Re: It is certainly an issue in the mind of some voters.
From the dinners declined, to the way he boards Air Force One and the shoes he wears, Biden’s routines are changing.
Would like to see Biden primaried by a legit challenger. Newsom? Klobuchar? President Biden has famously stumbled climbing the steps to board Air Force One. So now he's using a different set of steps. 'Aides are also trying to limit situations where any signs of physical frailty might be on heightened display.' From @politico
From the article: Everyone noticed the lack of socks. When President Joe Biden stepped off Marine One on a recent Sunday morning at Dover Air Force Base, he had just wrapped up a Delaware beach weekend. With his bare feet tucked inside his sneakers, he walked slowly across the tarmac to board Air Force One, which was headed to London for the start of a four-day European swing. The informality of the president’s wardrobe distracted from something else — something reporters who travel with him have been noticing for some time. Biden boarded using the shorter set of retractable stairs that fold into the belly of the plane.
That’s largely why aides are also trying to limit situations where any signs of physical frailty might be on heightened display — and to ease the burdens of travel where possible. For instance, last week’s leaders’ dinner at the NATO summit was the third such gathering Biden either skipped or left early in the past year.
The author finishes with a pessimistic conclusion: Nothing has been as dramatic as his fall on stage at the Air Force Academy’s graduation last month when he tripped over a sandbag, or his stumbles ascending the big stairs to board Air Force One during a 2021 trip to Atlanta. But as Biden wrapped up a successful trip across three countries last Thursday, he strode across the tarmac in Helsinki to board Air Force One using the lower stairs. And he still stumbled slightly going up.
If the Dems don’t act quickly, we’re going to end up with Kamala Harris as our CINC!
