US President Joe Biden’s (81) social media team used the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl victory to parody a right-wing conspiracy theory. After the most important football match of the year was decided on Sunday evening, a photo montage appeared on the Democrat’s personal X account showing him smiling against a black background – with eyes from which red lasers shoot. The montage is a meme that has been circulating the internet for a while now known as “Dark Brandon.” The post mockingly read: “Just as we planned.”
Biden’s team was referring to a conspiracy theory widespread in right-wing circles that has to do with superstar Taylor Swift (34), her boyfriend Travis Kelce (34) of the Kansas City Chiefs and the claim that his team’s victory was a set-up. . The relationship between the two has received a lot of attention lately, also because the 34-year-old was present at Kelce’s team’s games and all eyes were on the couple. Republicans worried that Swift could use her presence at the Super Bowl to campaign for Biden and his Democrats.
Biden’s social media team goes on the campaign offensive
Swift was seen several times on Sunday jumping up and down in the stands, cheering on her friend’s triumph and later kissing Kelce on the lawn. However, she did not make a political statement.
Biden, who wants to defend his office in the upcoming US presidential elections, has recently lost support, especially among young people, over his course in the war in the Middle East. The New York Times recently reported that his team began talking to celebrities and influencers about possible support on social media. Also on Sunday, Biden’s campaign team published a video on Tiktok for the first time. The account’s profile photo: “Dark Brandon.” (SDA)
