17 times Obama and Joe Biden proved they have the world’s greatest bromance

JOE

We might only have a week left of Obama and Biden in the White House – eight years of the greatest presidential bromance of all time is coming to an end.

They’re just going to have to be regular old mates now because, let’s be honest, there’s no way they’re not going to be going round to each other’s house for sleepovers just because they don’t work together any more.

I mean look at them…

1. You have never seen any two people look as in love as Barack and Joe look in this picture of them at the basketball. Fact.

2. They fucking love going to sports together.

3. Look at them hugging after Obama’s second victory speech. Look at how Obama closes his eyes. That’s a hug of true love.

4. They hold each other like a couple who have been married for 30 years.

5. Are they about to kiss here? We couldn’t possibly say.

6. Michelle knows she’s the third wheel in this relationship.

7. Obama loves Biden so much he’s just given him the highest honour you can bestow on any American. What has your best friend ever awarded you?

This video will destroy you, by the way.

8. Look at them zinging together. They look like a world famous comedy duo.

9. Biden looks so proud, sitting at the back there, supporting his mate.

10. This picture says everything about their relationship. Biden’s the one who’s always joking around and Obama has to pretend to take things seriously but is basically constantly stifling laughter.

11. Which is why the Obama/Biden memes are so perfect.

12. You can imagine these conversations genuinely happening.
