New moment of embarrassment for US President Joe Biden, whose every move is constantly scrutinized by television cameras.
The tenant of the White House was indeed filmed struggling and going about it several times to put on his own jacket, as he returned to Washington DC by helicopter after a visit to Kentucky.
Due to intense gusts, the 79-year-old president had to call on his wife, Jill Biden, to help him put on the garment.

Sequences that question
But this is not the only embarrassing moment in this sequence, since the American leader then dropped his aviator glasses on the tarmac, trying to catch them in flight without success, and therefore bend down to grab them.
This is not the first time that Joe Biden has shown clumsiness in front of a camera since the start of his presidency in 2021. These few incidents, without any seriousness, however raise questions about his age and his fitness for the job. .
American writer and radio host Clay Travis, who shared the footage on Twitter, commented: "Joe Biden can't even put on his own jacket.
It's just sad.
And it's getting sadder and sadder."
At the time of the scene, Mr. Biden and his wife had just completed their tour of Kentucky to meet with families and people affected by Monday's devastating flooding in the eastern part of the state.
During their tour, the presidential couple met with the families who lost their homes due to the catastrophic episode that killed 38 people, and which President Biden described as "another sign of dangerous climate change".
The Head of State also promised that these shattered lives would be restored, in a message of optimism.
Opinion about him is very divided in the United States, which will face in three months the midterm elections where the fate of the Biden presidency will be decided.
