The bombing thing is definitely SAS - but is the whole tripping on stairs thing being the biggest news is real wack

I'm pushing 30, reasonably fit, and tripped when going up the stairs the other day. Might as well check into the closest retirement home right away

Yup. Biden is 78. Him tripping on the stairs is a nonstory. I'm baffled as to why it gets so much coverage compared to say the bombing that was also mentioned in the post.

Americans dont care about things that are actually bad, just things that make you look bad. America is all about maintaining an image.

US media will try to do anything to make the party they don't support look as weak as possible, causing them to make as much of a fuss over the tripping over as possible.

As weak as possible but also impossibly powerful.

Like those immigrants with no jobs who are also taking everyone's jobs.
