Well Joe Biden fell while getting off his bike this morning, so that’s pretty much going to be the only thing on right wing social media today. Good times.
:batting:
I've done that and I'm younger. It happens.

I wanna see tfg figure out how to get onto a bike.

Reports are that "Biden got up, dusted himself off, talked to the crowd for a minute while laughing at his spill, and peddled away."

Pedaled! (Pendantic!)

That's what I would have done. I once fell and laughed so hard I couldn't get up.

When sprout was in 1st grade I started working at a local restaurant, The Peach Café. It was popular and busy and I loved it. The kitchen was up a flight of stairs, which we all ran up and down dozens of times a day. There were tables tucked into a corner to the left of the stairs and on this particular Sunday they were mine. The stair rail had an extension that extended slightly beyond the last step.

As I stepped off the stairs and rounded that corner with three meals and drinks, my apron caught on the rail. I pitched forward and, with one hand on the rail and the other holding the tray for dear life, I spiraled gracefully to the ground. Like a pole dancer. ;) Everything on the tray went flying up and then came crashing down. It’s a miracle no one got eggs or coffee on them.

You know, time acts funny in times like that. It seemed like forever that I stared, stunned, in the sudden dead silence that ensued, at the breakfasts on the floor and at the equally stunned faces of the diners. I’m sure my mouth was open. I looked back at the rail and just started laughing. One by one, the diners began to applaud. Bus boys came to sweep and mop, and just like that the show was over.

Trips happen. Biden rides bikes and drives fast cars and probably surfs. He falls over, he gets up. If trump fell off a bike he’d claim someone tried to kill him and sue the bike manufacturer. Tfg golfs. BFD. I’d REALLY like to see him surf. 🍩

If Donald fell off his bike he would just say he didn't, all the videos are selectively edited and one-sided. He would call into maria bartoromo and claim it was a perfect ride, the GOP electeds will say they haven't seen the video.

In 2015, when "asked when was the last time he rode a bike, Trump said it was when he was 7 or 8 years old."

In the first half hour of F&f this morning, first half hour. No mention of today's hearings. Big block of time to report on the Colbert kerfuffle. Even played clips from last night's explanation. Blamed it all on Adam Schiff and what a liar he is and I forget what else bad things they said about him. :brickwallsmall:

At least Fox daytime programming covered the hearing and couldn’t make excuses for Trump today. That’s too much for Steve Bannon to take.

They knew it was fake, and they didn't care. They literally put people's lives in jeopardy, for what?

Toxic. It's toxic. There's no two ways about it.

Tucker: It's not even close. The guy at Pelosi's desk is hilarious compared to the guy with the talking dog and none of them is half as fun again as Donald Trump.

you'll be shocked to learn that Hannity forgot to ask Ron Johnson about this when he appeared on his show tonight
:roll:

I'll point out that I watched about an hour of Fox & friends First this morning. The ONLY mention I heard of yesterday's J6 hearing was that Chris Christie had something of a verbal tussle with ABC anchor and Christie was cut off before he could reply. For realz :faint:

I was dozing, but did have F&f on for an hour or two, I don't recall hearing any mention of hearing then either. Lots of talk about inflation/gas prices and election results of Republican races and who tfg endorsed. :yawn:

When I checked in this morning, they were talking about Biden and the Easter Bunny preventing him from answering questions about Afghanistan. Still. I lasted about 3 seconds on that one before flipping.
