President Joe Biden continues to be a frontrunner for the 2024 election, with a possible rematch against Donald Trump looming.

One potential hurdle for some voters considering Biden is his age, an issue exacerbated by his viral slips and tumbles on staircases.

What Happened: At the age of 80, Biden is the oldest president of the United States in history. Following a series of falls by Biden that have become viral sensations online, his team appears to be implementing measures to alleviate age-related concerns in the lead-up to the 2024 election campaign.

A report from NBC News highlights the efforts of Biden's aides to navigate the issue of the president's stumbles while ascending the stairs to board Air Force One.

Biden has been altering his route to board Air Force One, opting for a shorter stairway that leads to the aircraft's lower level, rather than the lengthy staircase that ascends to the top and typically culminates in a wave to onlookers.

The president has been using the shorter staircase 84% of the time in the past seven weeks, compared to 37% of the time before his viral fall on stage at a graduation ceremony.

“You can’t be too careful,” a Biden aide told NBC News.

Why It’s Important: Along with the stumbles on staircases, Biden also had a viral moment when he tripped over a sandbag while delivering a speech at an Air Force Academy graduation ceremony.

An event in 2022 saw Biden fall off a bicycle while riding in Delaware.

In the age of social media, any potential miscue by Biden quickly goes viral and could provide potential material for the Republican Party and candidates to attack the age and fitness of the president ahead of the 2024 election.

While the use of shorter stairs may not completely address concerns about Biden's age, this subtle strategy employed by his advisors could help avoid another viral incident.
