There’s no denying it—one of the best parts of Donald Trump returning to the White House would be the end of Jill Biden’s reign as the nation’s unelected, unofficial “co-president.”
For four years, she wielded influence while shielding her husband from the harsh light of scrutiny, often acting as the de facto protector of a failing presidency. Now, as January approaches and President-elect Trump prepares to take office, Jill Biden will finally face the reality of her husband no longer holding the nation hostage with his frequent “gaffes” and questionable leadership. What will she do without the power she seemed to relish so much? Spoiler: She’ll have to deal with Joe—just Joe—and the mess their administration leaves behind.
Her remarks during a White House conference on women’s health research this week were a spectacle. Jill took a curious detour into a spacey soliloquy about “joy”—a word that feels oddly out of place considering the current state of the country. But the real eyebrow-raiser came when it seemed like she might have been trolling Kamala Harris. Jill’s musings on “peace and light” and her oddly poetic monologue sounded suspiciously like a parody of Harris’s infamous word salads. Was it intentional? Her sly smile and quick “You’re all reading into that!” certainly seemed to encourage the theory.
The irony is delicious. If Jill Biden, of all people, is taking jabs at Kamala Harris, it says everything about the disarray in the Democratic camp. The reported cold war between the Bidens and the Harris-Emhoff duo at the Kennedy Center Honors only adds fuel to the fire. Imagine sitting next to someone all night and refusing to acknowledge their existence. That’s the kind of petty drama that keeps political commentators buzzing.
She knows and the audience knows EXACTLY what she’s doing and she even called it out 😂. Incredible https://t.co/20bWsj890E

But back to Jill’s performance. Her remarks not only hinted at tensions but also at a palpable sense of relief. She seemed “unburdened,” as if she no longer had to fake camaraderie or keep up appearances for the sake of the optics. It’s a level of honesty that feels almost refreshing—though let’s not forget the damage done during her husband’s term.
Her attempts to channel “joy” are more amusing than inspiring, especially when contrasted with the glaring struggles of the administration. The economy is in shambles, inflation is sky-high, and Americans are left wondering how much worse it could have gotten if this duo had stayed in power.
As for her possible Trump endorsement (tongue-in-cheek or not), social media lit up with speculation. Could Jill Biden have voted for Trump? It’s probably a stretch, but the thought alone speaks volumes about how fractured the Democratic Party has become. If the First Lady is indirectly shading her husband’s chosen VP, it’s not exactly a ringing endorsement for party unity.
I’m here for the pettiness 🍿 https://t.co/tMxn4q17uD

Jill’s White House remarks were a fitting swan song for her time in the spotlight—a mix of awkward sincerity, veiled jabs, and a hint of comedic relief. And for the rest of us? Yes, we feel the joy she spoke of—joy at the prospect of real leadership returning to the White House. America First, indeed.
