I've never seen anyone trip on three consecutive steps.

What is even scarier is that people think the big guy could be knocked off his feet by a puff of wind...

I fully expect this thread to be hijacked by what-aboutism. What about all the mean comments of Trump shuffling slowly down the ramp? They were not right either and also bullying too.

Two wrongs do not make a right. Please be the more mature person. Jesting at other people's pain is childish behavior and does not belong in a mature political discussion. Grow up.
The jokes would be a million fold worse if Trump had fallen like China Joe and everybody knows it. It's obvious that Joe has dementia and it is cruel to this elderly man to have propped him up and elect him when he is too feeble to do the job. Again, the bullying of Trump was a million fold worse....were you starting threads daily then objecting to the cruel and incessant bullying of Trump? I'm taking a wild guess and saying it's no.

Doesn't matter how old you are, everybody trips and falls at some point. This is not at all an indication of anything other than Joe Biden is a human being just like the rest of us.
Have you ever tripped and fallen, got up and tripped and fell and then got up and tripped and fell again? I haven't. Two years ago, I was climbing over a thousand steps daily from my apartment in Baku, Azerbaijan to work and back during rainstorms, windstorms, sometimes after having had a few drinks for almost a year and I don't think I ever slipped once and I'm over 60 yoa.

I think the difference is he didn't get hurt. If he has then I'd be right there with you. I've gone ass over tea kettle plenty of times and laugh at myself when I do.

I dont find it the least bit amusing that Biden fell. I find it sad that it happened so many times. I detest Biden, but damn can't someone give him a hand?

Yes, I found it odd that no one gave him a hand. Where was Dr. Jill?

When was the last time you tripped 3 times going up the stairs?

What a let down this thread is. Here, I thought there'd be four pages of brand new "Biden fall down" jokes to share with the gals at work.

Sorry! Us creative folks fled to higher ground to work on real issues that deserve attention.

It says more about the speaker then topic when a person mocks, sneers, and takes delight in anothers' human mishaps.

Humility - try it . I'll be busy practicing tolerance til ya'll catch up
