Quote:SIOUX FALLS—“Let’s Go Brandon,” the anti-Joe Biden catchphrase that has made waves this holiday season—as highlighted by an ex-cop uttering it directly to the president—is now officially in roadside prank territory.An electronic road sign in Dell Rapids, South Dakota, a town of 3,600 people about 20 miles north of Sioux Falls, has been displaying the message in recent days.
“Let’s Go Brandon FJB,” it stated, the last three letters abandoning any pretense that the phrase means something other than “Fuck Joe Biden!”
Let’s Go Brandon has become a treasured bit of conservative code in recent months. It started at a NASCAR race at the Talladega Superspeedway in Alabama on Oct. 2. As a reporter tried to interview the winning driver, Brandon Brown, some attendees started to cheer “Fuck Joe Biden” on live TV. The reporter suggested they were saying, “Let’s go, Brandon.”
Soon, Republicans in and out of public life embraced and repeated it. An Oregon man and ex-police officer even used the phrase during a phone call with President Biden and First Lady Jill Biden on Christmas Eve.
“Merry Christmas, and let’s go, Brandon!”Jared Schmeck said during the call, one of many the Bidens did. Jill Biden seemed to wince, but the president moved on, asking him if he was from Oregon.
SNIIP!
Really? That’s what Biden did? He moved on and asked him if he was from Oregon?
Biden didn’t repeat, “Let’s Go Brandon,” in essence saying to go fuck himself?
I guess “Are you from Oregon?” can be the new “code”, a code that means the media can go fuck themselves.
