Someone should kick it out from under him.

The video shows them taking away the walker, he walks up the stairs, then they give him back the walker. If he really needs a walker, he would have taken a ramp - all public buildings have them somewhere, even if it is not at the main entrance.
Having needed a walker at various points of my life, I know how it feels to rely on it and how to plan to not have to climb stairs. Weinstein obviously has never really needed a walker.

Disgusting. Just like him.
