Social Media Posted June 1, 2023 Author Share Posted June 1, 2023 US President Joe Biden tripped and fell while handing out diplomas at a graduation ceremony for the US Air Force Academy in Colorado on Thursday. Mr Biden, who is the nation's oldest serving president at 80, was seen being helped up by Air Force officials and walking back to his seat unassisted. The president had been standing for about an hour and half to shake hands with each of the 921 graduating cadets. The White House communications director said "he's fine". "There was a sandbag on stage while he was shaking hands," Ben LaBolt wrote on Twitter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Mickeymaus Posted June 1, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 1, 2023 Obviously he is too old to do this job. There are many videos where he is completely confused. But he doesn't get the message. He wants to be president and the US voters say that he is the best for this job. Unbelievable but true. And then Trump. How many more scandals does he need to create before the US voters start to think?! What a strange country... 5 6 1 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post jerrymahoney Posted June 1, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 1, 2023 (edited) You can actually see the black sandbag in this picture. It was holding down one of the teleprompter screens. Edited June 1, 2023 by jerrymahoney 2 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post SunnyinBangrak Posted June 1, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 1, 2023 Would have been better had he not mocked his opponent for being unsteady on his feet. ""Look at how he steps and look at how I step. Watch how I run up ramps and he stumbles down ramps," Biden joked. "Come on." https://www.foxnews.com/politics/flashback-biden-who-fell-stage-once-mocked-trump-carefully-walking-down-ramp-commencement cringe 1 1 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post SunnyinBangrak Posted June 1, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 1, 2023 Just now, jerrymahoney said: my point was why does Biden need a teleprompter when he says a very basic dozen words if that at a public event. Trump riffed on stage for hours, his monologues were off the top of his head packed with jokes and off the cuff comments- he probably needed some bullet points on a screen to riff around. There is just no comparison whatsoever, although yes the left DID falsely claim without evidence that Trump had dementia although now you would need to be a licenced medical practitioner to make such a statement about biden even though this is the what 3rd or 4th time he fell now? 2 2 2 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JonnyF Posted June 2, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 2, 2023 It's beyond embarrassing now. How can this guy lead the US? Stumbling around, falling down, claiming his son who died of brain cancer died in Iraq. It's ridiculous. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12113639/Biden-raises-eyebrows-claiming-late-son-Beau-passed-away-brain-cancer-died-Iraq.html It's completely undemocratic to have someone like this in a position of power. No wonder the US is in such a mess. 6 2 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But look at the alternatives on the other side of the political divide! A second Biden term will be woeful, but it will at least give the Democrats a chance to sort out some meaningful successors. A second Trump term, would be worse. No meaningful elections by the time he has finished, in fact by no means certain that the United States will still exist! 7 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This sort of thing just does not happen to anybody else. Sarcasm I am guessing. People trip and fall daily, or even just trip but recover. As we all get older it does become an issue, but does not indicate we have lost our mental faculties. Seems he made a good recovery after his minor incident and continued onward finishing out the ceremony. https://rollcall.com/2023/06/01/biden-falls-at-graduation-but-gets-back-up-and-finishes-ceremony/ After being helped up, Biden pointed at an object on the stage and appeared to indicate he tripped on it. A reporter traveling with Biden sent a dispatch indicated the object was a sandbag. The reporter said the president stood until the ceremony ended a few minutes later. ....... Biden is not the first senior U.S. official to take a tumble this year, after Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell tripped and fell at a fundraising event in Washington, D.C. The Kentucky Republican, 81, missed several weeks of Senate work after suffering a concussion and injuring his ribs. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Hanaguma Posted June 2, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 2, 2023 If this were a one-off then let it go. Sadly, it is not. He has fallen/nearly fallen on numerous occasions, the latest in Japan at the G7 meeting. If you take a minute to see his gait when he is walking, it is extremely unsteady. He holds his hands stiff and a bit ahead of his body, as if his balance is perpetually a bit off. He almost teeters rather than walks. Let the poor man retire already and enjoy his grandkids. 5 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't democracy grand? I'm sure there will be multiple more falls to choose from before the campaign ads are finalized. Even when he doesn't fall he looks like he's about to. He reminds me of one of those walking robot toys from the 80's that never worked properly and kept toppling over every 4 or 5 steps. But I can certainly agree that having someone so clearly suffering from the effects of old age in such a position is terrible for Democracy. If Biden and Trump are the best the US has to offer, it's an all time low for American politics. 3 1 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post KhunLA Posted June 2, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 2, 2023 He is 80, and actually surprised he hasn't broken anything, as does tend to have more than a few spills. If he keeps it up, he may want to opt for a set of wheels. That aside, when he goes off script, and can't seem to put his thoughts together, or form proper sentences when talking, or completely confused on the subject he is talking about ... ... yea, he's not fit for office. That's now, and he's running again ???? Surely the can find a better puppet than him for 2024. 3 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
