Viral video shows Biden struggling to walk on Delaware beach

President Joe Biden, 81, was seen unsteady on a beach in Delaware, supported by first lady Jill Biden. The video sparked debate on social media about his physical fitness and readiness.

A recent video of US President Joe Biden walking on a beach in Delaware recently went viral on the Internet. Footage taken near Biden's residence yesterday shows the 81-year-old president struggling across the sandy ground side by side with first lady Jill Biden, who supported him with steady strides.

The CSPAN video showed Biden falling because he was walking through deep sand. He literally stumbled during certain steps while the First Lady held his arm and also clutched it for support. After walking just a few feet across this stretch of sand, the former vice president approached reporters nearby. He took the opportunity to ask him to comment on Wednesday's meeting in the White House with former President Donald Trump.

Donald Trump re-elected in historic comeback

A meeting at the White House that had been expected for months marked a historic event in American politics. In a shocking twist, Donald Trump won the last election, surpassing Vice President Kamala Harris, who was the Democratic nominee and ultimately failed to win a second term. Trump's victory makes him the first U.S. president since Grover Cleveland's second victory in 1892 to retake office in non-consecutive terms.

The video sparked much more heated chatter online about Biden's physical fitness. There was widespread reaction on social media, with many questioning his suitability to lead the nation, while doubts remained over his health. Biden is currently fighting the sand of his beach house in Delaware – the beach is winning.” Steve Cortes, founder of the League of American Workers, stated: “Joe Biden cannot walk on sand. This man is the president for the next 71 days.”

Concerns about Biden's health have persisted throughout his term in office

New concerns about Biden's apparent physical frailty have emerged as months after he took a close public look at his health, he is repeatedly questioned about his mental and physical stamina, occasional verbal gaffes and instances of apparent confusion while attending public events. The latest incident adds to the debate over his fitness for office as his term ends before Trump's scheduled inauguration on January 20, 2025.
