Concerns over the next president’s age are nothing new. After all, former President Donald Trump is 77 and current President Joe Biden is 81.
While Biden’s gaffes and falls on the stairs of Air Force One have been well documented, it’s Trump’s age that has been drawn into question most recently, Knewz.com has learned.
According to The Mirror, a video showing the former president “dragging” his leg has gone viral, putting into question his fitness for office.
The video of Trump dragging his right leg caught the attention of social media users since the former president has never mentioned anything wrong with that part of his body.
The video, first posted to X by Ron Filipkowski, a Trump critic and editor-in-chief of the independent news agency MeidasTouch, shows Trump clenching his fists while walking around a stage as MAGA supporters cheer him on.
However, the video also shows Trump firmly gripping handrails of stairs as he makes his way off the stage as he appears to steady himself.
“Something is definitely going on with his right leg. He’s been dragging it for months. This weekend…” Filipowski captioned the video.
As OK! reported on February 29, a Trump spokesperson responded to the video by attacking Biden.
“As President Trump said, crooked Joe Biden is a mental midget unfit for office,” further fueling the discourse surrounding both politicians.
Trump has often criticized Biden’s cognitive ability and fitness for office. Nicknaming him “Sleepy Joe,” Trump often has often been critical of the president, who known for speaking gaffes and falls on the stairs of Air Force One.
In one of his most recent gaffes seen by the masses, Biden called a Georgia woman who was killed by an illegal immigrant “Lincoln” Riley, the name of the University of Southern California football team’s coach, during the State of the Union. Her name is Laken Riley.
On Tuesday, March 19, Trump posted a dual video on Truth Social showing Biden during an interview and an outing.
In the interview, Biden is heard saying, “Watch me. Honest to God, that’s all I think: Watch me if you don’t think I have the energy level or mental acuity …” Along with that video, another clip plays simultaneously showing Biden under an umbrella looking aimlessly as handlers point and show him where to go as they walk inside a building.
Despite the concerns over both candidates’ health — they are the presumptive nominees for their parties — both have had recent medical examinations that were considered positive.
According to a report from The Associated Press on February 28, Biden’s doctor, Kevin O’Connor, declared that the president “continues to be fit for duty.”
“President Biden is a healthy, active, robust, 81-year-old male who remains fit to successfully execute the duties of the presidency,” O’Connor wrote in a six-page memo on the president’s health, after a physical at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.
Meanwhile, Trump’s campaign released a note from his doctor that said he is in “excellent” health and that his cognitive exams “were exceptional,” according to CNN.
The review came from Dr. Bruce Aronwald, who calls himself “Trump’s person physician since 2021.”
The letter added that Trump’s “cardiovascular studies are all normal and cancer screening tests” were negative and that he had lost weight.
