On a festive Wednesday night, the White House hosted a Halloween trick-or-treat event where President Joe Biden interacted with families in a lighthearted manner. As part of the celebration, Biden pretended to nibble on a baby dressed in a chicken costume, a moment that was both captured on camera and met with mixed reactions online.
The 81-year-old president was photographed leaning in to “chomp” on the baby’s leg as the iconic “Jaws” theme played in the background, adding a humorous twist to the evening. The child’s mother seemed unbothered by the playful gesture, and the baby appeared to enjoy the attention, giggling as Biden pretended to nibble on their thigh.

On the same evening, former President Donald Trump staged his own Halloween-inspired event by arriving at a Wisconsin rally in a “MAGA garbage truck.” Donning an orange safety vest, Trump joked with reporters, “How do you like my garbage truck? It’s in honor of Kamala and Joe Biden,” poking fun at his political opponents.
The contrasting scenes of the two political figures set social media abuzz. Right-wing commentator Nick Sorter tweeted, “President Trump is mingling with garbage men at his rally in Wisconsin. Meanwhile, Joe Biden is literally BITING BABIES at the White House Halloween Party. WTF IS THIS TIMELINE?” Others, like Steve Krakauer from the Megyn Kelly Show, humorously remarked, “Joe Biden bites a baby. And 2024 is complete…”
Several netizens drew comparisons to past incidents involving Biden’s dog, Major, who reportedly bit several people while living at the White House. One quipped, “Maybe Major learned it from his owner,” referring to the president’s playful Halloween antics.
