Ironically one of the official jobs he’s been obstructing is the person who cleans water and ice off the passenger staircase.
LOL, ok, that’s, errrr, icing on the cake. So to speak.
ISWYDT and wish it would translate. 
ETA: The article does not mention where the slipping fall happened, but you don’t have ice yet in the USA, do you? He slipped on his own, frost free, right? No excuse except his own double-left-flat-footedness?
Too wide and it doesn’t hurt though, which negates their whole purpose of throwing someone under to begin with.
Some parts of the lower 48 can have ice this early in the year but, no, frozen water was not a factor.
Or, rather, I’m sure you’ll find that ice together with the missing server with all those buttery males
Yes, I think that’s what happened, based on the video. Very unlikely any actual ice was involved. But the irony was so rich, it was impossible to resist.
Better said by @Great_Antibob.
By all accounts this is from 2014.
Are you trying to spoil my inordenately schadenfreude now that we found it at last? Oh, well… when reality hits rock bottom with the coccyx I laugh, can’t avoid it. A slapstick classic.
ETA: I see I was ninja’d on the date of the Tuberville incident, but I’ll let this stand anyway.
I have some bad news for y’all, Schadenfreude-wise. I’m afraid that video of Tuberville trying to fly is not new, in fact it’s from 2014. One of millions of Tuberville haters resurrected it and posted it to Twitter. It wasn’t only Jalopnik that was fooled; Newsweek is running the same story.
I was curious what airline this was, since I could see the letters “MIAM” but nothing else. Turns out it’s Miami Air International, which was a charter airline that went out of business in 2020.
Sorry for the outdated Schadenfreude. This is the story behind the story if you’re interested:
Ah, well. It was fun while it lasted. I’d never seen that clip before, so it felt quite schadenfreudey to me!
The comic timing might not be so good, but it makes the hypocrisy of calling Biden frail for stumbling even worse if Tuberville couldn’t walk down the stairs when he was 55.
He was trying, badly, to carry two smallish bags, one in each hand, while going down the stairs. He did not have a good grip on the railing for that reason. Since he was only 55 at the time, I suspect that he had not mentally reached the stage in his mind where age dictates a more cautious and careful approach to going down stairs.
We could add spikes to the tires.
No, but this is the Pit, I refuse to be a grown up here.

Apparently, the twitter user named “catturd” is also on Truth Social. And guess who retruthed the bigly esteemed catturd three times in a row? Not sure why I feel schadenfreude over this, but I think if I was a former-POTUS, I’d avoid anyone name catturd, particularly one that is a known troll. Hell, I’m not a former-POTUS or anything close, but I avoid catturds!

Childish slur department (HE (CFSG) STARTED IT!!):
Cut and replace Tuberville with Tumorville or Tumblerville.
Vile human being from his coaching days to our current national plague of idiots.
Nitpick: He was born in 1954, so he turned 60 in 2014.
Staffers on former President Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign are now totally free from non-disclosure agreements they signed barring them from taking legal action or publicly disparaging Trump, as a federal judge formalized a settlement agreement Wednesday over a lawsuit claiming the agreements were overly restrictive. …
The settlement—which also involved the Trump campaign paying $450,000 to resolve the claims— …gives ex-staffers more legal protections after the campaign informed them last year they were no longer bound by the agreements. …
The non-disparagement agreement stated employees could not “demean or disparage publicly” Trump, his company or family during their work for the campaign and “at all times thereafter.”
Trump Media’s funding partner says it’s returning $1 billion in financing
Well, part of the $1 billion.
The funding partner for Trump Media & Technology Group said that it will return the remaining $533 million of the $1 billion raised to finance the venture after investors canceled $467 million of commitments. …
The stock, which topped $100 in 2022, was at $15.40 ahead of the start of trade on Friday. …
With the loss of the funding, it’s unclear how Trump’s media group, called Trump Media & Technology Group, would finance its operations after the merger. The plan was that DWAC would provide TMTG with a deep pool of funds after the merger was completed.
Judge refutes claims that 80% of Trump civil fraud case was dismissed | Fact check
An Oct. 2 post on X, formerly Twitter (direct link, archive link), includes a picture of New York Attorney General Letitia James.
“BREAKING,” reads part of the X post. “New York Attorney General Letitia James … leaves the courtroom without granting any interview after losing 80 percent of the case against Trump on day one because she could not figure out what the statute of limitations was.” …
Our rating: False
The judge presiding over the trial said all claims are allowable under the statute of limitations. No part of the case has been dropped.
