1898

You can’t really smoke and be in most of healthcare. They drug test pretty much everyone, and if you are in business or IT you’re also going to go through pretty extensive background and financial checks for the same reasons… I mean we build a lot in our systems just trying to make sure things can be caught, but it’s only so good.

Healthcare, financial, teaching… the list gets pretty big of where you could lose your job over a random or legally purposeful test. I guess my point is it’s not just federal and even in the states that legalized it, it’s still a problem.

Biden just needs to get over his war on drugs crap mentality and legalize this.

1899

Yep its all over the news. Different angle here.

1900

I’m sure this will be covered reasonably and responsibly by all centrist and right-leaning news organizations.

I’m sympathetic to Grampy Joe here because at least once a day I trip on something, and occasionally on nothing at all, but I thankfully don’t have cameras following me around constantly. That said, I got Parks and Rec “Get On Your Feet” vibes from it, and I feel bad for having laughed.

1901

That looks like slippery soles of new shoes on carpet to me. Been there, done far worse. Note that the soles of his shows are a consistent black when he trips.

The political angle and how this will be covered will have little to do with anything factual, of course.

1902

Time to get Air Force One a chair lift for them stairs. :P

I kid, I kid. :)

1903

Chevy Chase is going to get a guest shot on SNL this week.

1904

I hope he spends the next several weeks telling everyone at his rallies how steep and slippery those stairs were!

Seriously, is it a good look to trip like that? No. But he was hustling up those stairs, tripped twice, got back up and completed the remaining stairs just fine. I don’t think we should be electing people as old as Joe Biden, but the dude seems to be in far better physical shape than most people who are 78 and mentally seems on par with where he was at as VP.

1905

Here’s another angle on that stair thing:

1906

I’d rather have a guy with some pep in his step who occasionally trips than a lumbering, dour pustule who never has a misstep.

1907

I know exactly the look that’s going to be on Tucker Carlson’s face during his show tonight!

1908

This is really going to undercut Biden’s claims that he will be the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency.

1909

Didn’t he fracture his foot not too long ago? Step on your foot just right with a new or old injury, and anyone will go down.

1910

He broke it tripping on a throw rug.

1911

This clearly disqualifies him from holding office.

1912

It’s funny how the slights against Biden are ‘Oh look how clumsy he is!’ while Trump was literally caging up children away from their parents, among the hundreds of other horrific activities he engaged in while in office.

1913

All that, and DJT couldn’t walk down a ramp unassisted and couldn’t close an umbrella.

1914

Or drink water.

1915

Trump also took the same flight of stairs with toilet paper stuck to his shoe, which I thought was much more embarrassing

1916

One of “what’s that smell? was that a fart? or a shart? or did I totally shit myself?”

1917

In my case, they raised a red flag on a disputed job, but ended up believing my side of the story that they were crooks.
