This love-in in the city of love was hard to miss.
Outgoing first lady Jill Biden and President-elect Donald Trump displayed a rare cross-partisan friendship in Paris during the reopening of Notre Dame Cathedral.
The exchange delighted the MAGA world and sparked frenzied speculation.
Biden and Trump shared a moment captured on camera as they waited for French First Lady Brigitte Macron to take their seats at a distance from each other at the reopening ceremony.
On Sunday, President Trump capitalized on the enthusiasm and promoted his Cologne line, using a photo of himself and Jill Biden that set social media abuzz.
The caption for his cologne read, “A scent that the enemy can’t resist,” and read, “Fight, fight, fight.”
It’s unclear what was said between the two, but internet commenters offered several theories that Jill had become close friends with the president-elect.
Despite her harsh words against Trump, 78, and scathing attacks on her husband in the past, some users believe she is ultimately endorsing the president-elect in the 2024 race. I theorized that it might be.
“I just want to find someone who sees me the way Jill Biden sees Trump,” user Drefanzor Memes posted on X.
“Jill Biden seems to be in love with Boss Trump. 100% confirmed that she voted for Trump!” user AJ Huber wrote on X.
“She voted for him. It’s scientifically proven,” Bonchy chided.
“Look at how quickly everyone warmed to the ‘fascist dictator’ Donald Trump. Even Dr. Jill Biden can’t resist this world-class appeal,” said Kyle Becker, a self-proclaimed independent journalist.
User Joanne_Lopez_Dow said, “I’ve never seen Jill look at Joe the way she looks at President Trump.”
“Mr. Steal her. No, I’m pretty sure she voted for him,” user Geiger Capital said in a jab.
“‘Thank you for voting for me,'” said podcaster Alan Cornett, reflecting on how the conversation between the two went.
Many of those users focused on a photo in which Jill Biden appears to be looking approvingly at Trump.
Shortly after President Biden withdrew from the race in July, MAGA followers openly theorized that the Biden family was not actually supporting Joe’s handpicked successor, Vice President Kamala Harris. .
Last September, on the 23rd anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, the lame duck president was caught wearing a Trump hat while mingling with firefighters in Shanksville, Pennsylvania.
On voting day, Jill Biden was spotted wearing bright red, fueling further speculation on social media.
And after the election, President Biden appeared surprisingly jubilant at the White House, acknowledging his rival’s victory.
During his visit to Paris, President Trump met with French President Emmanuel Macron and offered a “power grab” handshake. He also met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Britain’s Prince William.
This trip was his first overseas trip since winning the November 5 election.
