President Biden‘s getting better at saving himself from nasty tumbles … ’cause he was thiiis close to going down Wednesday in the middle of a memorial for fallen police officers.
The commander-in-chief attended the National Peace Officers Memorial Service at the Capitol where he walked up a gradual flight of steps, and as they say … the first step was a doozy.
Check out the clip, JB’s left foot kicks that initial step up, but he quickly corrected his gait … breaking into a half jog to keep himself from faceplanting in front of the crowd.
The Prez made it up the rest of the stairs without incident … but, a bunch of social media users — including many Republican accounts — are highlighting the near slip as an example of his advanced age being an election issue.

Of course, it’s nowhere near the worst spill he’s taken over the years … remember, about a year ago POTUS collapsed during the Air Force Academy graduation after tripping over a sandbag.

And, who can forget in 2021 when the president tripped on multiple steps while jogging aboard Air Force One … before a particularly sneaky stair forced him down to his knee where he collected himself and finished off his run.
Basically, the guy’s slipped a lot, but Wednesday’s near-fall proves 46 can still recover.
Now, the question is can he do it at the polls, come November.
