Move over, Hatfields and McCoys — America’s got a new feud to gawk at.
Except this time, there are no moonshine stills, shotgun standoffs, or Appalachian drama. Sadly for Democrats, this is the modern age, where political pettiness is played out on camera with forced applause and awkward grins as the soundtrack.
The players? Joe and Jill Biden vs. Kamala Harris and her “Second Gentleman” (because nothing says modern marriage like giving your husband a title that sounds like a rejected superhero name).
The scene? The Kennedy Center Honors, where the Bidens pulled a move so cold Frosty the Snowman had to put on a sweater.
Newsbreak reported:
“President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden gave a cold shoulder to Vice President Kamala Harris and her husband, second gentleman Doug Emhoff, as they entered the 47th Kennedy Center Honors to an applauding crowd.
The president and first lady were seen on video not making eye contact or acknowledging the vice president and her husband as they walked past them and waved alongside them.
The vice president and second gentleman remained effusive and applauded the Bidens during the standing ovation despite the first couple ignoring them.”
First of all, can we take a moment to appreciate the power of passive aggression?
The Bidens basically perfected the art of the social snub. No glares, no side comments — just pure, unadulterated “I don’t see you, Kamala” energy. That takes skill, or maybe just years of marriage practice.
Still, when Joe and Jill Biden were announced, Kamala and hubby clapped like trained seals. Nevertheless, let’s hit rewind.
This tension didn’t start at the Kennedy Center. It’s been brewing since at least Veteran’s Day, when Jill Biden gave Kamala the cold shoulder so sharp it could’ve sliced through steel. What’s the beef? The plot to get rid of Joe.
During the period where Democrats contemplated dumping Joe Biden, Harris quietly circled the Oval Office like a hawk eyeing a wounded rabbit. Everybody knows that she had been “read in” on the coup conspiracy”.
Remember, this partnership wasn’t exactly built on a solid foundation of trust and camaraderie.
Biden and Harris weren’t teammates; they were co-workers forced into the same cubicle. And just like in any dysfunctional office, one person inevitably starts plotting their takeover the moment the boss trips over his own shoelaces — metaphorically or otherwise.
Kamala’s mistake? She forgot to be subtle. Harris was to Brutus as Biden was to Caesar. And on the Ides of July, Harris lured Biden into the chambers and it was knives out.
This feud isn’t just personal — it’s deeply ironic. These two were supposed to be the ultimate DEI power couple, the living embodiment of “diversity, equity, and inclusion.” And yet, their partnership has ended not with a bang but with a whimper — followed by a very public cold shoulder. DEI brought them together; meritocracy is tearing them apart.
And let’s not ignore the racial subtext here. If a Republican president had pulled this move on a Black female VP, the media would be spinning like a carnival ride. But with Joe Biden? Crickets. If anyone’s keeping score at home, this is the same Joe Biden who gave Hunter a free pass on more crimes than your average Bond villain. But Kamala? She’s not getting so much as a sympathy hug.
So what’s next for these two?
The Bidens are on their way out, with Joe clutching his “most pardons handed out to family members” trophy. Kamala, meanwhile, is back to being a political punchline, waiting for someone — anyone — to take her seriously. As for the Second Gentleman? Let’s just hope Doug has a good therapist on speed dial.
The irony is almost poetic. Two political climbers brought together by convenience, undone by their own egos. It’s like watching a reality TV show where everyone loses.
In the end, the Biden-Harris feud won’t go down in history like the Hatfields and McCoys. There won’t be ballads sung or documentaries made. But for now, it’s the perfect blend of comedy and tragedy to keep us entertained — until the next scandal comes along.
