Joe Biden has been praised for restoring "dignity" and "integrity" to the United States while "defending democracy" in the country.
Just moments after announcing his decision to withdraw from the presidential race against Donald Trump, who has garnered strong support from MAGA after surviving an assassination attempt on July 13, several famous figures expressed their admiration for the 81-year-old Democrat. Biden shared his announcement in a letter posted on X.
Former President Barack Obama, 62, took to X to commend his longtime friend. He stated, "Joe Biden has been one of the most consistent presidents in U.S. history and, to me, a beloved friend and colleague. Today, we are reminded once again that he is a patriot of the highest order."
Mark Hamill, the iconic actor known for his role in ‘Star Wars,’ commented on Biden’s journey to the presidency after the tumultuous four years under Trump. He wrote, "Joe Biden has an unprecedented track record of accomplishments unmatched by any president in our lifetime. He restored honesty, dignity, and integrity to the office after four years filled with lies, crimes, scandals, and chaos. Thank you for your service, Mr. President. Now it’s our duty as patriotic Americans to choose a Democrat who will honor and promote your legacy."
Barbra Streisand, 82, a longtime supporter of Biden, shared her thoughts on the same platform, expressing, "Joe Biden will go down in history as a man who achieved significant milestones during his four years in office. We should be grateful for his defense of our democracy."
Political comedian Jon Stewart, 61, simply stated: "Legend."
George Takei, the 87-year-old actor from ‘Star Trek,’ also weighed in on Biden’s withdrawal from the presidential race. He said on X, "I want to honor our president @JoeBiden. He has served our nation admirably for decades, is a decent and honorable man, a tremendously successful president, and a patriot. Let us now rally behind @KamalaHarris and defeat Donald Trump in November!"
The rapper Lil Nas X, 25, added a light-hearted comment under Joe’s Instagram post with a playful joke: "Wow, he really is younger."
In contrast, Trump shared his thoughts on his platform, Truth Social, stating, "Twisted. Joe Biden was never fit to run for president, and he certainly isn’t fit to serve – and he never was!"
This exchange of sentiments highlights the polarizing nature of contemporary American politics, showcasing both support and opposition as Biden steps back from the presidential race.
