President Biden is reportedly using "lower stairs" in Air Force One to avoid tripping incidents, Politico reported Wednesday, noting an "intentional shift" in an effort to make presidential travel easier.
Politico reported that two of Biden's advisers "privately acknowledged an intentional shift to steer the 80-year-old president to the lower stairs more often to make his travel easier and limit the possibility for missteps."
The outlet also highlighted the president was wearing sneakers as opposed to dress shoes recently.
"The sneakers are another concession to comfort necessitated by age," Politico reported. "One person close to the president said Biden used to always resist wearing anything other than dress shoes, believing that any other footwear look was unpresidential. But he has eased up on that stance in recent months."
