The RNC has calculated that Joe Biden has spent 40 percent of his presidency on vacation. White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre assured the press earlier this week that Biden is "working around the clock … as he always does." First lady Jill Biden echoed that claim, telling an interviewer that "people don’t see … how hard Joe works every single day!" She's correct … we don't see it. Joe Concha tweeted about the irony of Jill Biden saying that on the same day when her husband had absolutely nothing on his public schedule.
We're used to seeing Biden's back. He's at Camp David this weekend. RNC Research posted a video of him climbing the big stairs of Air Force One, and is it just us, or did Biden look a little wobbly there at the top as he let go of the handrail?

Yeah, he's "working around the clock."
He's not lasting until Election Day. The deterioration has escalated. 😳

Any word on when the stair lift will be installed on Air Force 1?

Does walking up the tall staircase & waving count as a public event?

We just hope the flight crew on Air Force One represents diversity.
He’ll be gone by the 4th of July.

I think we should all applaud the fact he made it up the stairs.

Biden't handlers need to get him a portable escalator. He could hurt himself getting on and off Air Force One.

This is elder abuse

This is American abuse.
Wow, he hit them stairs like Rocky!

Is this the sympathy vote?

Everyone holds their breath... He made it!!! Take that, stairs! What a champ.

When a “win” is not turning into the cockpit thinking you’re driving this plane - we the people have to explore other options. #LetsGoBrandon

Part-time president. Full-time disaster.

Sure is taking those stairs slowly.

Yeah, he didn't give us that little jog that he does to show how spritely he is.
It's not good when we're all wondering if he's going to make it up the steps.
