Vice President Joe Biden turned 74 on Sunday and President Obama took a break from his last international tour [1] to send a birthday message to his BFF on Twitter:

Happy birthday, Joe! The best @VP [2] and friend I could have had alongside me these past eight years. pic.twitter.com/kWH3L5uSFC [3]

Obama's message calling him the "best VP and friend" he could have had over the last eight years alongside a photo of them embracing in the Oval Office has gotten more than 92,000 retweets and 247,000 "likes." The duo is known for their close friendship, but their relationship has gotten even more attention lately thanks to the hilarious memes about how they're handling the news [5] about Donald Trump being president-elect.
