It happened just before Joe Biden’s State of the Union address on Tuesday and left many onlookers dumbfounded: First lady Jill Biden greeted the vice president’s husband with a kiss pressed to the corner lips, igniting social networks.
After entering to applause, Jill Biden walked up to Doug Emhoff, husband of Kamala Harris, and shook his hand.
Then happened just after the controversial and now viral moment: they certainly exchange a kiss, but was it on the mouth… or just next to it?, wondered Internet users in disbelief.
“The smooch of the Union”, quipped the conservative tabloid New York Postfor whom there is no doubt that the two kissed “on the lips”.
Same story at Fox News, which published the video with the following caption: “Jill Biden and Douglas Emhoff kiss on the lips”.
Kellyanne Conway, former adviser to Donald Trump, took the opportunity to tackle the opposing camp on the pandemic.
“Wow, COVID is really over,” she tweeted, sharing a photo of the kiss.
