There's an old saying about the nation's capital (origin somewhat murky) — "If you want a friend in Washington, get a dog." But if you're President Obama, your Washington friend is your own vice president. President Obama and Vice President Biden have long been open about their friendship and respect for one another, so much so that the POTUS bromance has come to be known as a "BROTUS." And it's been memed.

In June, President Obama made a video where he went through tasks that required more time than registering to vote. One of his projects? Making a friendship bracelet for Joe Biden. Biden later tweeted a photo of the bracelet for his friend's birthday.
The pair also made a joint video where they did a lap around the White House as part of the first lady's Let's Move campaign.
