Re: walks the ramp

It is idiomatic. «Walking the ramp» means being a clothing model at a live show in the same way that «treading the boards» means acting on stage in a theater.

Re: walks the ramp

The first «walk» is intransitive, and the second is transitive. A models walks the catwalk, runway or ramp, she does not walk on it.

The first «walk» is intransitive, and the second is transitive. A models walks the catwalk, runway or ramp, she does not walk on it.

k but even if the second one is transitive then how can anyone walk something like catwalk, runway or ramp.

Re: walks the ramp

I don’t think it is transitive, any more than ‘run’ in the slightly different ‘run a mile’.

However, whether or not it is transitive, the idiomatic expression is used as mykwyner explained in post #3.

Of course it is transitive. It has an object: ramp. You could look in a dictionary, too. It is not idiom, it is a straightforward definition of the word. «Tread the boards» is an expression meaning «act in a play», «to walk the floor» is to fret, but we can run a race, walk the streets, climb every mountain, ford every stream—there is nothing odd here.

Re: walks the ramp

There’s nothing odd to you, but many people reading this are learners. When they have probably learnt that ‘run’ and ‘walk’ are intransitive then they may well wonder if some words are ellipted in ‘run a race’ (in), run a mile (for), walk the boards (on).

If we claim that ‘of course’ certain things are true, or that things that appear strange to them are not at all odd, then we are not helping build their confidence.

Trump’s Halting Walk Down Ramp Raises New Health Questions

The president also appeared to have trouble raising a glass of water to his mouth during a speech at West Point a day before he turned 74, the oldest a president has been in his first term.

President Trump faced new questions about his health on Sunday, after videos emerged of him gingerly walking down a ramp at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point and having trouble bringing a glass of water to his mouth during a speech there.

Mr. Trump — who turned 74 on Sunday, the oldest a U.S. president has been in his first term — was recorded hesitantly descending the ramp one step at a time after he delivered an address to graduating cadets at the New York-based academy on Saturday. The academy’s superintendent, Lt. Gen. Darryl A. Williams, walked alongside him. Mr. Trump sped up slightly for the final three steps, as he got to the bottom.

Another video circulated of Mr. Trump taking a sip of water from a glass tucked inside his lectern on the dais at West Point. Mr. Trump held the glass with his right hand and brought it to his mouth, but appeared to momentarily have trouble lifting his arm farther. He used his left hand to push the bottom of the glass so that it reached his lips.

Mr. Trump posted defensively on Twitter late Saturday night about the video circulating of his walk, and offered a description that did not match the visuals.

“The ramp that I descended after my West Point Commencement speech was very long & steep, had no handrail and, most importantly, was very slippery,” Mr. Trump wrote. “The last thing I was going to do is ‘fall’ for the Fake News to have fun with. Final ten feet I ran down to level ground. Momentum!”

There was no evidence that the ramp was slippery, and the skies were clear during the ceremony.

The videos again raised questions about the health of Mr. Trump, whose advisers have never fully explained his abrupt visit to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in November, saying at the time only that it was intended to get a jump on his annual physical.

The White House doctor released a memo this month that summarized Mr. Trump’s yearly checkup, but provided little information beyond blood pressure (normal) and a description of his course of hydroxychloroquine as a prophylactic after the president was exposed to two staff members who tested positive for the coronavirus. The summary was not the customary report released in the past by Mr. Trump and other presidents after a physical.

Mr. Trump’s difficulty traversing stairs and ramps has come up before, most notably in January 2017, when he clutched the hand of Theresa May, then the British prime minister, as they walked at the White House.

The president has frequently tried to raise questions about the health and mental fitness of his rivals, while growing indignant when his own is questioned.

Most recently, he and his allies have questioned the mental acuity of the presumptive Democratic nominee, former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr., who is 77. But Mr. Trump spent much of the fall general election in 2016 challenging the “strength and stamina” of his Democratic rival at the time, Hillary Clinton, who suffered a bout of pneumonia and was videotaped unsteadily being led into a van at the annual ceremony at the World Trade Center site to commemorate the victims of the Sept. 11 attacks.

Mr. Trump’s personal physician before he was president, Dr. Harold N. Bornstein, has said publicly that Mr. Trump dictated a note the doctor wrote about his fitness when he was a candidate.

“If elected, Mr. Trump, I can state unequivocally, will be the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency,” the doctor wrote in the note, which was released in December 2015.
