President Biden’s demeanor during a recent White House meeting with President-elect Trump has set social media abuzz. The meeting, which took place in the Oval Office, was part of the transition process following the contentious 2020 election.
Both leaders pledged to ensure a seamless transfer of power. President Biden assured Trump, “I look forward… to having a smooth transition. We’ll do everything we can to make sure you’re accommodated, what you need.”
However, what truly caught the eye of observers online was Biden’s apparent joy during the meeting. Many remarked that the president seemed unusually happy, with some even suggesting that he was pleased to see Trump return to the White House.
“Biden’s never looked happier,” commented Link Lauren, a former senior adviser to Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., on X.
Colin Rugg echoed this sentiment, stating, “I’ve never seen Joe Biden this happy.”
The speculation continued with Morgonn McMichael questioning, “Who else thinks Biden voted for Trump??”
Comedian Tim Young added to the conjecture, writing, “Biden… all smiles… said ‘Welcome Back’ to Trump… You can’t convince me that Biden didn’t vote for Trump.”
Former Pennsylvania Republican Senate candidate Sean Parnell noted, “Joe Biden shares the same smile that most of America has right now. Everyone is psyched for Trump to be back in the White House. Including Biden.”
In a comparison to past transitions, the X account “EndWokeness” shared side-by-side photos of former President Obama and Trump appearing reserved during their 2016 transition meeting, juxtaposed with the smiling Biden beside Trump.
This meeting followed another social media stir involving First Lady Jill Biden, who appeared to give Vice President Kamala Harris a cold reception at an Arlington Cemetery event. Commentator Steve Cortes remarked, “It’s safe to say that Jill Biden hates Kamala Harris’ guts,” while sharing a video of the interaction.
As of now, the White House has not responded to requests for comment on these events.
