Putin has got to still be laughing. While speaking at an Air Force Academy commencement ceremony in Colorado on Thursday, President Biden supposedly tripped over a sandbag left on the stage and engaged in a Ridiculousness-level faceplant. Oddly, there is no sand bag on the video. Noticeably fumbling his words, his speech oddly foreshadowed the frightening fall by the 80-year-old man.
From the ‘what else are they going to say file’, White House communications director Ben LaBolt — who issued a statement via Twitter shortly after the fall — said Biden is fine, having suffered no immediate injury as a result of the embarrassing incident.
No worries, the mainstream media was out in force ready to gaslight, and trying to defend and deflect.
Video and images of the fall immediately spread across Twitter with several users either mocking media coverage compared to former President Donald Trump or attacking the scene as cruel and “reckless.”
RedState senior editor Brandon Morse commented, “Yeah, but at least he didn’t make his way slowly down a ramp.”
“When Trump walked cautiously down a slick ramp at a military graduation, it sparked tons of coverage about his health. Something tells me you won’t find similar coverage making the rounds among legacy media this time,” Heritage Foundation social media manager Christian Julio Lasval remarked.
When Biden returned to the White House on Marine One, he reportedly bonked his head on the frame of the helicopter.
Reporter Noah Robertson, who works for the Christian Science Monitor, reported:
[Biden] bumped his head on the doorframe while exiting the helicopter but otherwise appeared spry, wearing a blue suit with a matching tie and trademark aviators. Smiling, waving, and gingerly approaching the pool, he joked “I got sandbagged” in reference to the fall earlier today. Then he skipped once, holding his smile, and kept walking.
Last month, a new ABC News/Washington Post poll found that a majority of Americans believe Biden no longer possesses the physical or mental capabilities required of the president.
According to the Newsweek story titled “Joe Biden’s Fall Raises Questions About the Secret Service” by Aleks Phillips on 2 June 2023, it is really the fault of the Secret Service that the sandbag was even there in the first place, so they are responsible for Joe falling, not Joe, and that raises the question of if the Secret Service has to guide Joe around, and clear his path for him, and tell him to watch his steps, and where to place his feet, or not place his feet, who really is the president:
“The fall happened because the Secret Service left a sandbag obstructing the path he would have to take,” Joyce Vance, a former U.S. Attorney in Alabama, wrote.
“What’s up with the Secret Service?”
“Small errors on their part have become all too common.”
“The Secret Service is most responsible for this,” Ed Krassenstein, a social media personality, tweeted.
“They should have made sure there wasn’t anything in his way.”
He added: “I would have likely tripped, you would have likely tripped and most people would have likely tripped in this situation too.”

No, Ed, sorry, dude, but most of us would have seen the sandbag and walked around it.
What idiots these Democrats Biden apologists really are!
Next thing we know, Joe will have to be preceded everywhere he goes by a squad of Secret Service agents with push brooms sweeping Joe’s path clear of anything and everything that could trip Joe up, including space dust, fairy dust, and dandelion fluff, plus the odd sandbag here or there.
When they’re talking of “Sandbag” are they talking about Hillary?
