The only people who care about the presidents physical fitness are people who hate the president. Trump walking up the stairs at that military event was replayed a billion times by his haters or his not being able to drink a glass of water with one hand was a big discussion point.
No one really cares. No one really cared about Bush throwing that pitch at 9/11. It was a good pitch - so writers could make metaphors about it. If he had slipped and fallen off the mound - they would write about its a story about how America fell on 9/11 but got back up.
It doesn't make America strong or soft. They could elect an actual sloth as president and as long as they have the most powerful army in the world and bunch of nukes - everyone will treat them the same.
