He may no longer sit in the Oval Office, but Joe Biden just proved he’s not done making waves. At a recent conference in Chicago, the former president took the mic — and didn’t hold back when it came to his successor.
Biden’s first speech
Joe Biden and Donald Trump have clashed more than once over the years — and it’s no secret there’s no love lost between the two, especially when it comes to their visions for America.
While Trump charges ahead like a bulldozer in the White House — grabbing headlines over global tariffs — there’s been a lot more happening the past months. From Elon Musk’s surprising appointment as the face of DOGE to major cuts in university funding and efforts to downsize the federal workforce, the current administration has been pushing through sweeping changes on multiple fronts.
And one person who clearly has thoughts about all this — and isn’t shy about sharing them — is former President Joe Biden.
On Tuesday, Biden stepped on stage at the Advocates, Counselors and Representatives for the Disabled conference in Chicago. The 82-year-old spoke warmly about his childhood and family before shifting to what he called “an issue that’s front and center for millions of Americans”: Social Security.
