President Donald Trump stumbled as he walked up the stairs to board Air Force One on Sunday, quickly correcting himself.

The incident occurred at Morristown, New Jersey as Trump boarded the aircraft bound for Washington, D.C.

Why It Matters

Such slips by former President Joe Biden captured much attention from Trump and his supporters online during the previous administration. Such incidents now add fuel to the narratives concerning the president's age.

What To Know

Trump lost his footing momentarily after a few steps, but steadied himself by gripping the railing, videos show. He then continued his climb up to Air Force One.

Social media users were quick to poke fun at the president, particularly in light of his past remarks mocking his predecessor for similar stumbles.

In 2023, Trump and his supporters mocked Biden after he stumbled and fell to his knees at the Air Force Graduation ceremony in Colorado.

Trump described the fall as "not inspiring" for those who witnessed it, but added: "I hope he wasn't hurt. I hope he wasn't hurt...You don't want that."

He recalled the moment he had to walk carefully down a ramp at the Army's West Point graduation ceremony in 2020, comparing it to "an ice-skating rink."

"The whole thing is crazy, you have got to be careful about that, you don't want that even if you have to tip-toe down a ramp," Trump said.

The president also said in 2023 that "Joe Biden can't even walk up a flight of stairs on Air Force One and he can't put two sentences together," as he called the Biden administration incompetent.
