It was bound to happen eventually, but Joe Biden has made his first public appearance since he went on his preemptive pardon spree before leaving office in January.
Biden and his wife, Jill, made a high-profile return to the spotlight Sunday night, attending the star-studded opening of Broadway’s “Othello” — their first major public outing since leaving the White House.
No autopen was visible at the event.
“The 82-year-old former president was among the VIPs in attendance as two of Hollywood’s biggest stars, Denzel Washington and Jake Gyllenhaal, took to the stage in the timeless Shakespeare tragedy,” reports the New York Post. “Dressed in a black tuxedo, the 46th prez gave a quick wave as he hopped out of his motorcade and was ushered into the Barrymore Theatre in Midtown Manhattan ahead of the star-studded performance.”
