Partisan pundits immediately clashed on Twitter following footage that showed President Joe Biden falling down the stairs while boarding Air Force One on Friday.
While talking heads on one side of the political aisle faulted some for hyperbolizing the event, others indicated that the fall could be pointing to larger health issues.
Left-leaning pundits and social media users quickly dismissed the fall and the ensuing coverage, condemning those who were reporting on it as news.
Conservative-leaning talking heads had a completely different take, and viewed the stumble as an indication of larger health issues.
David Rubin and Kellyanne Conway also pointed to the fact that the media often covered concerns regarding Donald Trump’s health, questioning how they would cover the Biden fall.
