The world mourns as the most popular man who ever existed on earth is in pain.
President-elect Joseph R. Biden Jr. visited an orthopedic specialist in Newark, Del., on Sunday afternoon after he twisted his ankle playing with his one of his dogs over the holiday weekend, according to his office, an injury that his doctor said resulted in hairline fractures that would require him to wear a boot for several weeks.
HAHAHA!
A BOOT!
PRESIDENT BOOT!
Although initial X-rays showed no obvious fracture, a “follow-up CT scan confirmed hairline (small) fractures of President-elect Biden’s lateral and intermediate cuneiform bones, which are in the midfoot,” Dr. Kevin O’Connor, the director of executive medicine at GW Medical Faculty Associates, said in a statement distributed by Mr. Biden’s office.
Mr. Biden left the doctor’s office Sunday just before 6:30 p.m., after a visit that lasted just over two hours, and then went to an imaging center for a short time for the additional CT. A Biden spokesman said the president-elect had scheduled the follow-up on Sunday to avoid disrupting his schedule on Monday.
…
The dog Mr. Biden was playing with when he was injured is Major, a German shepherd the Bidens had fostered and then adopted in 2018.
Who names a dog “Major”?
If I ever get a dog, I’m naming him Steven.
I’m doubtful that the incident happened while he was playing with his dog. That seems like something that you say when you don’t want to say “the sonovabitch is so old he can barely stand on a floor, so stairs create a virtually insurmountable challenge.”
Plus, it would be really funny if he fell down while playing with his dog, and if that happened, they would have posted it on YouTube.
