It's dumb but I think people care about how "strong" their President looks in superficial ways. Like many have said, falling while trying to get off a bike with pedal straps can happen to anyone regardless of their age/health, but it's the image of it that gets to people when the stumbling guy is the "most powerful man in the world".
It's like how the media reported on Trump walking down that ramp at a rally as if he were a 95 year old or how people started to question his health because he drank water by holding a bottle with two hands.
It's superficial but it happens to all Presidents.
I feel like the only two fit Presidents I can recall in my lifetime were Obama (by far) and Clinton. My money is on Obama in a game of 1 on 1 basketball vs a randomly selected American the same age.
