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.

    and how would cramming a bunch of homeless people on an aircraft carrier help them? it’s not really designed to house civilians. and what would they do for work? there’s not exactly a transit system to get them to and from jobs, medical appointments, necessary social services, etc. They’d be stuck on the ship.

    you should look into what life on an active naval vessel is like-- it’s not exactly conducive to either civilian life nor to taking care of a bunch of homeless people who have complex social, psychological, and medical needs. this wouldn’t solve any problems and owuld create a lot of new ones-- not to mention that we need those aircraft carriers.
