“Did Jill Biden just kiss Kamala’s husband on the LIPS?!,” asked another. ‘Um, why did Jill Biden and Kamala Harris’ husband kiss each other on the lips?’ wrote another Twitter user. The prime event, on Tuesday night (local time), witnessed angry exchanges between Biden and House Republicans who booed him for claiming they want to ‘sunset’ Social Security and Medicare. At the start of his address, Biden pushed Republicans “friends” to cooperate. He said that the American economy is better positioned to grow “than any country on Earth,” despite disruptions from Covid-19 and Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine. He greeted newly elected House Speaker Kevin McCarthy and even acknowledged Hakeem Jeffries, the first Black party leader in the House and the minority leader of the House.
