President Joe Biden is doing just fine after he tripped three times going up the steps to Air Force One.

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki was asked by a reporter on Monday, ā€œJust checking on the president. He fell going up the steps to Air Force One on Friday. Is he okay?

ā€œHe’s 100% fine,ā€ Psaki responded. ā€œI don’t know if you’ve been up those steps, they’re a little tricky sometimes.ā€

She also said she is ā€œnot awareā€ of Biden, 78, needing to see a doctor after the stumble.

When asked for a definitive answer, Psaki said, ā€œHe was walking around, as you all saw, by the end of the day … He’s absolutely fine as he was on Friday.ā€
