Hollywood legend Roseanne Barr caught President Joe Biden gloating over former President Donald Trump’s indictment. Right before special counsel Jack Smith hit Trump with four more charges, Biden’s team released an ad promoting ‘Dark Brandon.’
Dark Brandon is how the left fought back after the ‘Let’s go Brandon’ chant went viral.
According to Vox, The meme caught the public’s attention at a moment when the real Biden was riding a string of policy wins. Biden’s achievements, combined with the public’s hunger for a refreshing source of leftist inspiration, made the figurative Dark Brandon an irresistible memetic superhero.
According to Axios: “A few hours before Donald Trump was arraigned Thursday, Joe Biden’s campaign posted a cheeky video of the president drinking coffee from a mug featuring a photo of him with laser eyes — a common illustration for the meme known as “Dark Brandon.”
“I like my coffee dark,” Biden says after taking a sip.
The campaign is selling ‘Dark Brandon’ merchandise.
Campaign spokesperson TJ Ducklo said: “All we’re saying is that if you’re MAGA extremists, Vladimir Putin, the post-COVID economic collapse, climate change, a crumbling bridge, or our grassroots fundraising goals: You better watch out, Jack.”
At the White House Correspondents’ Dinner this year, Biden introduced a comedian by putting on his sunglasses and saying: “I’m going to be fine with your jokes, but I’m not sure about Dark Brandon.”
Enter Roseanne Barr who silenced Joe and his team:
“Do you get 10% of all sales for this too?”
Trump was indicted on four criminal counts:
Count 1: 18 U.S.C. § 371 (Conspiracy to Defraud the United States)
Count 2: 18 U.S. C. § 1512(k) (Conspiracy to Obstruct an Official Proceeding)
Count 3: 18 U.S.C. §§ 1512(c)(2), 2 (Obstruction of and Attempt to Obstruct an Official Proceeding)
Count 4: 18 U.S.C. § 241 (Conspiracy Against Rights)
Do you get 10% of all sales for this too?
