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.

    It generally does, yes. Weirdly, the whole “believe what I say even though I showed you the exact opposite thing” isn’t especially convincing as arguments go.

        The Biden Administration that explicitly said things aren’t going well in the link you provided for me to “prove” that Biden said the opposite of that? Yes, they are doing that well.

        I love how you are just pretending your link didn’t contradict you. It’s pretty damn funny.
