Netizens ask Jill Biden to tell husband Joe Biden that 'it’s time’

After the clip of Joe Biden being escorted off the debate stage went viral, social media users took to X to brutally slam the President.

One social media user tweeted, “My husband asked where Milania was- I laughed and reminded him that he didn’t need someone to hold his hand while walking.”



 



 

Sharing a GIF, another said, “The Debate in a nutshell.”



 

One individual commented, “Wow he barely made it down the stairs.”



 

“Trump walked off the stage triumphantly while Joe Biden had to be rescued off the stage by his wife. It was hard to watch,” another added.



 

One person remarked, “How embarrassing, CNN didn’t even make the effort to cut this off. 🤣”



 

A supporter of Trump stated, “Biden is Toast Congrats! Your father was as good as he has ever been! Simply Outstanding!”



 

Another claimed, “Jill should be charged with negligence.”



 

“Craziest part was how CNN conveniently left the cameras running 😂 Hot swap incoming,” one tweet read.



 

“Jill should be a good wife and tell Joe that it’s time. I don’t think she is built that way and she just continues to push Joe out there so they can keep their power and prestige,” another tweet slamming the First Lady read.
