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.

    Me, I’m just blocking and moving on. I’ve seen enough of the Macedonian Contractor Troll Farm pablum. They’re in every politics thread now.

    And just like the highly suspicious stop oil protests that inexplicably target museums, I don’t disagree with some of their points at all but the way they’re being complete fucking idiots about it means we’re done here.

      Damn those Macedonian trolls must be working overtime to hijack polls to put Biden’s approval 17 points underwater and put him 5 points behind Trump.

      Apparently 86% of Americans are Macedonian trolls who think Biden is too old to serve a second term.

      All these Macedonian trolls that barely trust Biden more on climate change, gun violence, and abortion than trust neither Trump nor Biden.
