Video of Joe Biden Appearing to Struggle to Get Into Car Goes Viral
https://www.newsweek.com ^ | 7/18/2024 | James Bickerton

Footage of President Joe Biden seeming to have difficulty getting into his vehicle after leaving Air Force One on Wednesday and appearing to need help has gone viral on social media.

The incident took place after Biden said he would be "isolating as I recover" after confirming he had tested positive for coronavirus on Wednesday afternoon. He earlier canceled a planned appearance at the UnidosUS Annual Conference in Las Vegas.

Concern over the age, frailty and mental agility of 81-year-old Biden surged following his first presidential debate with Donald Trump on June 27, during which he appeared at times to repeatedly lose his train of thought mid-sentence. In response, a number of prominent Democrats, including members of Congress, urged Biden to step aside so his party could select another nominee. This chorus was joined by California Representative Adam Schiff on Wednesday, who said he should "pass the torch" to another Democrat.

After announcing he had coronavirus, Biden flew to Delaware, where he slowly came down the stairs. Once he arrived at his vehicle, the president appeared to struggle to get in and received assistance, with footage of the incident broadcast live by ABC News.

Referring to Biden, one of the anchors said: "It appears he might be getting a little help just getting into the car there, hard to make out through the rain what exactly is going on there, but it does look like certainly the president's feeling the effects of early in the stages of Covid."

I never saw the one people discuss that has Biden struggling for two minutes or so to get a coat on.

Comedian said last night: “If no one had come to help him, he would still be twirling around tonight, still unable to get the coat on.”

How can he have Covid if he took the jab?

Great memory.

She was cushioned by a lot of pounds of body fat.
Joe might crackle and break up like a kid’s balsa airplane toy.

That his staff permitted that to be shown means that they are busy sawing the legs off Biden’s chair.

Don’t see any 5’2” overweight DEI SS agents there.

Jab or not, my theory is that Joe doesn’t have Covid. It’s just an excuse for his team to cancel scheduled speaking events.

Because as we all know, when Joe speaks disaster follows.

“....but it does look like certainly the president’s feeling the effects of early in the stages of Covid.”

More like the late stages of douchebaggery.

Has trouble going up and down the short stairs of AF1 and has trouble getting into the Beast.

Contrast with Trump getting shot, getting off of the floor and raising his fist to let the crowd know he was ok. But compared with getting shot in the head, Covid is a real bitch.

I mentioned as much on an early AM thread today. This video is zoomed in from what I saw and is an indictment to his condition. There is an SS Agent literally giving him a boost into the Limo to what is probably a child seat.

Jim: He is dead

On the news, I saw him get onto AF-1 yesterday and then back off last evening. He could barely make it up the short stairs and had similar difficulty down them at Dover.

He seemed to have had better motor skills recently and I wonder if he had a mini-stroke and not COVID?? Something changed biggly the last few days.

I like to spell it Boeuff, like Texas Ranger LaBoeuf in True Grit. Both versions were excellent.

Hauling lying Joe, it was called "the Boast," early in his term, and later "the Boost."

I’m thinking the Covid diagnosis is just a cover for an unexpected severe increase in senility and function failure.
