Ironically, a Fox News journalist co-signed that sentiment.
I saw Biden go down and get back up. There was strong sun during some of the Air Force Academy grad. He stood for a long time shaking the hand of all 900+ cadets. I was keeping my eye on him, he appeared alert and in good stamina throughout. Then took fall at end, crossing stage

Tripping and falling and having a bit of trouble getting up has become par for the course for Joseph Robinette Biden over his presidency. Around this time a year ago, Biden took a spill while riding his bike around his home state of Delaware.
And of course, there was the infamous and highly memed incident on Air Force One two years ago.
Fortunately for the 80-year-old, all is well aside from perhaps a little ego bruising. Take it easy out there, young man.
