President Donald Trump stumbled while boarding Marine One, raising fresh questions about his health. The incident, captured on video and widely shared online, shows the 78-year-old tripping on the first step before quickly regaining balance and continuing up the stairs.
Trump, known for mocking President Joe Biden’s past stumbles, now finds himself at the center of similar scrutiny. Despite the online uproar, Trump’s team has yet to comment on the incident. Whether this fuels further health concerns or fades into political noise remains to be seen.
Social Media Reacts To Donald Trump’s Misstep
Critics and commentators were quick to highlight what they see as a double standard in media coverage.
“Trump has bruises on his hands, he drags his leg, and is stumbling on the stairs. Clown boy is falling apart. You know the media would be all over this if President Biden were falling with bruises and sh*t,” one user posted.
NEW: Nearly 80-year-old Trump tripped and almost fell down while boarding Marine One tonight.
This comes after he was seen with bruises on his hand, dragging his leg, and using the baby steps to board Air Force One.

Another person on X (formerly Twitter) commented, “Trump stumbles going up the stairs of Marine One. Age and weight are catching up to him. In about a year, they’ll have to hoist him in there with a bovine sling and a crane.”
Trump and his supporters have often ridiculed Biden, 81, for his physical missteps, including a well-documented fall at the Air Force Academy in 2023. However, with Trump now experiencing similar public stumbles, some are calling for equal scrutiny.
