These throwback photos of Barack Obama and Joe Biden are giving people hope

Updated

The internet reserves a special level of frenzy for anything that involves Barack Obama or Joe Biden individually, but there seems to be something about the bromance between the two that many hold even more dear.

And apparently it's no different for the two former White House officials when throwback photos are thrown into the mix.

On Monday, Reddit revived two old photographs from Obama and Biden's childhood. The first photo shows a young, grinning Obama with two front teeth missing in a plaid button up. The second, a photo of a fresh-faced Biden with a slicked side part, suited up.

The side-by-side photos also inspired comparison between Obama and U.S. President Donald Trump. "Obama was America's dad. Trump is America's mom's abusive boyfriend," one disappointed Reddit user wrote.

Another referred to Trump in spirit as the would-be "local bully."

Though an age hasn't been confirmed for Obama yet in his picture, Biden is 10 years old in the photo taken, The Daily Herald reported.
