He was biking with First Lady Jill Biden at a state park near their beach home in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, and stopped to talk to onlookers when he fell.

Taking some questions from reporters on Saturday, Biden said he was “in the process of making up his mind” about easing some Trump-era tariffs on Chinese goods to ease inflationary pressures.
He said that he would soon speak to Chinese President Xi Jinping.
And when asked if he was satisfied with progress on gun legislation — after mass shootings in Texas and New York brought new demands for action — Biden said only that he was happy with action by his home state of Delaware, which The attack was banned. -style weapons.
