US President Joe Biden addressed the nation after Republican nominee Donald Trump won the 2024 presidential elections against Vice President Kamala Harris on November 6.
After a neck-to-neck race, the US presidential election results were announced on November 6, declaring Donald Trump as the 47th President of the United States. This will be Trump's second term as president after being in office between 2016 and 2020. The MAGA leader was succeeded by Biden for four years before his comeback to the White House.
Shortly after Joe Biden's speech addressing US citizens, fans took to X, claiming the president looked the "happiest" he has ever been during his presidency. Netizens online also posted snaps of him smiling during his speech. One X user commented on the image, writing:
"He just gave his first completely coherent speech in four years. One last FU to Obama, Pelosi, and Kamala."
"Tell me you voted for President Trump without telling me," another user joked.
"Biden suddenly loses his Dementia & stupidity. Comes to his senses and joins MAGA," a netizen chimed in.
Netizens continued to discuss the matter, alleging the current president is happy about Trump's victory.
"We knew Dark Brandon and Dark MAGA had a connection," a fan commented.
"I don't know, Joe was glowing when he put on that MAGA hat lol," a person opined.
"Kamala, Obama, Pelosi- really screwed him over. I think he voted for Trump," an X user alleged.
Some of the other reactions were as follows:
"That’s the face of a man who has had his revenge," a fan quipped.
"He loves Kamala losing ! Don’t blame him after what they did to him," a user jibed.
"Yep he voted for Trump...," a person added.
"We accept the choice the country made"— President Joe Biden addressed the nation after Trump's victory in the 2024 elections
On November 7, President Joe Biden addressed the Americans after Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris lost to Donald Trump. The president described the loss as a "setback" but assured a "peaceful and orderly transition" of power. He said:
"Setbacks are unavoidable, but giving up is unforgivable. A defeat does not mean we are defeated. We accept the choice the country made. I've said many times, you can't love your country only when you win. You can't love your neighbor only when you agree."
The President further urged the nation to remain united irrespective of who they voted for and not see each other as "adversaries" but as "fellow Americans." He added that over 200 years the United States has carried out "the greatest experiment in self-government in the history of the orld." He said that the people were allowed to choose their leaders in a peaceful manner, as is ideal in a democracy where "the will of the people always prevails."
Speaking further at the White House Rose Garden, Biden also appreciated the "inspiring campaign" run by Vice President and Democratic nominee Kamala Harris.
"She ran an inspiring campaign, and everyone got to see something that I learned early on to respect so much — her character. She has a backbone like a ramrod, she has great character, true character. She gave her whole heart and effort, and she and her entire team should be proud of the campaign they ran," the President said.
Four months ago, President Biden had dropped out of the US presidential election race and nominated Kamala Harris to take his part. The President has claimed it was the "best decision" he made, in a statement on Wednesday, November 6. The Democratic leader further added that he hopes Trump's victory in the elections puts aside all alleged claims of discrepancy in the electoral system.
"I also hope we can lay to rest the question about the integrity of the American electoral system — it is honest, it is fair, and it is transparent. And it can be trusted, win or lose," Biden said.
Shortly after Trump's victory, Kamala Harris delivered a speech at her alma mater, Howard University, and formally conceded the race. Harris said she does not "concede the fight that fueled this campaign" and considers it a principle of democracy to accept the results of the election.
