Donald Trump comments on Joe Biden's fall during a ceremony honoring graduates of the Colorado Air Force Academy
Former US President Donald Trump commented on the fall of his successor, Joe Biden, on stage during a ceremony honoring graduates of the Colorado Air Force Academy.
Trump was speaking at the Grimes Community in Grimes, Iowa, during an event to thank volunteers for his 2024 campaign.
"Well, I hope he's not hurt," Trump said. "I hope he's not hurt."
"The whole thing, look, the whole thing is insane... You have to be careful about it," he added.
"You have to be careful about that because you don't want to, even if you have to go down a slope."
The former president noted his caution following a speech at the US Military Academy at West Point in 2020.
Trump said at the time, "The platform was higher than this and the slope is ten yards (about nine meters) and I said, General! I have a problem because the soles of my shoes are leather, and it is good for walking on a flat surface, but it hinders Walking on the slope, I'm afraid of falling, Because the ramp is steel without a railing, like a skating rink General, I can't get there without falling over."
Trump stated that the general offered to hold on to him so he wouldn't slide, but Trump didn't want to, because he was confident the media would make a fuss about it.
On Thursday, US President Joe Biden had a fall while honoring graduates of the US Air Force Academy in Colorado.

America region: 300 firefighters from the United States and South Africa are heading to Canada to fight wildfires
More than 300 firefighters from the United States and South Africa will head to Canada in the coming days to help fight unprecedented wildfires.
Federal officials said Thursday that at least 100 US firefighters will arrive in Nova Scotia over the weekend to help battle out-of-control wildfires that have forced nearly 21,000 people from their homes since Sunday.
About 200 firefighters from South Africa are likely to head to Alberta, although officials say the wildfire situation in the country is precarious.
The arriving firefighters will join hundreds of colleagues from other countries, including Australia and New Zealand, who are already in Canada fighting the blazes.
In Nova Scotia, two large fires that are still out of control, one in the suburb of Halifax and the other in the southwestern corner of the province, have already destroyed at least 200 homes and cottages.
However, fire officials announced Thursday that the fire near Halifax was 50 percent under control and had not escalated on Wednesday.
Officials say that the number of fires so far this year is almost equal to the 10-year average, but the land area that these fires devoured (about 27,000 square kilometers) is unprecedented.
The fires have not resulted in deaths or injuries so far.
Source : US sanctions against Turks and Iranians for allegedly "conspiring" to kill John Bolton "for a fee"
Washington imposed sanctions on 3 people from Iran and Turkey, and a company of the Quds Force of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, on charges of planning to assassinate former US officials, US and Iranian citizens, and dissidents.
The US Treasury said the sanctions also targeted two senior Iranian intelligence officials accused of involvement in planning to kill journalists and activists.
These sanctions talk about preventing the targeted from accessing their money and property in the United States, as well as preventing Americans and American companies from dealing with them.
For its part, the US intelligence revealed many alleged plots to carry out assassinations in the past years, accusing the Iranian activist Shahram Boursafi last year of masterminding a plot to kill the former US National Security Adviser, John Bolton, in retaliation for the US air strike that killed the prominent Iranian general, Qassem Soleimani.
The US Department of Justice accused Boursafi of offering $300,000 to eliminate Bolton, knowing that the accused is wanted by the FBI on charges related to a "murder-for-hire" conspiracy.
It should be noted that after the airstrike on Baghdad International Airport in January 2020, and the killing of Soleimani, Bolton, who had left his position in the White House at the time, tweeted, "I hope this is the first step to regime change in Tehran."
