Leading 2024 presidential candidate and 45th President Donald Trump reacted to the news of President Joe Biden falling on stage at the U.S. Air Force Academy graduation ceremony on Thursday, gracefully hoping Biden "wasn't hurt."
"He did? He just fell? On what stage?" Trump asked.
"He's at the Air Force Academy?" Trump learned.
"He actually fell down? Well, I hope he wasn't hurt. I hope he wasn't hurt. Look, the whole thing is crazy. You've gotta be careful about that. You don't want that," Trump said.
"Even if you have to tiptoe down a ramp," Trump said to a laughing crowd.
"It's like an ice skating rink. That was the best speech I think I ever made and it was pouring rain. It was horrible and cold and windy. And they had a ramp that was like an ice skating rink. And it was like 25 feet long and I was talking to the general. He had boots on. You know, big combat boots. Rubber soles. I have nice leather. I said, 'You know what, general? Get ready. If I grab you, you just get ready. Because I've got this stupid ramp that somebody put up and there's no stairs. So I tip-toed down. And I suffered for that. They never covered my speech.
Videos show Biden walking quickly off the stage, tripping, and falling to his knees. Personnel quickly picked him up.
According to a White House pool report, Biden tripped on a "black sandbag on the stage" and "continued to stand until the ceremony ended a few minutes later."
"Biden just fell on stage," a member of the audience informed Trump, appearing in Des Moines, Iowa.WATCH: @realDonaldTrump reacts to Joe Biden falling down at the Air Force academy
