No More Malarkey: The Day of Dark Brandon

An organically created meme is taking over social media, riding a wave of Joe Biden’s successes over recent weeks, and I’m totally here for it.

Don’t believe it? Just ask Ayman al-Zawahiri.

More later – I’ll be on the road most of today.

The “Dark Brandon” meme is probably one of the most organic and effect repurposing of a negative slogan I’ve seen in a long time.

Wait, did Dark Brandon just deliver in the span of 1 week: a massive reconciliation bill, CHIPS bill, Veterans bill, elimination of the Al Qaeda leader, longest stretch of plummeting gas prices, AND a red hot jobs report?

The funniest thing about Dark Brandon is that the meme was originally invented by Chinese propaganda cartoonists. pic.twitter.com/Ouj8UV9evu

Dark Brandon is having a good week.

– Jobs up
– Unemployment down
– Gas prices down
– Getting Manchin and Sinema to agree on SOMETHING
– Got the Al Qaeda guy
– Even shamed Republicans into helping veterans (Jon Stewart definitely helped!) pic.twitter.com/LesAWTByFs

Sen. Chris Coons tells @MSNBC that President Biden called to thank the Senate cloakroom staff, who'd been working all night.
