Outkick contributor and frequent Fox News guest Tomi Lahren blasted those responsible for allowing Joe Biden to run for president and remain in office following his nasty fall at the Air Force Academy in Colorado earlier Thursday.
According to reports, Biden’s handlers blamed the fall on a sandbag that was on stage.
“He’s fine. There was a sandbag on stage while he was shaking hands,” communications director Ben LaBolt said.
The media pool report said: “He appeared to have tripped on a black sandbag on the stage. When he fell, pointed to the black sandbag suggesting that’s what he tripped on.”
“This is so sad and unfair to Joe and to the country. This is elder abuse,” Lahren tweeted along with a video of Biden falling.

Trump was informed of Biden’s mishap during a campaign speech in Iowa.
“He fell down? Well, I hope he wasn’t hurt,” Trump said upon hearing the news. “The whole thing is crazy, you gotta be careful about that, you gotta be careful about that, because you don’t want that.”
“Even if you have to tip-toe down a ramp,” he added, drawing laughs from the crowd.
Trump’s comments appeared to be aimed at past claims from Biden, who said he “runs up” ramps while Trump can only do so meekly and slowly descend.
“Look at how he steps and look how I step,” Biden told reporters at West Point in 2020. “Watch how I run up ramps and he stumbles down ramps, okay? Come on.”

Trump explained that episode before, noting that the ramp was wet from some rain and he was wearing slick shoes.
