Joe Biden is still reeling from the unexpected kindness in a handwritten letter Donald Trump sent back in 2021. The New York Times obtained a copy for Biden's memoir and it turned out to be written in black Sharpie with a surprisingly warm tone that left him stunned given their fierce political rivalry. During a White House meeting in 2024, Trump reportedly told him straight up, "You know, Joe, if it weren't for politics, I believe we'd be good friends." The full text of that letter is included in the source material for anyone who wants to see exactly what was said.
