Biden falls at U.S. Air Force Academy graduation ceremony

SMH. Isn’t this becoming an annual tradition at this point. Lawd the cunts will have a field day with this.

Isn’t the first president to fall and won’t be the last. As long as he didn’t break a hip.

He’s worse than Gerald Ford.

Wow — the fascists will love this. Not just because a democrat president embarrassed himself, but also because an elderly, infirm person “of no use to society” fell down and needed aid to get back on their feet.

r6, you are correct, sir!

Biden could be a head in a Fururama jar, and he would STILL make better decisions than ALL or ANY Republican.

Amateur

Cut to Kamala rubbing her hands together.

It has also been reported that Biden is fine.

Read his lips...

Actually for someone his age to fall and not break a hip, well, that actually shows he’s in pretty good health. A friend of mine fell when he was 66 and broke his hip.

Nice deflection, R9 and R12, but that's no consolation, here and now.

Hah Doris, I like how they labeled that video as Highest Quality - Restored.

R14, see my post at r13.

I said this was going to happen. Supporting Biden is going to cost us the White House. Wait and See. He is a trillion years old. Kamala is going to lose to ANYone the GOP puts up. Pete is a WIMP...We need a better candidate on the Dem ticket. I will NOT vote for Biden in the primary.

Yikes. 😬

Good lord, r16, get a grip. Even Obama tripped. It’s not like Biden led an insurrection—now that should disqualify him.

The dementia, the Ukraine, the Facebook

Res ipsa loquitur

What the doctor told me about my mother when she experienced the large mental and physical decline that Biden has also, is that it is only going to get worse, and it did. People who are so blinded by their wishful thinking can’t accept that Biden is not going to get better and is not even going to stay the same. This is going to happen, that he will get worse and not slowly. We’re going to see more of these episodes in the coming year, depending how well the handlers can keep Biden from public view.

[quote]I will NOT vote for Biden in the primary.

Lol, oh gurl, *that'll* show us, r16!

So by MAGAT logic:

A President who trips over a sandbag should not be President any more, but a former (I refuse to call that orange turd President) "occupant of the White House" incites a treasonous and seditionist insurrection, and MAGATS want him to have "four more years!"

They can go fuck themselves.

I'll take an infirm but competent President over a traitorous dictator PIG any day of the week.

A cooperative media allowed them to develop that into a science in 2020. Won't be that easy next time.

I've said it once and I'll say it again: If FDR, with all of his maladies, could lead us through the Great Depression and all but the last month of the most devastating war the world has even known, Biden can lead us now.

And FDR could run rings around the current crop of Republican dirtball scumbags running for President, including morbidly obese pig fucker Trump and that one with the child bearing hips, Rhonda Santis, with or without her white go-go boots.

r25...he won.

What's going on is that Biden hasn't slowed down to accommodate his 80 years, that's all. I see it all the time in old people who are active. The think they have the reflexes of a young person.

Joe's fine, he sends his love.

He’s going to be sore as hell tomorrow.

[quote]What the doctor told me about my mother when she experienced the large mental and physical decline that Biden has also, is that it is only going to get worse, and it did.

Funny, his "large mental and physical decline" didn't prevent him from outfoxing Republicans on the debt ceiling.

Who cares if he fell.

As long as he wasn't injured.

I mean FDR couldn't even walk and he was a better president than anyone else in the 20th century.

Also, what R30 said.

Sorry he fell but why does he always have to be skipping and trotting like he is a 16 yr old boy??? Just walk dude ! Ffs!

[quote]Nice deflection, [R9] and [R12], but that's no consolation, here and now.

*This* causes you to need consolation, r14? Are you that fragile a snowflake?

FDR was as old as this guy?

[quote] I've said it once and I'll say it again: If FDR, with all of his maladies, could lead us through the Great Depression and all but the last month of the most devastating war the world has even known, Biden can lead us now.

Unlike Biden and his age-related decline in mental acuity, there was nothing wrong with FDR’s brain. His “malady” was physical.

Instead of "falls" substitute "tripped" on a sandbag, which was black, same color as floor. So what.

Biden is OLD. He is very fit for his age, but old. His administration has accomplished much in the face of gop obstruction. I will vote for him again.

R26, FDR had all his marbles. He just needed a seat. Biden is the oldest president we’ve ever had. Sadly, I don’t see anyone who could challenge and win the White House. The Right and the Left have shit choices. In a country as big as the US, Trump and Biden are the best they can find?! Come on now. I’ll vote Democrat in the election, but it will be a holding my nose type deal or a not a Republican-type vote. I just wish we had better choices and don’t tell me Marianne or Robert Kennedy. Barf.

Not a good look. This will end in tears. Ours.

R35, There is no decline in his mental acuity. Especially judging by how this administration ration has performed. So you’re wrong.

[quote]Unlike Biden and his age-related decline in mental acuity, there was nothing wrong with FDR’s brain. His “malady” was physical.

There is zero evidence showing that Biden has had any decline in mental acuity. None. Speaking as someone who has a mother with advanced dementia, Biden does not show ANY signs of dementia either.

You also cannot know whether or not there was anything wrong with FDR's brain. All you have to go on are old newsreels and recordings of fireside chats.

There’s one troll on here. This is why they made the block function. Toodles.

I'm in my 30s and landed on my arse walking down a step the other day

Just last weekend at Mar-a-Lago, Mango Mussolini fell forward and went over the head and rolled off the back of Lady Lindzebelle. Mango Mussolini received a bruised right shoulder and scratched his wee wee on his open zipper; and Lady Lindzebelle got a sore back and torn skirt, had to cancel her Fox interview for the evening. Otherwise, they are fine and move about with some stiffness with the residual soreness.

[quote]What the doctor told me about my mother when she experienced the large mental and physical decline that Biden has also

Sure, Jan

"Unlike Biden and his age-related decline in mental acuity"

Could we see a report from a reputable doctor as to this alldeged decline in mental acuity, R35, or we just supposed to accept your "pulled from out of my prolapsed asshole" armchair diagnosis?

R34, FDR died at 63.

R37, He died of a cerebral hemorrhage, so he probably had high blood pressure/hypertension.

Biden has a stutter, a stammer that people mistake for some type of mental lapse. But if you pay attention to what he’s accomplished, you’d see it’s quite the opposite. As the Republican Party is systematically trying to dismantle LGBTQ rights and destroy democracy, just who do the Biden haters plan on voting for?

Biden s ll better that the orange idiot that America voted out.

There are already gifs.

Yes, r50, I'm sure there are.

Coincidence that Trump was giving a speech at that exact moment?

Still waiting for that authoratative medical report, R35.

I was one of the ones who brought up FDR - and yes I know how old he was when he was president - because some posters are equating mobility with mental acuity as if they're connected.

The fact is, a fallen Biden can outsmart any conservative congressman half his age, the debt ceiling deal being the latest example.

I am caregiver for my father with dementia . Sadly, this is exactly what President Biden has. I am not saying this to disparage . I

Having a huge dick can put you off balance sometimes. It happens. You just have to remember to roll your gait before your cock's heft pulls you too far forward and keep from tipping over.

R55 suddenly stopped posting - because of dementia.

He turns and appears to limp for a split second, as if he has a cramp- then goes down.

Deep Vein Thrombosis?

I think you mean THE dementia.

Yes, Biden is so demented that he outfoxed McCarthy in the debt ceiling negotiations. The same demented Biden whom McCarthy called “smart.”

Repubs are pissed he done the deal

The "Biden has Dementia" posters are so tired. Zero evidence of it. ZERO. They can't bring it, no one can bring it.

I'm accepting we'll have DeSantis in office come 2025.

This is really the best the Dems can do?

Two years to GTFO of this shithole.

Walking and falling (Biden Remix)

The White House is saying Biden tripped over a sandbag.

R65 . . .

Bless your heart, r63. This is DL, you need to up your game here.

Why was there a sandbag there I wonder.

I feel bad for him.

Biden really owned the MAGA congress at the last SOTU-- he may have a speech issue but he masterfully trolled all those fuckers when they tried to show their asses.

I can't believe people still take Trump seriously.

Well he tripped over a fucking sandbag, not like he just lost his balance and fell. I'm 45 and tripped over an old sunflower stump in my flowerbed. I thought I would be able to make a recovery without actually falling down, but I didn't, down I went with my giant bag of mulch in my arms.

R68, Two sandbags were holding down the legs of the teleprompter.

[quote] The White House is saying Biden tripped over a sandbag.

Also the sandbag was wearing a MAGA cap and poured bleach on Biden

Biden is too old

President Biden! we love you!! GET UP!!!

R67 What are you talking about? You mean the tired DL-Dem:

MAGAT Trumptard! FASCIST!

All your name calling and getting yourself worked up into a tizzy isn't doing anything to improve the chances of a Dem in the office come January 2025.

But, do insist on YOUR GAME.

The worst was when George Bush threw up at the Japanese state dinner. Nothing will ever beat that moment of pride.

(I felt bad for the guy, he tried to power through and it's pretty much a worst nightmare scenario)

Weebles wobble

[quote]I am caregiver for my father with dementia . Sadly, this is exactly what President Biden has.

If your father has "what Biden has," you need to seek a second opinion, because it ain't dementia.

R81 I meant to echo them. I should have referred to them.

I keep hoping Trump will walk on stage, his pants fall down around his ankles, he trips, exposes his diaper, breaks a hip, and he can’t stand up. Complete humiliation.

Agree it’s good Joe did not break a hip.

Shit happens. I’m not 80 but I tripped in the garden over a landscape rock. The only thing I hurt was my pride.

Show me the sandbag.

No.

Doesn’t every 80 year old have at least a touch of dementia?

An ophthalmologist once told me that everyone over 40 requires glasses, whether they think they need them or not.

It comes with the territory.

Because dementia= needing glasses!

Had it been trump, it would be like handling a beached whale.

The cutoff age for being in office for every government branch needs to be 65. All government employees should be forced to retire from their government job at 65. If they want to continue working, they can work in the private sector.

We prefer America's elders to work much longer than 70 years old R91 and we're doing everything we can to bring our preferences to law.

Isn’t official retirement age now 67, R91? But I agree, we shouldn’t have 85 year olds running our country.

[quote]The book, “Lucky: How Joe Biden Barely Won the Presidency,’’ by Jonathan Allen, a senior political analyst for NBC News, and Amie Parnes, a senior correspondent with The Hill, says Obama refused to support Biden because he feared he was a “tragicomic caricature of an aging politician having his last hurrah.”

Considering what Joe has already accomplished, PBO was wrong.

[quote]Isn’t official retirement age now 67, [R91]?

I think so, r93. Call it a perk of working for the government. You get to retire two years earlier than non-government employees. And you can still keep the purchasing power benefit. That would incentivize more people to work for the government to replace the olds.

“ Considering what Joe has already accomplished, ”

He wasn’t the other guy. It’s low hanging fruit. Fuck both of them.

Do you need attention, r97...is that what you need? Maybe a nap?

To be fair, I'm 56 and fall down. Or certainly stumble. If I stand up to fast I get lightheaded. At his age? Good Lord. He's doing great. He's an old man, people. That doesn't mean he can't lead. But we cannot flip out if he stumbles. He's lucky he didn't break a hip.

[quote]But we cannot flip out if he stumbles.

*We* aren't flipping out, r99...the trolls are.

The world stopped to consider if Biden is fit to lead when he stumbled today.

Who the hell cares. He's awesome. Prop him up and let's carry on. His peeps do all the strategy. We just need him sitting in his big chair and keeping calm.

Trump and Putin both fell, but their loaded diapers cushioned the blow.

[quote]Who the hell cares. [bold]He's awesome.[/bold]

Abuse victims tend to view the bare minimum of human decency as grand gestures of love and kindness. In other words, they exaggerate basic shit after experiencing trauma. When their new person fucks up, as long as the fuck up doesn't hurt them as badly as their abusive ex, they overlook it. As a result, they become doormats with lowered expectations for relationships.

I feel like this is what a lot of Americans have turned into after 4 years of Trump. Just willing to accept anything as long as it's not Trump. Never mind the fact that "anyone but Trump" isn't exactly a tall order.

Biden made other news with his speech. He claimed again that he was appointed to the Naval Academy. Last year, he claimed he was appointed in 1965, even though that was the year he graduated from college, not high school. This time he claimed he was appointed along with a certain classmate, but it appears the classmate did not attend the Academy. When he was VP, Biden's story was that he was "considered" for the Academy, not appointed. It will be interesting to see how the story will change again next year.

[quote]The world stopped to consider if Biden is fit to lead when he stumbled today.

Ooooh, r101...and what did they decide?

What's really shocking is that he can still kick the Republican Party's ass while tripping over a sandbag.

It’s really astonishing. Biden is doing a good job and he trips—over something—and all of a sudden he’s incompetent? That’s the argument of a troll. Oh and by the way…

Yep. Now off to Joe to sign.

This country is, again, considering that same person to be allowed to swear a false oath of office on Inaugural Day.

But now, when it comes to Kamala Harris, all of a sudden, there are standards for performance that office that she doesn't meet.

r134 Biden will win. Politically he is killing it. People act like Trump is 20 years younger. He is four years younger, fatter and well..he is Trump. He tripped and fell, got back up and continued. So what.

Biden doesn't stand a chance. Please don't think the polls are an indicator. No one wants Harris anywhere near the White House. If you vote for Biden, you deserve him.

Speak for your deplorable self, r136.

I wouldn’t mind at all if she becomes President.

She would know damn good and well that she will not get the benefit of the “Just Wing It” slide Trump got, and she’d put in honest, hard, effective work and be secure enough to surround herself with the best help to do it.

White, Wealthy, Male privilege exists and the proof is that Trump isn’t in jail or, at least, unanimously shunned.

Do you really think Trump has gained voters since he lost by a landslide in 2020? After trying to steal the election and remain in power with fake electors and The Big Lie? DELUSIONAL.

I'm the next President. I'm a God Warrior.

President is not a solo job. It is the people they choose to advise them and surround themselves wtih. I am 100% sure Kamala would be surrounded by good people.

He will address the nation tonight.

8 million votes is "barely"? A 74-Electoral College vote difference is "barely"?

Lol, r147/r148 - Take your Nervine. Biden will win. Take your silly agenda elsewhere.

The proof is in the pudding, r148. Joe/Kamala are doing an excellent job. If you say they aren’t, well, you just wish it were true.

No agenda. Looking for honest answers. I gave up on politics when El Cheeto got away with insurrection. I just cannot for the life of me understand the thinking of Democrat strategists. I want someone to lead our country with strength. I am glad to see some cross the aisle work being done. But I think we can do better.

I'm too old. I'm 56.

Sounds like you want a Mr. Universe Pagent, toots, not a president with experience.

You know what a president under 50 will get us? Sex scandal after sex scandal. Photo ops with the kiddos to combat the sex scandals. More sex scandals. Dumb mistakes because he or she doesn't know WTF they're doing because they haven't been around long enough to know how to hold their temper, work the room, work with the other side, act with foreign dignitaries, not take their dicks out to compare every time some backwater dipshit challenges them.

Look at all the film directors that age still writing and directing. OTOH I know people in their early 60s who can barely function. So, yes, some people in their 80s can work just fine.

I don't plan on "packing it in" and heading to the nursing home just to sit on my ass and in my own feces at 60 unless fate steps in and takes me out. Olds can and are a vital part of life and society in their elder years; I plan on being one of them! If some want to retire from everything at the dawn of their sixth decade to sit and do nothing but reminisce, that's fine.

r173

R170, I’m 55 and I’m still kicking ass on DL!

There are definitely plenty of people who are very old and who function extremely. Let's not be anecdotal though. The vast majority of people 80 and up have no business running for President. Perhaps Biden is one of the outliers. History will be the judge of that.

Old people having to unretire to make ends meet is nothing to brag about.

History will be the judge of that.

The voters will judge first, and across the political spectrum seem pretty clear on their opinion

the poll, conducted by ABC News and The Washington Post, found that 68 percent of respondents, just over two-thirds, said that Biden was too old to serve a second term as president.

The former senator and vice president was 78 years old when he was sworn in as president in January 2021, making him the oldest individual to hold the office in American history. By the end of a potential second term, he would be 86.

Concerns about Biden's age, mental fitness for office, and general well-being have dogged him since he was elected. Despite numerous stand-out achievements, including the passage of sizeable bipartisan bills and a historically strong performance for his party in last year's midterm election, his approval ratings have sagged, and the new ABC/Washington Post poll showed just 36 percent of respondents approved of his performance as president.

The sandbag struck before too.

COLORADO SPRINGS, CO — The motive behind a sandbag's sudden attack on President Joe Biden became more clear today, as sources within the federal government have produced photos showing the sandbag also participated in the U.S. Capitol riot on January 6, 2021.

"This sandbag has been a dangerous entity for some time," said one source under the condition of anonymity. "After reviewing video footage from the January 6, 2021 riot at the Capitol, we discovered the sandbag among the other Trump-supporting domestic terrorists. The sandbag has evaded justice since that day, giving it the opportunity to trip President Biden at the Air Force commencement ceremony."

As officials continued to dig into the sandbag's past, further red flags were raised. "We have also found a lengthy manifesto written by the sandbag," the source said. "We will not be releasing the manifesto to the public due to the potential damage it could cause to our democracy, but it's really bad. Just trust us, we're the government."

Though unharmed in the tripping incident, President Biden has privately vowed to bring the full weight of the federal government behind his crusade to hunt down other sandbags. Additional reports seem to have indicated the sand inside the bag was white, raising concerns about ties to white supremacist organizations.

"This attack on our national security will not be tolerated," a White House press release read. "This sandbag, and others like it, are a serious and frightening threat."

At publishing time, the Biden administration had asked the intelligence community to look into possible ties the sandbag may have had to the Russian government.

So far, so good r176.

I remember when President Gerald Ford used to fall down and trip on the stairs boarding Air Force One now and then.

It's not a big deal. The fucking Nazi right wingers pretend it's a big deal but they're all losers who have nothing else to talk about. Oh, they can complain about how 0.6% of the population is Trans, that's... uhm... something?

The Republican Nazis are going to lose big again in 2024 and there is nothing that will save them from this. No doubt we will be the recipients of more meaningless faux-rage about a great many unimportant things between now and election day.

Repubs know that their base has no facility for critical thinking or reasoning. They long to be part of a hive mind. So anything they say -- no matter how dumb, contradictory or implausible -- will be believed and touted by the Repub base as if it was etched in stone by Moses.

P.S. Most of the republican base believes that Moses was a general in the confederate army.

If SNL was not in repeats due to the strike, would they dare mock Biden’s fall in a sketch?

Che and Jost certainly would.

I'm sure they would.

God, I hope they are back on air when more indictments come down for Trump! DELICIOUS mockery!

If it were just a fall by someone, okay, but SNL making light of an instance of Biden's continuing mental and physical decline would be in poor taste. Hopefully, they don't mock it.

I don't know about Che and Jost, but Seth Myers has certainly ridiculed Biden's gaffes.

Someone please do this with the Biden video.

R191, Che and Jost certainly have.

Dumb mistakes because he or she doesn't know WTF they're doing because they haven't been around long enough to know how to hold their temper, work the room, work with the other side, act with foreign dignitaries, not take their dicks out to compare every time some backwater dipshit challenges them.

Did that happen with Obama?
