Biden Social Media Post Stirs Discussion
President Joe Biden is facing mockery for vowing to never “give up” after deciding to withdraw from his re-election bid.
In a post on X on Sunday, Biden wrote, “I will never give up on the manufacturing communities and workers that were left behind by my predecessor’s administration.” He added, “I’m committed to ensuring the future of the auto industry is made in America by American union workers.”

Several users were quick to point out the contradiction, noting Biden’s recent decision to drop out of the 2024 race:
“You already gave up, Joe. You dropped out of the race a week ago. Remember?” one user commented.

“Says the guy who quit running for re-election because it was obvious that he was going to lose,” another wrote.

The backlash came in the wake of Biden’s dramatic announcement last week that he would not continue to seek re-election. This decision has stirred significant reactions, with many questioning the consistency of his latest declarations.
There’s been some weird stuff going on at Facebook too. Meta (FAcebook) has issued a statement after they social media network claimed the image of Trump raising his fist after being shot was flagged as “altered.”
