One of our guys thanked him for catching Mrs.Reagan and the room erupted again.
We also mentioned that he would be president and once again the room erupted.
‘____catching Mrs. Reagan’
Anyone who escorts Nancy Reagan has got to be super vigilent on the pathway.
I know people who were at the Reagan Library when Mrs. Reagan, ecorted by Marco Rubio, started to fall.
As they were walking, to thunderous applause, seems she was probably too close to one of the many posts in the floor which were roping off areas for seating, thus making an aisle in which to walk from the back of the room to the front.
Her cane seemed to poke a bit into one of the post’s holes, causing a mis-step of course.
It was also said this aisle may have been a tad narrower than ‘usual,’ to allow for seating.
Because of these post hole ‘traps,’ one must be sure to keep Mrs. Reagan in the center of the aisle.
This was 2 people’s take on the incident.
It is my opinion that she needs to be walking in the center of the aisle, which would be the escort’s job. Personally, I think a second escort should flank her right side - just in case.
Mrs. Reagan has gone to many Library events over the years, and is usually escorted by the featured speaker.
She is frail, but a good sport, I think.
