Well said.

Respect for his service but his presidency left much to be desired.

It did.

Regardless. He was a President that served his nation from WW2 to the Oval. Even if we didn’t agree with his policies..he will never be an Obama who tried to destroy our fabric as America. https://t.co/uQiQMaBD4D

As of the time this writer is working on this piece, 4:19 pm CST, the Joe Biden X account has not issued a statement.

Shameful, really.

Very classy statement from Former President Trump.
HOWEVER.
It's PATHETIC that a former President puts out a statement about a POTUS before the ACTING President & Vice President who are SUPPOSEDLY STILL ON THE JOB.
WHO IS RUNNING THIS COUNTRY RIGHT NOW?! https://t.co/kRXZw7h9sK
