President Joe Biden stumbled three times Friday as he took the stairs to board Air Force One and head to Atlanta to condemn a spree of shootings that killed eight people, and those who continue to mock the Commander in Chief are now facing ridicule themselves an entire day after the incident.

After video surfaced which showed the President lose his footing twice and fall once as he ascended the stairs, many quickly took to Twitter to mock him over the incident, making a variety of claims including that it proved he was unfit to serve in his role, as well as stating it made him look weak in comparison to his predecessor, Donald Trump.

Trump himself seemingly got in on the fun as well, according to a video that appeared to show him speaking at Mar-a-Lago and once again repeating his proven false claim that he didn’t lose the election at the same time.

However, as criticisms and jokes spilled over into a second day, it became clear that Biden supporters were over it—and wondered if conservative-minded critics really had nothing else they could focus on.

Others decided to school critics by reminding them of similar incidents with Trump, and commended the way Biden handled it, while his predecessor usually took to social media to fight back.

Some also pointed out that if this was the worst Biden could do, he was already doing better than Trump.

As far as a response to the video, a press secretary who traveled with the President assured the press that he was “doing 100% fine” after the incident.
