After several carambolas of US President Joe Biden – and growing public questions about his ability to carry out the presidency for another term – the White House decided to deploy “drivers” who accompany the US president in public to cover up his clumsy gait. The American media notices that agents of the US secret service intervene even when Biden goes down the stairs.

The eighty-one-year-old US president has recently come under increasing pressure from the American media and the public because of his age and the various escapades that often accompany him. While journalists complainthat Biden allegedly avoids them to be sure, the American public is more afraid of him memory lapses and the president’s mental health, which is according to special investigator Robert Hur in such a state that Biden cannot be punished even for the investigation of the release of classified documents.

American television Fox News and Axios server note that due to concerns about how the current president will handle the next term he intends to seek in this year’s elections, the Biden administration has decided to distract attention from his stiff and clumsy walk and procured him “guides” who accompany the American president in situations where he is captured by media camera lenses.

Aides, walking alongside the US president, often position themselves to distract attention from Biden’s walk. And while Biden could previously be seen making his way across the South Lawn of the White House to his presidential helicopter, Marine One, by himself, Axios reports, he has recently been accompanied by several “drivers.”

Several Biden advisers told Axios that videos of the 81-year-old president walking alone on grass could alert reporters and voters to his age. They said new images and videos of the president are more favorable and aides will continue to join Biden. The advisers also revealed, according to the server, that Biden himself came up with this idea.

Aides, such as close adviser Mike Donilon and deputy chiefs of staff Bruce Reed and Annie Tomasini, are now often placed between Biden and the camera crews to keep Biden’s clumsy moves from being too flashy for the media.

Fox News notes that Biden’s doctor previously revealed that the president’s peculiar gait is caused by “arthritis of the spine” and “mild sensory peripheral neuropathy in the legs” and that the president undergoes physical therapy most days to improve his movement.

The American president has problems especially when boarding Air Force One, as he has already tripped and fallen several times. The White House started using shorter stairs due to the president’s problems getting on the plane, and the Secret Service now according to The New York Times he places an agent at the bottom of the stairs every time Biden gets off the plane.
