A video capturing President Joe Biden’s side profile, showcasing wrinkles around his neck and chin, has sparked a wave of conspiracy theories suggesting the use of a body double.
The footage, which went viral on social media platforms, ignited a frenzy of speculation, particularly among supporters of former President Donald Trump.
In the blurry clip, wrinkles on Biden’s neck and chin are visible, prompting some to assert that the individual in the video is not the genuine president but rather an imposter wearing a mask resembling Biden’s likeness.
Trump supporters seized upon the footage, claiming it as evidence of a larger deception.
The debate over Biden’s appearance erupted on social media, with users on platforms like X, formerly Twitter, expressing skepticism and advancing unfounded theories.
One user remarked: “So far I’ve seen possibly five different actors playing Joe,” while another asserted: “That’s not the real Joe; it’s a mask playing Joe Biden.”
Another user also tweeted: “I think that’s a body double…the walk is too secure and natural, the handshake is that of a much younger (healthier) man. We’ve seen the real Biden stumbling, fumbling, unaware of his surroundings….this is NOT him.”
As of now, there has been no official evidence of Biden having a body double.
The speculation comes amid ongoing scrutiny of Biden’s age and health since taking office. Critics have questioned whether the 81-year-old president is physically fit for a second term, with concerns exacerbated by reports of cognitive decline.
A recent special counsel investigation further fueled speculation about Biden’s competence, as highly classified documents relevant to current antional security thrreats were found in the President’s basement.
Trump, who remains a prominent figure within the Republican Party, has intensified his criticism of Biden, particularly regarding the special counsel report’s findings. While Trump faces his own legal challenges, he continues to rally support among his base and is expected to play a significant role in shaping the political landscape leading up to the next election cycle.
