‘It’s Really Jover’: Lil Nas X, Cardi B, Mark Hamill And More Celebs React To Joe Biden Dropping Out Of Presidential Race

Celebrity reactions to President Biden’s announcement

George Takei, famously recognized for his Star Trek character, commended Biden’s action regarding X (previously Twitter). In his post, he expressed his respect for our president, Joe Biden. With a long history of dedicated service to our nation, Biden is considered a good, ethical man, an accomplished president, and a devoted patriot. He further urged, “Let us now come together behind Kamala Harris and defeat Donald Trump in November.”

Lil Nas X wrote on Biden’s Instagram post, “Wow It’s really over,” capturing the sentiment of many.

Here are some other celebrity reactions:

I, as an ardent fan of John Legend, couldn’t help but be thrilled when I saw him expressing his support for President Biden and Vice President Harris on Instagram. In my opinion, Joe Biden’s first term has been the most remarkable period of genuine progress I’ve witnessed in my lifetime. I am deeply grateful for his grace and patriotism in putting the country before himself by stepping down to make way for a new leadership.

Barack Obama, a previous US president, spoke about X, acknowledging Biden’s impact. “Joe Biden has left a significant mark on America’s history and is not only a cherished friend and collaborator for me but also a true American patriot.”

Mark Hamill, famously recognized for his part in Star Wars, expressed admiration for President Biden. In his own words, Hamill highlighted how Biden has achieved more than any other president during our lifetime. He emphasized that Biden brought back trustworthiness, respectability, and moral fiber to the White House following a tumultuous four-year tenure marked by deceit, misconduct, and disorder.

Barbra Streisand showed appreciation for X, acknowledging Joe Biden’s achievements during his presidency. She believed that history would remember him as a leader who made a substantial impact in just four years. Additionally, she emphasized the importance of being thankful for his commitment to upholding our democratic values.

Some reactions were mixed, with Cher voicing concerns about the Democrats’ prospects without Joe Biden. She shared her inner turmoil, admitting that she has deep affection for Biden since their 2008 encounter but is uncertain if the Democrats can secure the presidency with “President Biden” or “Joe.” Despite her past support and belief in it being his time to lead, she expressed doubts about handing over the mantle.

As someone who closely follows American politics, I strongly believe that Dave Portnoy’s recent video critique of Kamala Harris’ nomination process raises valid concerns. Based on my observation and analysis, it seems unlikely that Harris would have been the Democratic Party’s nominee if Joe Biden had not dropped out before the primaries and instead faced off against other candidates.

Cardi B enthusiastically endorsed Harris as a potential Democratic nominee on X, exclaiming, “Hehehehe, let’s goooo! I told you all that Kamala was supposed to run in 2024…Stop messing with me!!!”

Ariana Grande expressed her backing by reposting Biden’s endorsement of Kamala Harris on her Instagram Story, including a registration-to-vote link.

Jamie Lee Curtis openly showed her approval for Joe Biden’s choice to resign and Kamala Harris as his running mate on Instagram. She explicitly declared her commitment to Biden and his departure, while also wholeheartedly backing Harris. She described Harris as dependable and proven, highlighting her advocacy for women’s rights and racial equality. Her message, according to Curtis, is one of optimism and unity for America during this period of deep national discord.
