President Joe Biden made a visit to Michigan today to show his support for striking United Auto Workers. However, the focus shifted briefly when he was leaving Air Force One. The Biden administration has been concerned about his balance after an incident earlier this year at the Air Force Academy graduation. Despite efforts to improve his balance and wearing tennis shoes more often, Biden stumbled near the plane’s stairs on Tuesday.

Even his trusty tennis shoes couldn’t save him from this near-fall. The stumble became a topic of discussion, with some humorously nicknaming him “Jo-slip Biden,” as reported by the New York Post.

During his brief speech delivered through a megaphone at the strike event, there was a moment of confusion. Someone falsely claimed that Biden had a mental slip-up. Twitter later corrected this information with a community note on the tweet.
yes Joe Biden clearly says in the video it’s the first time he marched on a picket line “as president”
it is definitely a lie to say Biden said “in person”
but remember

In these uncertain times, unexpected events like this remind us to stay cautious. Just like Biden, we should make sure our tennis shoes are securely tied as we face each day. After all, we wouldn’t want to slip up on our own journeys.
