On Friday, former President Donald Trump blamed the stage contractor after seemingly wobbled during his rally in St. Paul, Minnesota via Newsweek.
It has been noted that a clip of the moment was posted by the X, formerly Twitter, account Biden-Harris HQ, which is associated with President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign. In the footage, Trump could be seen leaning on his podium and trip toward the left while addressing his supporters, moving the dais with him.
“You know, this is the worst platform,” Trump said after his lurch. “Who put this stage up?”
“It keeps tilting further left,” the former president added. “Like too many other things.”What a crappy contractor this was.”
The Biden-Harris HQ account described the former president as “feeble” in the incident, writing in its post, “A feeble Trump nearly falls down on stage after he leans on his podium too hard and then goes on an angry rant calling his event workers ‘crappy.'”

Meanwhile, during the rally, Trump also blasted Biden and even demanded that the president take a drug test before the two candidates debate this summer. The former president has previously suggested that Biden was “all jacked up” during his State of the Union address in March.
“I just wanna debate this guy, but you know, I’m gonna demand a drug test too, by the way,” Trump said Friday. “I am. No, I really am. I don’t want him coming in like the State of the Union. He was high as a kite.”
The presumptive presidential nominees for their respective parties, Biden and Trump, earlier this week agreed to two presidential debates. One will be hosted in June by CNN, with another scheduled for September and hosted by ABC.
