Many took to twitter to ask, “Did Jill Biden just kiss Kamala's husband on the lips?”
"I did not have this on my State of the Union bingo card…" another person tweeted.
President Biden is expected to use the night’s address to set the stage for possible 2024 re-election campaign, which he has not yet announced.
In addition to highlighting achievements won during his administration, Biden renewed his call for bipartisanship in a divided Congress and sought to convey a message of reassurance as Americans deal with record-high inflation and increasing tensions at home and abroad.
