As The Daily Fetched reported on Wednesday:
The New York Times reported that an agent has now been assigned to monitor Biden’s cling onto Air Force One to ensure he doesn’t fall.
The president’s declining mental acuity has become more evident as concerns about his age mount.
Last September, Biden almost tumbled down the stairs of Air Force One as he arrived in Michigan.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), those over 65 years have an increased risk of injury should they suffer a fall.
The CDC notes:
“Every second of every day, an older adult (age 65+) suffers a fall in the U.S.—making falls the leading cause of injury and injury death in this age group. One out of four older adults will fall each year in the United States, making falls a public health concern, particularly among the ageing population.”
While Biden was declared fit for duty” last year, it did say the president suffers from a stiff gait and neuropathy in the feet.
According to Breitbart, Biden tripped and caught himself on his way up the stairs to Air Force One in 2023 while visiting Poland.
He also fell multiple times boarding his transport throughout 2021.
The outlet reported:
“In March 2021, Biden fell three times as he boarded the stairs of Air Force One, for which the wind was also blamed. Some observers fear that Biden’s physical state may be representative of his mental state.”
Biden also stumbled on his way up to Air Force One with no Secret Service agents by his side in March 2023.
