Closeness and guardedness define Hillary Clinton’s public persona. In contrast to her husband, Bill Clinton, and other Presidents like Barack Obama and Donald Trump, Hillary often appears reserved in public. Rooted in her modest middle-class upbringing, she is fiercely protective of her family, as evidenced by her unwavering support of her husband during the scandals involving his extramarital affairs in the 1990s.
But who is Hillary Clinton when she drops her guard and the cameras are not watching?
Joe Biden’s extended and somewhat awkward hug with Hillary Clinton
When Hillary Clinton waited to meet Joe Biden in Scranton, she certainly didn’t expect such a warm welcome.
Biden enveloped Hillary in a prolonged and somewhat awkward hug. The video of the moment quickly went viral. In the video, Clinton appears visibly uncomfortable, gently slapping Biden on the arm, possibly as a signal for him to release her, but he continues to hold her by the waist.
