    Is there a point? He stood himself back up. Without any assistance. Continued up the steps, turned and saluted. Trump couldn't walk down a ramp unassisted. Biden exercised, jogs, rides a bike. I'd like to see Trump do either of those.

    If you were trying to make some kind of comparison of physical fitness, I think you failed.

      No one mentioned Trump but you.

      Your mind misinterprets random sentences to be about Trump. It is some kind of freudian obsession.

      I think GP's point is that Sleepy Joe is unfit. You chose to compare Unfit Joe to Unfit Donald, so I'll play along. I don't recall any videos of Trump stumbling on the steps up into an aircraft. Unless you can link to such a video, then, yes, Donny is more fit than Joe.

      But then, you "trigger" a related response. Fusty beats his drum long and loud that we, the voters, should flush the septic tank labeled "Washington, D.C." regularly. I try to sing harmony with his drum beating from time to time. FFS, why in hell was the election between two old bastards like Donny and Joey?

      We did have younger, qualified people running, but the voters rejected some of them, and the D party rejected the rest. It's pretty damned embarrassing, actually.

      And, finally - do you still seriously expect Joe to hold his office for 4 years? The dumb bastard has a hard time reading his teleprompts now. Won't take questions at all. His handlers will have him put out to pasture soon.

              Odd, do you have Twitter blocked? Intentionally or otherwise? Try https://www.waynedupree.com/2021/03/joe-biden-ramp-trump/ [waynedupree.com]

              That may not work either, because the video is still coming from Twitter.

                I was able to read that. Thanks. I didn't know he had said that. But since he did, it is most definitely something people should repeat far and wide. And now that I know about it, I will when appropriate.

                  Better to block AC than to block DuPree.

        Since you are definitely old enough, my guess is that dementia has erased memories of President Ford falling down the steps while exiting Air Force 1; I seem to recall that it happened more than once. We all got some good laughs out of the spectacle. Chevy Chase certainly used it to good affect to further his career as a comedian on SNL. But no one ever questioned Ford's fitness to be President.

      President Ford was well-known for being clumsy, but was he? That's just what you saw on TV, repeated over and over.

      President Clinton wasn't thought to be clumsy, but how would you know? The media liked him.

      It's the same with Trump and Biden. You only see what they want you to see. You probably didn't see Trump walking off-road to reach an event, jumping over obstacles at the side of a highway. He did that, with no assistance from the Secret Service. You probably didn't see Hillary Clinton shoved into a van like a side of beef, her body stiff and unresponsive due to some sort of neurological issue. You probably didn't see her spasming out, with weirdly flopping head and gaping mouth. That happened too.

      If the media followed you around all day, what story could they tell? With the right editing: drunk, or athletic, or clumsy, or incoherent, or presidential, or sleazy, or foolish... or whatever.
