He has 3" lifts in his shoes. I've noticed it in a few press conferences. That's how he gets his 6'-3" height. These are not boots, so it must make balancing a bit of a challenge.
Nothing wrong with anyone being sensible enough to hold on to the rail, every plane I've been on most people young and old , hold the handrail....is this post from a two year old....
@Pfuzylogic He must make that in his basement, I've never seen that color before for sale. But his lips are even worse....all puckered up like he's been eating lemons. lol
His being 70+, there could be lots of reasons. It takes more energy to go up and down stairs. Circulation problems in his legs could account for his need to steady himself on stairs. Also foot issues like gout or bursitis, where stairs may put more pressure on the front of the feet. There's also possible vision issues. Deterioration of peripheral vision can cause someone to misjudge a step's location and a serious injury. So hold on to the rail just in case.
@independentone Bone spurs can be very serious. They are usually caused by osteoarthritis and can be very painful and debilitating. They are often associated with other conditions such as gout. The best description of what gout feels like is like having glass slivers in your joints. Most of these arthritic diseases have no cure.
I'm always amazed at how leftist work so hard to manufacture nastiness out of nothingness :) ... reverting even to calling national guard members "draft dodgers".
@independentone I'll bet your balance isn't perfect at your age either. Balance has nothing to do with ability to do the job extremely well. You people don't like Trump because he is smarter than the establishment. If balance were the issue Ginsburg would have been gone years ago.
@Baremine I don't like Trump because I believe he is the most corrupt President we've ever had. I disagree with the majority of his policies. I think undoing all the environmental restrictions was bad for the country. I think the man lies and is only interested in helping and enriching himself and his idiot children. I really disagree with the division he has caused in this country. I'm not sure this will ever be a united country again. I blame Trump for that. I resent that over 200,000 Americans have died needlessly because Trump thought reacting to Covid would make him look weak. I really don't understand what I'm missing, just why do so many people still support Donald Trump?
@independentone you have believed the media bullshit. What you have said about Trump is only true of Barrock Obama. How can you blame Trump for covid19 deaths. That is absurd. Covid is hiped to the limits and the figures are false making people afraid. Believe me you need to be scared of the democratic party. They are evil.
@independentone Sorry, but you have to go to CNN, MSNBC, the New York Times or Washington Post if you are looking for an uninterrupted one-way, pro-Democrat conversation :)
