President-elect Joe Biden gave an emotional farewell address in Delaware on Tuesday, less than 24 hours before he’s set to be sworn in as the 46th president of the United States.

“To my fellow Delawareans, on behalf of the entire Biden family that’s here today, I want to express how much you mean to me and to every one of us,” Biden said, as he got personal talking about his family’s ties to the state for many years.

“It’s deeply personal that our next journey to Washington starts here, a place that defines the very best of who we are as Americans,” he continued. “I’ll always be a proud son of the state of Delaware.”

As Biden recalled the words of James Joyce, Biden teared up as he said, “When I die, Delaware will be written on my heart.”

Biden also got emotional as he spoke about his late son Beau Biden. as he spoke at the National Guard/Reserve Center named for Beau.

“Ladies and gentlemen, I only have one regret. He’s not here. Because we should be introducing him as president.”

He concluded, “But we have great opportunities. Delaware’s taught us anything’s possible.”

Huh. Learn something new every day.

I didn’t know the numerology for “Delaware” worked out to 5.56.

L O L...

Joe Biden just cant decide if his HOME IS in Scranton or in Delaware ...wondering which one he will chose for his final resting spot?

I have in laws with seasonal property in Delaware, have had it for 20 years, and said taxes are cheap, upkeep cheap, and people to look after it is cheap too...but are thinking now of selling, as MEDIA will be swamped there for the coming four years or more!!!...said they have taken over the water area since before the Election..and no longer restful or enjoyable...more sad days...

Neither Biden has ever impressed me and never will now...so we adjust and hope our NATION can survive...

“I’ll always be a proud son of the state of Delaware.”

I thought he was a son of Pennsylvania?

It seems to be a very strange thing to say. Likely that was the plan, years ago. Of course, they could still run Hunter, I suppose.

How sappy and vapid can one get!?

Isn’t he going to where he’s been the last 50 years - the swamp?

“Is that Cantonese or Mandarin?”

It is the same in writing.
The only difference is pre-1950 “Traditional” characters or post 1950 - Simplified

Maybe so. But China owns the rest of it.

I would have expected something simpler, like “See you soon”.

Would his train ride be on "AMTRAK One"?

"Right below “China”."

Well, in fairness, it's "China, Inc., a Delaware for-profit corporation."

It’s like he thinks he is moving across the country and won’t be able to make the long trip back?

Does he even know he’ll be dead within two months?
