President Joe Biden had conspiracy theorists in a tizzy after posting what appeared to be his reaction to the Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl win on Sunday night.

“Just like we drew it up,” Biden posted on X alongside a photo of “Dark Brandon,” the meme created by hardcore—and very online—supporters of Donald Trump that Biden and his team loved so much they adopted it as their own.

The post was apparently referencing far-right conspiracy theories which posit the NFL and high-level government operatives conspired to rig the Super Bowl in Kansas City’s favor to give maximum exposure to a yet-to-be-announced endorsement from Chiefs star Travis Kelce and his girlfriend Taylor Swift.

    Hey, I want AOC to run, but until then I’m not going to discourage people from voting for the only candidate who’s not going to piledrive the US headfirst into the dirt.

    So again, drop the act. Yeah you want a better candidate than Biden, great; that’s not the choice. The choice is Biden or Trump. If you don’t vote for Biden, your voting for Trump. If you don’t believe that fine, stop reading; if you do, there’s nothing more to say anyway.
