President Biden stumbled multiple times – and even needed an assist from First Lady Jill Biden – as he trudged through the sand near his Delaware beach house Sunday, according to footage of the moment.
The outgoing commander in chief, 81, was seen repeatedly losing his balance as he navigated the unstable sand in Rehoboth Beach Sunday afternoon, nearly a week after Vice President Kamala Harris lost to former and now future President Donald Trump.

At one point as Biden struggled through the deep and uneven sand, the first lady took hold of his arm to keep him steady, the video captured by CSPAN showed.
Biden then fastened his pace for a few wobbly steps as he moved toward shouting reporters who asked what he and Trump will discuss when the Republican comes to the White House for a meeting on Wednesday.

“Biden is currently battling the sand at his beach house in Delaware,” a Republican National Committee social media account tweeted. “The beach is winning.”
Biden, who was dressed in a pair of jeans and a dark sweater with a ball cap and pair of sunglasses on, shouted one inaudible word toward the reporters, but didn’t answer any questions as he retreated to a parking lot, according to a press pool report.
Earlier during the couple’s beach outing, Biden and his wife walked along the water with the president at one point stopping to check his phone as Jill walked ahead.
The pair returned to the White House hours later.

Biden has faced swirling questions about his mental and physical strength to serve in the Oval Office over the last four years as he made countless verbal gaffes and at times appeared confused.
Scrutiny over his aging mental state skyrocketed after his dismal performance in a summer debate against Trump when the Democrat was still running for president.
Following the shockingly poor showing and mounting pressure within his own party, Biden dropped his reelection bid and quickly got behind Harris.
