Joe Biden Falls Off Bike In Delaware, Comes Crashing Down
President Joe Biden fell off his bike and came crashing down as he took a ride near his Rehoboth Beach, Delaware vacation today. (See Video Below)
Secret Service agents quickly cleared away gawkers and helped the 79-year-old president up. “I’m good,” Biden said trying to shake it off. Biden then bent down to talk to a child who was waiting along the president’s bike route in Rehoboth Beach in what was probably a staged photo-op he botched by falling.
At 9:22 a.m. first lady Jill Biden went by on her own, also with her detail.
The little girl asked Joe what it’s like to run the country. Biden should have let Ron Klain or Susan Rice or whoever is in charge answer the question because he does not seem to be in command but he instead blurted out, “Oh it’s like any other job,” he joked. “Some parts are hard.”
He took the photo op and then got back on his bike and said, “Alright guys, see ya” and rode off.
Pool repprter Nikki Schwab said:
At 9:40 the president took a tumble off his bike as he stopped to say hello to the crowd. Secret Service swarmed him and he got up and then started talking to the crowd.
