The 81-year-old president attempted to wear the helmet presented by the team, but it got stuck, prompting some players to assist him.

There was also controversy involving Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker, who recently faced backlash for a commencement speech at Benedictine College where he expressed pro-life, pro-family, and pro-Catholic views. Many people on social media reacted to the video of Biden's helmet struggle, making disparaging comments about his age and suggesting embarrassment among the Chiefs players. Additionally, the incident became a focal point for critics of Biden’s presidency to question his ability to effectively lead the country.
Concerns about Biden’s age have been widespread, with a recent poll indicating that a majority of Americans doubt his fitness to serve another four years in the White House. The survey, conducted by ABC News/Ipsos, revealed that 86 percent of Americans, including 73 percent of Democrats, believe Biden may not be mentally and physically capable of efficiently fulfilling his presidential duties.
