Jill Biden initially commented on her husband's withdrawal from the US presidential race with an emoji. The First Lady used her private account on the X platform to repost the corresponding post by US President Joe Biden with two pink hearts. Shortly beforehand, he had announced via social media Instagram, Facebook and X that he would no longer be running for a second term in the November election. In recent weeks, the 81-year-old had come under massive pressure within his own party due to his age and mental state. Biden's withdrawal so close to the election is a dramatic turnaround and causes further chaos in an already historic US election year.
