The video on Wednesday came just one day after many social media users speculated that Biden fell down the steps when arriving in Poland. However, a video posted by ABC News showed that Biden walked down the stairs without falling, and a White House spokesperson told Newsweek that the person who fell was not Biden.

Following Biden's stumble on Wednesday, the video was shared by a number of other Twitter accounts, with many criticizing Biden and calling his health into question.
