For crying out loud, will someone PLEASE walk with him? He’s 78-years-old and marching up the steps in the rain – BOTH hands occupied and unable to hold the handrail.
Yes, we get that there’s protocol. We get that he doesn’t want to look feeble and weak (too late). We get that it’s embarrassing to need assistance. GET OVER IT, Mr. President!
You want embarrassment? Taft got stuck in a bathtub. That was embarrassing, but it didn’t put his life at risk.
Seriously, give the man some assistance or install one of those chairs for handicapped people. We didn’t vote for him, but if he falls to his death then we’re stuck with President Harris.
