Former President Barack Obama's post praising Joe Biden backfired after many claimed Obama helped force Biden to drop out of the 2024 presidential election. Obama extolled Biden's achievements just moments after Biden's farewell address. However, some users pointed out that Obama had a role in encouraging Biden to drop out. Concerns about Biden's declining mental acuity and his chances of winning re-election led to pressure for him to drop out, which he eventually did, endorsing Kamala Harris. Biden used his farewell address to warn about the concentration of power in the hands of a few wealthy individuals.
