President Biden Falls On Stage At Air Force Academy Graduation

 

Daily Mail: 'I got sandbagged!': Biden laughs off embarrassing fall at Air Force Academy commencement ceremony - the fourth public tumble of 80-year-old's presidency - as he arrives safely back at White House 

* The fall came while Biden was handing diplomas to cadets at USAF academy 

* Comes weeks after he stumbled walking down stairs at shrine in Japan 

* The White House blamed a sandbag on the stage and said the president was fine 

President Joe Biden laughed off his embarrassing fall at the Air Force Academy commencement ceremony as he arrived safely back at the White House on Thursday. 

'I got sandbagged,' he joked to reporters following the tumble, after the White House insisted that he was OK. 

But as he got off the plane Thursday evening, the 80-year-old commander-in-chief was again seen bumping his head on the doorframe.

WNU Editor: This is not the first time the President has fallen .... It happened again! 80-year-old Biden's latest fall on stage in Colorado is another in a string of battles the oldest president in history has had with balance - just as he begins his SECOND White House run (Daily Mail). I am willing to bet that he has fallen a few times behind closed doors. 

 I have mentioned it before. He is now at the stage of his cognitive decline where he will be needing a cane for support.

Wise voters worry less about falls in the elderly if they are ok--perhaps should use a cane--than the key issue: mental fitness.

After all, FDR never fell with his disability. He simply sat most of the time.

Former President Donald Trump said Thursday that he previously reached out to Fox News host Sean Hannity to suggest he stop joking about President Biden’s cognitive abilities.

Trump participated in a town hall event with Hannity in Iowa, where the two spoke at length about Biden’s fall earlier in the day at the Air Force Academy commencement ceremony.

Trump said it was a “bad fall,” but would not go farther. Hannity noted that Trump has been reluctant to attack Biden over his physical and mental acuity, though the Fox host said he has no issues doing so himself.

“I asked Sean not to joke about it,” Trump said. “I said, ‘Honestly, I don’t think it looks good for you or for anybody to joke about it.'”

“You can speak about it if you want, but I don’t think you should joke about it,” Trump added.

Blamed the sand bag???

That's a joke right?

I mean, was the SANDBAG controlling Joe at that time? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
And if it was because the sand bag "was there" why did not any one else trip over it?

Still no photos of this elusive sand bag. I doubt it was there.

Two small black sandbags had been onstage supporting the teleprompter used by Biden and other speakers at the graduation.
