(The Hill) – The phrase “Let’s Go Brandon” started off as a dig at President Biden that spread quickly online and became a political slogan adopted by the president’s critics on the right, including former President Trump.
The phrase became popular among Trump’s base after a reporter interviewing NASCAR driver Brandon Brown mistakenly interpreted the crowd’s background chanting of “f— Joe Biden” as “Let’s Go Brandon.”
But recently, the use of the phrase has shown signs of shifting.
The precursors to the “Dark Brandon” meme first started to make the rounds online shortly after Biden was elected, when a Chinese illustrator attempted to make unflattering images of the president, according to Politico.
But on Sunday, some of those images started to gain popularity on Twitter when they were co-opted as part of the more complimentary “Dark Brandon” meme.

just a lame attempt by the left to turn “lets go Brandon” into a positive.

I assumed it was because of Dark MAGA.

For the Left: Badass Brandon.
For the Right: Evil Brandon.
"... hardcore Trump supporters “blow their tops” when eccentric online attacks are co-opted ..."
Haha! Talk about projection.

“Dork Biden,” is more like it.
His being elected to ANY office, in this fair land, is an absolute travesty of sense and/or justice!
He is a faux belligerent, always making the threat, but never “taking the guy out back!”
He would not be a member of my or any other fraternity or circles of one’s friends. He is an A$$HOLE!

Somewhere in DC there’s a focus group full of pasty-faced Dem party dorks who are high-fiving one another. “Yeah, man, just like the cool kids on the Internet do!” Self-parody is so cruel...

When I first heard about this, I was thinking “Dim Brandon”, but I like “Dork Brandon” better. Let’s hope it catches on.
To: Baladas
It’s a pathetic attempt to flip the narrative about this hapless sack of monkeysh*t and portray him as a cool robot.
In reality, it’s more like this:
