US President Joe Biden delivered an emotional farewell speech at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago on Monday as he handed over the mantle to the party’s presidential nominee, Kamala Harris, for the upcoming November election. Biden who was visibly emotional wiped away tears as he stepped onto the stage of a packed arena, following an introduction by his daughter, Ashley. The crowd greeted him with placards that read “We (heart) Biden,” to which he responded with a heartfelt “I love you” before beginning his hour-long address. Near the end of his speech, Biden reflected on his time in office, saying, “Like many of you, I gave my heart and soul to this nation,” prompting the audience to respond with resounding shouts of “Thank you, Joe.”

Soon, the stark moment where Biden used a tissue to dab away his tears on stage became a talking point on social media.

While reacting to Biden’s emotional farewell speech, an individual wrote, “Whoa! All those individuals with tears welling up in their eyes. What a beautiful farewell to Joe Biden for a life of service to the US.”

“It was a good send-off speech for Joe Biden. It was an emotional night for his family. There was a part after the speech ended and Jill Biden came out to meet him at the podium where you could see Jill catch herself to keep from crying,” said another.

“American citizens have been crying for 3 1/2 years because of your feckless leadership. So you can stop your boohooing right now,” is what this individual wrote as he reacted to Biden’s farewell speech.

Another expressed, “So proud to call him President! I cried tonight watching @JoeBiden @POTUS say goodbye. I wanted four more years of him, the most amazing and empathetic heart we have had in an office, ever. Thank you for all!”

“Yeah we are all hoping that Kamala follows Biden and this is her big farewell,” chimed in a fourth.

A fifth posted, “I had to turn off the Democrat National Convention, Monday night because of Biden’s whopper lies. It’s a ship of Utopian Reality Deniers. A picture taken during Biden’s farewell speech showed a scornful and irritable look. Give me a break with fake joyful BS!”

Here’s what this X user has to say:

Biden and Harris were sworn in as the 46th President and 49th Vice President of the United States in 2021. The 2024 US Presidential election will be held on November 5. People in each state and the District of Columbia will vote people to the Electoral College, who will then elect a president and vice president for a term of four years.
