It’s okay, buddy. We aren’t losing him forever, he just can’t be the president anymore.

There was some talk of the good times, like President Obama’s epic mic drop moment.

This will no doubt go down as one of the most iconic moments of his presidential legacy.

But not all of the tears shed were in grief. Some were just moved by their own gratitude.

I wept tears of joy and hope the night we welcomed @BarackObama as our President. I wept tears of deep gratitude as we bid him farewell.

Because, as Obama once said, “There’s not a liberal America and a conservative America. There’s the United States of America.”

Celebs like Jaime Camil expressed how they will miss Obama in the coming years.

Farewell Mr. President, you'll be greatly missed @POTUS @BarackObama ?? #ObamaFarewell #farewellAddress @JoeBiden pic.twitter.com/EH4OqipD4D

Gina Rodriguez shared the same emotion but also gave Obama some nice words.

You will be missed. @POTUS Such an honorable gentleman that has led and served our country. Just in awe of his humility and excellence. ??

Perhaps she can write him a letter of recommendation for his future job search.

Of course, it is Twitter, so people had to draw comparisons between President Obama and Donald Trump.

I don't know if we've ever seen a country take such a dramatic step down in quality of leader as the one we're about to see. #ObamaFarewell

Dayum!

Some even took a shot at Obama’s own words about what is next for the country.

Clearly Jerry Springer couldn’t be left behind because, well, Jerry Springer.

#ObamaFarewell showed class, dignity, competence, and highlighted serious achievement…America at its best. Now Trump. Ouch!

Nobody does shade like Jerry Springer.

But Lin-Manuel Miranda summed up what so many Americans are thinking right now about President Barack Obama.

Thank you, @POTUS. https://t.co/oImv80Jv2N
