Vice President Joe Biden is no stranger to headline-making moments, especially thanks to his lighthearted—and sometimes awkward—interactions. But his latest encounter with Hillary Clinton is making waves online, and not exactly in a good way.

The moment unfolded earlier this week, when Biden stepped off a flight and was greeted on the tarmac by Clinton. What began as a typical handshake and warm welcome quickly turned into something else: a surprisingly long hug that left Clinton visibly uncomfortable.

A Hug That Wouldn’t End

At first, Clinton seemed happy to see Biden, smiling as she opened her arms for a friendly embrace. But as the hug lingered well past the usual few seconds, her smile started to fade. She tried to keep the small talk going, but Biden didn’t seem to notice—or care—that he hadn’t let go. The entire exchange was caught on camera, and it didn’t take long before social media picked up on just how awkward it was.

Not the First Time

If the scene felt familiar, that’s because it is. Biden has had more than a few moments like this over the years. Just last year, he went viral after whispering in a senator’s daughter’s ear and leaning in for a kiss—only for her to pull away at the last second.

Biden is known for being warm, approachable, and physical in his greetings, but these moments continue to spark conversations about personal space, boundaries, and what crosses the line—especially when cameras are rolling.

Social Media Reacts

As expected, the internet didn’t hold back. Some users found the clip funny and harmless. Others called it uncomfortable and wondered if Biden realizes when a friendly gesture goes too far. One thing’s for sure: the hug may have been meant as a warm welcome, but it’s now yet another viral moment in Biden’s long list of eyebrow-raising interactions
