Videos circulating on social media have generated speculation that President Joe Biden might have fallen down the stairs of Air Force One after arriving in Poland this weekend.
-snip-
Following his arrival in Warsaw, social media users shared videos showing a person falling down the stairs after walking off a U.S. government airplane. But it is not clear if the plane is Air Force One.

A White House spokesperson told Newsweek that the person who fell was not Biden.
Also, a different video, shared to YouTube by ABC News, shows that Biden walked down the steps of the plane without falling. By contrast, the videos that show an individual falling also show numerous other people walking down the stairs. In the video of Biden, he is alone.

(32,116 posts)It looks straight out of a video game. And, not a very high-quality one. It's so bad, it's pathetic.

(32,116 posts)With lots of help from our whore media. Today's "Good Morning America" featured East Palestine, OH's Mayor Heart-Attack-Waiting-to-Happen spewing on about how Biden "cares more about Ukraine than us." No mention that this sweaty fuck told Biden to stay a way from the onset. It was an odd juxtaposition from the clips of Gov. DeWine trying to prove the water is safe.

(10,894 posts)They are so miffed about Biden's successful and widely praised overseas trip that they're howling at the moon, again.
And what have they done for the country beyond McCarthy turning over J6 tapes to a propaganda platform? Or praising their best friend Putin? Or MTG calling for civil war (with benefits)?
They're scared shitless. The elections didn't turn their way last night either.
Republicans are on the wrong side of . . . EVERYTHING!

(58,785 posts)spouting this malicious verbiage it'd be something else.
But never forgetting: "Lock her up!" -- at BOTH conventions.
At some point they will work themselves up to calling for false imprisonment or assassination of political opponents again. Again. That's when we need to react so loud that we make everyone understand what they're capable of.
