President Joe Biden tripped three times while ascending a staircase to board Air Force One on Friday, at one point slamming his left knee into the metal structure and nearly ending up all fours.
Biden made the staircase stumble while boarding the presidential plane to depart for Atlanta from Joint Base Andrews in Maryland.
Video of the fall showed Biden holding on to the railing of the staircase as he began walking up.
But about halfway up, the president could be seen losing his footing before stumbling three times, finally ending up on his left knee while still clasping the railing with his right hand.
He quickly got back up on his feet and ascended the rest of the staircase before saluting the U.S. Marines who flew him by helicopter from the White House to the airport.
Falls are a leading cause of injury in the United States. However, Biden does not appear to have sustained any injuries in the fall, and White House spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre told reporters onboard Air Force One that he’s “doing 100% fine.”

The Friday fall was not Biden’s first since winning the 2020 election.
The 78-year-old president fractured his right foot in late November while playing with his dog.

It sure is funny, that in September, 2020, Joe the Criminal shot off his big mouth, about Trump being cautious, while going down a ramp. Biden immediately shot off his mouth, that he (Biden) runs up steps, in criticizing Trump being cautious. One thing I love, is to see people eat there own bull and Joe the Criminal just ate his own bull. Joe, you are a piece of work. Like I have stated in previous columns, Biden, within a year and a half, will no longer be President, because of his age, he will either be meeting his maker or he will no longer be President, because of his dementia or alzheimers. All the botox that went into his face, all the money he, his son Hunter and his two brothers obtained criminally, cannot stop father time!!!!
IF trump had stumbled like that, the MEDIA would have been all over him.
Media hypocrites would have redoubled their constant demand that Trump provide proof of medical fitness. Joe is a blithering idiot off the teleprompter but media reports his rare speeches as “the greatest ever”. What disgusting two-faced liars.
I wonder if he “re-injured” his foot and has to wear the foot brace… you know the one that covered up the ankle tether earlier.
I see everybody is rushing to help him …. not !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is this even worth putting on the news? He is a traitor and an idiot , needs to go to jail with the rest of those traitors at the White house he stole the election he is a traitor!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is this even worth putting on the news?
Only communist liberals advocate for censorship of the news. MSM didn’t cover it as news. They covered it up instead. You must be very happy with them, James.
To the real media (what little is left) yes it is.. TO the leftist propaganda dept, no it’s not.
Have a nice Trip,,,,see you in the fall,,,,,,,elections. Sometimes one picture IS worth a thousand words.
I imagine it is easy to trip…I’ve heard that it is especially true going up those plane stairs. It happens. What is ridiculous is that when Trump stumbled the press was all over it for days and kept highlighting how he was too old to be President. Now Biden trips three times at one climb and the news is none existent and what is said is that it is no big deal. The hypocrisy is astounding.
There’s a video of Camel pushing needles into a Uncle Joe Doll as he climbs the stairs…just saying.
She just sits back and says to herself “47 days left and I’ll be the big shot, if not sooner.”
I predict MUCH sooner.
What this athletic prowess of Joe the worthless demonstrates is, when he comes for your guns, hide them upstairs .
IT won’t be him coming for them though. IT will be the ATF/FBI/DOJ and such, sending armed swat teams.
Stumbling Bumbling Quid Pro Joe
What I find most interesting is not one single person at the bottom made any effort (or showed any concern) to help Quid Pro Joe.
True, that. Can you imagine all the Secret Service personnel just standing by, watching him stumble? And no one rushes to support him? The president of the USA? Come on, we’re not as stupid as you think we are. This was a staged event.
MAYBE they were ordered NOT to…
That’s what I’m saying; a staged event, setting things up for the real president, Kamala Harris, aka Barack Obama.
The NY Post reports on the double standard on how comedians made a meal out of President Ford’s fall: “President Biden’s wince-inducing series of stumbles while boarding Air Force One on Friday calls to mind Gerald Ford’s 1975 fall on the same stairs — a minor tumble that forever tarred him as a clumsy oaf.
Chevy Chase pilloried Ford in a series of ruthless and hilarious “Saturday Night Live” skits — even though the object of his ridicule was just 62 years old, and an ex-University of Michigan football star who avidly skied and golfed.
But Ford’s caught-on-camera stumble down the rain-slicked steps of Air Force One in Austria — plus a Biden-esque trip while climbing up the same set of stairs in Michigan soon afterward — was all Chase needed to crown Ford the Klutz-in-Chief.
As a bumbling Ford, Chase’s ham-handed handling of the Resolute Desk telephone and his lurching pratfalls continued week after week”.
Don’t hold your breath to see anyone on SNL make fun of Biden.
The wind blew him over?
Really?
That excuse is even more damaging than admitting he fell down. I’m 84 with a walker frame and it would take more than a wind to knock me down.
I suppose some reefer hoofing staff member working for Joe should get canned for letting his boss chew gum while endeavoring to walk at the same time.
