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.

    the image didn’t populate in mastodon, but i checked it and it doesn’t say what you are claiming it said.

      This is the weirdest gaslighting ever.

              Yeah, I’m totally gaslighting by pasting an image of exactly what you said to prove that you said it. That’s the very definition of gaslighting.

                claiming the image says one thing when it says another is a pretty bizarre attempt at gaslighting.

                  Good thing I didn’t do that.

                  But I’m sure you’ll continue to gaslight and say I did.
