Presumptive President-elect Joe Biden gave details about the incident that left him with a hairline fracture in his foot during his first joint interview since the 2020 Election with presumptive Vice President-elect Kamala Harris Thursday.
“What happened was I got out of the shower, I’ve got a dog, and anyone who has been around my house knows, and the little pup dropped the ball in front of me, for me to grab the ball,” Biden said.
“I’m walking through this little alleyway to get to the bedroom and I grabbed the ball like this and he ran and I was joking running after him to grab his tail. And what happened was he slid on a throw rug and I tripped on the rug he slid on.”
He added, “Not a very exciting story.”
