Let’s face it — when the President of the United States takes a tumble, it’s never exactly great PR. But somehow, it keeps happening.

Joe Biden had his fair share of stumbles, and now it looks like Donald Trump isn’t immune either. Naturally, the internet couldn’t resist pointing it out.

Joe Biden’s health has been a topic of discussion for quite some time — and it ultimately led him to withdraw from his presidential campaign and hand things over to Kamala Harris.

His frequent falls didn’t exactly help reassure voters about his fitness for office.

According to NBC, Biden’s aides realized they had a serious problem when the former president tripped hard over a sandbag at the Air Force Academy’s graduation ceremony. In a post-event recap, several aides tried to figure out what had gone wrong and how to make sure such an embarrassing — and potentially dangerous — incident would “never happen again.”

In the months that followed, his team appeared to make quiet concessions to his age, all in hopes of avoiding viral moments that might reinforce public concerns about his ability to serve. One of those changes included having Biden use the shorter set of stairs to board and disembark the presidential aircraft, rather than the traditional grand staircase used by his predecessors.

But apparently, those Air Force One steps still have a sneaky way of tripping people up.

Caught on video

On Sunday, June 8, 2025, U.S. President Donald Trump experienced a brief but highly visible stumble while boarding Air Force One, reigniting a wave of reactions online — and a flood of comparisons to his predecessor Joe Biden’s own awkward moment last year.

The moment was caught on video and shared by TMZ on Instagram, showing President Trump dressed in a dark suit, carefully climbing the stairs to the aircraft. His right hand gripped the railing for support, but suddenly his foot caught on a step, causing him to falter forward.

Quick to react, Trump extended his free hand to steady himself on a higher step, regained his balance, and continued climbing without missing a beat.

The clip, replayed in slow motion, captured the stumble in all its suddenness—prompting a storm of responses on social media that ranged from humor to sharp irony.
