As President Joe Biden's term in office winds down, he appears more relaxed, almost relieved. A week after the November 5 election, a broadly smiling Biden invited President-elect Donald Trump to meet at the White House. Both men agreed that the meeting was friendly, and afterward, photos were taken of a still-smiling Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden with Trump. But things do not appear as cordial between Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.

Joe and Jill Biden, Harris, and her husband Doug Emhoff all attended the Kennedy Center Honors on Sunday night. But as the Bidens went to their seats next to Harris and Emhoff, they appeared to ignore them entirely. The Bidens did not greet or even acknowledge the vice president and her husband as they took their seats next to them. The Bidens appeared to not even make eye contact. The whole apparent snub made the rounds of social media quickly and created a lot of speculation about the reason for the silent treatment by the Bidens.

Several social media observers made the same comments others have made since Trump's election, including podcaster Joe Rogan, that both Bidens must have “voted for President Trump." Another asked, “What happened to the joy?" referring to Harris's campaign being described as "joyful." That post was answered by this: 

“Can you blame them[?] Best case scenario she convinced him she would win, worst case the[y] ousted him so she could run. Either way, they probably feel robbed."

There was also the comment that might have come from a Trump supporter delighting in the schadenfreude of it all, simply stating, “I love how awkward it is for them.”

Things did not seem nearly as awkward for Jill Biden as both she and Trump attended the reopening of Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris. The two were seen having what appeared to be a friendly chat during the ceremonies. Trump said of their meeting that Jill Biden was “Very nice. She couldn’t have been nicer. It’s politics. You have to get used to it. She was very nice and we had a very nice conversation.”

Trump Dishes on France Trip, Says Zelensky 'Wants to Make Peace,' Jill 'Couldn't Have Been Nicer' 

Democrats are experiencing a heavy dose of karma. Joe Biden won the Democrat nomination in 2020, tasked with one job: Be a one-term president and get rid of Donald Trump. He did that. But then he decided to run for a second term, despite his not being up to the job mentally being on full display. When he withdrew from the race in July, Kamala Harris had one job: Defeat Donald Trump. That did not happen. Now, Democrats have been reduced to finger-pointing over who is to blame for Harris's loss. 

Biden has also drawn the ire of many House Democrats, many who think that Joe overstayed his welcome and did not drop out of the race earlier. Rep. Jesus "Chuy" Garcia (D-IL) said:

“I think there’s a widespread sense that he took too long to get out and that it made it very difficult for Vice President Harris to run the most impactful campaign."

Added to this is also the decision to pardon the first son, Hunter Biden, after Biden repeatedly said he would not. One House Democrat could not have been more blunt, saying, “I am unplugging from Biden right now." 

Is Joe Biden tired of catching the heat for the election loss and blaming Harris for it? Possibly. But in a little over a month, Joe and Jill Biden will return to Delaware. It is pretty clear they no longer feel like they have to play nice.
