US President Joe Biden’s social media team is using the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl victory to parody a right-wing conspiracy theory. After the race of the year was decided on Sunday evening, a photo montage appeared on Biden’s Democrat’s
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 referenced a conspiracy theory widespread in right-wing circles involving superstar Taylor Swift and her boyfriend Travis Kelce of the Kansas City Chiefs, and the claim has to do with his team’s victory being a setup .
The relationship between the two has received a lot of attention lately, also because the 34-year-old was present at Kelce’s team games and then 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.
Not a political statement from Taylor Swift
Swift was seen several times on Sunday jumping up and down in the stands, cheering on her boyfriend’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.”
