Joe Biden is ‘doing fine’ after on stage fall

[DaisyDay]

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.​

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.

Donald would have needed a lot more than just two to hoist his large derriere self up
(Edited because some people object to the characterization of only his rear being large rather than his whole self.)

Huh, your reprimand smacks of hypocrisy. You all unleashed a barrage of comments deriding Biden as senile and incompetent did you not? Is that okay?

I apologize for noting that Donald is large (he is remarkable for having grown an inch or two during his presidency according to his doctor's health letter). He is larger than most people - 6'3" - do you deny that? Is that a bad thing to you? Do you think that a mere two men could set him on his feet again?

How is fat shaming the equivalent of competency?

I didn't call him fat - that was you, just now. He is large, some would say larger than life! 6'3" (self-recorded, ) and over 200 lbs is not average or small, wouldn't you agree? He is large.

You all are trying to age-shame which is not admirable thing to do. He is old, true, but Donald is not that far behind. And Biden is far more competent at governing that Donald ever was.

I love the way you cut right to the heart of a matter; but perhaps Biden can stand on his own two feet. Maybe the sand man came; and he was just taking another nap.

his large derriere

Back peddling won't help your argument anymore than it would keep Biden from falling off his bicycle

His derriere is not . 6'3"; nor is it over 200 lbs.

Now that we've gone down this bunny hole; can we get back on topic?

It doesn't look like his security give him a chance to get up on his own. They were pretty quick. And would have done the same for other presidents.

Post #4 inferred Biden is feeble or weak, and had a difficult time getting up on his own.

Post #21 implied trump is too large or overweight, and would have a difficult time getting up on his own

Competency is not even a part of the comparison, unless old and weak means incompetence, which it does not.

For being incompetent, Biden sure is mopping the floor with the republicans regarding his agenda.

I'm not back pedaling. Can you show where I called Donald fat? No, you cannot because I did not. His derriere is in keeping with the rest of his 6'3" over 200 lb (being real nice here) self.

You are correct that his derriere is not 6'3" and over 200 lbs. How wide would you say it is?

Now that we've gone down this bunny hole; can we get back on topic?

This is a constant tactic of yours, to hit, then run and hide behind "the topic" and not allow anyone to answer your attack on them. We'll be back on topic of Biden's fall as soon as you stop making off-topic remarks that need answering.

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

No, we hear the crowd fall silent after his fall.

Ageism is also a shaming tactic. Some have no shame when shaming others....

I watched and listened carefully. In the beginning there was applause and cheering. At Biden's falling it turned into a roar. Then, after the roar, the crowd began quieting gown as Biden was being assisted to his feet.

If it's "nuff said..." why do you keep saying more?

Question: do you think a mere two men could lift him up?

Yeah, they were cheering at the conclusion of the ceremony. It takes a moment to process what just happened, which happened quickly, and when the crowd did, they fell silent.

Your interpretation seems more like a wish than reality; it reflects your way of thinking.

There is no shame in age, anymore than there is shame in adverse effects of aging, hindering someone from continuing to be effective with their job. Are you suggesting that it is shameful to collect S.S. benefits?

I just set the facts straight. You can interpret the facts as you wish; but the facts remain.

That is the reality.

Nobody said there is shame in age. What was said was "Maybe the sand man came; and he was just taking another nap."

Another nap, like old people do.

Ageism.

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

Every human alive is aging every day. Why would we call the President 'aging', except as an indication he is old.

More ageism.
