Former President Obama taking President Biden by the wrist to lead him off stage is just the latest instance of others directing Biden during public events.
Political allies, family members, at least one foreign leader and even the Easter Bunny have all stepped in to assist President Biden offstage or direct him during public events, as shown by videos published by news outlets and circulating on social media.
The White House denied anything odd about the video, instead arguing that the video used 'an artificially narrow frame to hide from viewers that he just saw a skydiving demonstration' and that Biden was 'saying congratulations to one of the divers and giving a thumbs-up.' The pair of high-profile incidents within the space of a week underscore growing concerns about the 81-year-old president’s cognitive state.
When asked about the series of videos showing people guiding and directing Biden during public events, White House spokesperson Andrew Bates told Fox News Digital in a statement that they depict 'routine moments for any president.
In 2022, a young girl was seen on camera leading Biden off a stage during a Christmas season Toys for Tots event with the United States Marine Corps Reserve in Arlington, Virginia.
