, LOL.

I watched it more than once; and I can't see where his foot made contact with a sandbag. I'm glad that the WH Press Secretary has declared it as such; so that any of Biden's constituents might have a more difficult time of blaming this on Trump.

From the insurrectionists still on the Lam? Oh, no.

It's good to see that the military can get behind our President and support him. Now if some could just get in front of him; maybe he wouldn't fall over so much.

 

[Wolseley]

From the insurrectionists still on the Lam? Oh, no.

Nah. He just needs a lot of supervision, so he doesn't wander off somewhere, get lost, and forget who he is or what he's doing there. Poor old fella.
