Biden Relegated to Using the Short Stairs to Board Air Force One

'No more big stairs for Joe!'

(Headline USAPresident Joe Biden has been using a shorter staircase to board and debark Air Force One over the past several weeks, likely due to his heightened risk of physical injury from his frequent trips and falls.

Video footage of the president shows Biden taking a short staircase that leads to the undercarriage of the presidential plane rather than the long staircase to the cabin that presidents normally take.

The switch to the shorter staircase seems to have occurred right after his public fall at the Air Force Academy’s graduation in the beginning of June.

The 80-year-old at one point turned to make his way back to his seat and started to motion as if he were going to jog. He then appeared to trip and fell down on the stage.

The next week, Biden began using Air Force One’s shorter staircase:

Even with the shorter staircase, however, Biden still seems to have difficulty moving around. Last week, he appeared to trip coming down the stairs after he landed in Delaware.

Biden’s age and mental acuity have become a rising concern among voters since he was elected in 2021. T

hese concerns have led to suggestions that the president is too senile and old to run the country, with some worrying that Vice President Kamala Harris may soon become the president. 

Even members of Biden’s own political party have voiced concerns about his physical and mental faculties. Alex Thompson, a reporter for Axiosrevealed that “some top Democrats have privately been saying for months that they’re nervous about Biden tripping again on the trail. Today he did.

Even Hillary Clinton acknowledged that “people have every right to consider” Biden’s age for the 2024 campaign.

And, after Biden’s Air Force Academy fall, former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey blasted the Democratic Party for trying to shut out other Democratic presidential options.

“Open the Democrat primaries and debates. This isn’t fair to anyone,” he said.
