About

President Joe Biden Pooping Himself At Normandy Allegations refers to a viral debate and video in which some, largely right-wing commentators online, interpreted a video clip of President Joe Biden briefly crouching down before finding his way to a chair at an official speech in Normandy, France for the anniversary of D-Day in 2024 as the President soiling himself. Users argued that Biden was pooping his pants during the moment in question, but later footage of the video appeared to show that he attempted to sit down before his wife, French President Emmanuel Macron, and Macron's wife Brigitte sat down, as he then did sit down a moment later at the same time as the others onstage with him.

Origin

On June 6th, 2024, President Joe Biden appeared alongside the Macrons at a ceremony to honor the anniversary of the D-Day invasion and American service members who participated in the liberation of France during World War II. An edited clip of Biden during the ceremony was posted by the Republican National Committee Research account, a campaign organization related to the GOP, calling it, "Awkward." The post (seen below) earned over 6,500 likes and 3,300 reposts in the course of 10 hours on June 6th.^[1]

Despite claims and comments from numerous users following the post, it does not appear that Biden actually pooped his pants, since he delivered a full speech subsequent to the moment shown in the video. Also, in the seconds directly following where the RNC Research account cut the footage, Biden does find the chair behind him and sits down along with his wife and the Macrons (seen below).^[2]

Spread

Shortly after the scene was spread online on June 6th, 2024, many right-wing commentators reposed the video or commented on the post by the RNC, interpreting it as President Biden having a bathroom-related incident due to his movements. For example, X / Twitter user @RubinReport was among the first to comment, just half an hour after the RNC post, earning 15,000 likes in 10 hours (seen below) for asking whether Biden was "pooping" or looking for a chair.^[3]

Also that same day, political commentator and podcaster Tim Pool was more forthright in declaring that Biden had supposedly pooped himself in a repost from the Daily Caller account (seen below), receiving over 37,000 likes in nine hours.^[4]

Later on June 6th, 2024, X user @realsnoopbailey observed the topic trending on X alongside others and posted a screenshot commenting on that, earning over 1,200 likes in six hours (shown below).^[5]

Do the Biden

Do the Biden is a purported dance trend inspired by the video of U.S. President Joe Biden allegedly defecating in his pants while at a 2024 event recognizing the anniversary of D-Day. The trend has one person filming say to another, "Do the Biden," followed by the participant half-squatting, mimicking the pose that Biden struck at the Normandy event that some people alleged was him soiling himself. Videos of people taking part in the trend began to spread online in early June 2024.
