Joe Biden brought to tears after wife Jill's touching tribute during farewell dinner

President Joe Biden became emotional as First Lady Jill Biden paid tribute to his presidency and years of service during a White House dinner on the South Lawn thanking longtime supporters.

On Friday evening, Jill Biden praised her husband's 40 years of service, including his last four years in office.

“What I’ve watched you do for more than 40 years is extraordinary ... what you’ve done the last four years is breathtaking," the First Lady said.

The tribute led to an emotional moment, with Joe Biden wiping his cheek.

Biden will step down in January 2025, handing over the presidency to Republican President-elect Donald Trump.

In his speech, President Biden highlighted his administration's achievements and expressed gratitude, calling his presidency "the honour of my life".

"William Butler Yeats wrote, 'Think where man's glory most begins and ends, And say my glory was I had such friends.' Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.," he said.

"As I look out over such friends, serving as president of the United States has been the honour of my life."
Biden will leave office on January 20, 2025, as the oldest US president.

He will be succeeded by Donald Trump, who won the 2024 presidential election in a landslide against Vice President Kamala Harris.

Unstable, delusional, and emotional.
I can't wait until January, when we get a real leader back in office.

[zhaowei]

Sipping champagne while his WW3 unfolds . Yup 😂

[Punchable-Face]

He should be brought to tears because of what he has done to the economy..

[brunogoldberg]

How can someone that JUST DID DAMAGE to the Country for over 40 years can feel proud what a CREEP

[suebethiantexas]

What he has done the last 4 years is horrific.

[JV-qecj]

[musiclady]

Puke. Stroking each other's egos, while he is on the verge of starting WW3 between U.S. and Russia.

It’s hard to feel sympathy for this bloke especially after the recent crap he’s pulling in Ukraine.

[laryjohnson]

worst president is something to cry about.

[amber]

Absolutely gross. How many have and will die because of his money and power grab? His judgment day can't come soon enough. We will not miss you in politics, Joe. Good bye!

[AlbertoRodriguez-qxdr]

I can't afford food and pay my gas... This actually brings me tears.

[beckymccreary]

Still delusional I see. "Dr." Jill should be in jail for elder abuse. Why isn't she?

[tombishop]

Imagine spending your whole life dreaming of reaching the pinnacle of success and then becoming known as the worst in history. What a loser!

[Gold]

Worst President we’ve had in Americas history.

[tracykimber]

He starts WW3 then gets a black tie affair. This world is unbelievable!!!

[LD-jvvq]

Dr. Jill: "You answered all their questions Joe". Jimmy Carter is no longer the worst ever!

[jujuanddaddyflash]

Well the only thing I see is better today then 4 years ago. Is that he's almost gone forever.
You know tax payers are going to have to pay for the secret service to protect him and his family till they die.
What a crock

[joanward]

The last for years have been breathtaking for me too! because of his Bidenomics! Thank God Trump will soon be back in office!
