Biden Won’t Let Go of Hillary During Awkward Hug

Vice President Joe Biden wouldn’t let go of Hillary Clinton’s waist for a lengthy amount of time, about 18 seconds, during his greeting hug before their joint campaign appearance in Pennsylvania.

The two, who are former political rivals and were known to have a frosty relationship within the Obama administration, are campaigning in Scranton on Monday.

Clinton appeared ready for the hug to be over a few times, patting him on the arm while Biden kept talking to her.

Biden is known for his awkward interactions with women.
