After a series of humiliating falls at the start of his term in office, 80-year-old President Joe Biden has been relegated to the small stairs to enter and exit Air Force One.
Reports from inside the White House have described staffers as “terrified” Biden will fall again, like he did at the Air Force Academy… and on a diplomatic trip to India… and while riding a bike.
In addition to taking the small stairs, the elderly Biden has reportedly started a specific exercise plan with the White House doctors to improve his balance, and has started wearing tennis shoes to avoid slipping.
It has helped the elderly politician… some.
But critics noted that Biden still slipped and nearly tumbled down the easier-to-manage Air Force One stairs on Tuesday.
