Joe Biden trapped on Air Force One after US presidential jet lands
in snowstorm

Joe Biden has been trapped on board Air Force One after it landed in
a severe snow storm.

The president was delayed in disembarking the private jet after the
stairlifts struggled to get through the thick snow at Joint Base
Andrews, Maryland, in the US, on Monday.

The Democrat leader and his team, along with reporters and others
inside, had to wait 30 minutes as base staff contended with the
blizzard conditions.

Photos show Biden - who is 79-years-old and will soon celebrate one
year in the White House - in a face mask bracing himself as he
stepped onto the runway.

A secret service official walked a few feet behind the commander-
in-chief as he carefully climbed down the stairs before entering a
waiting motorcade.

Biden was forced to travel the 15 miles back to the White House by
car as his helicopter Marine One was grounded due to the weather.

For the snowy drive back to the White House, Biden used the SUV
version of his car - known as The Beast - instead of the armoured
limousine.

He was originally scheduled to land straight on the South Lawn of
the presidential home.

It comes as parts of the US were bombarded with snow, with as much
as 10cm forecast and multiple flights cancelled.

Police were forced to close the grounds of Capitol Hill as snow
caused tree branches to fall.

Clueless fool Jen Psaki's first press briefing of the year was also
cancelled. Thank you Mother Nature for small favors.
