GQ's "Fantasy" Biden Shoot Gives Twitter Nightmares

Obviously, the COVID-19 pandemic has made the traditional media pageantry that usually comes with a new President difficult, but apparently, not being in the same room with Joe Biden was no obstacle for GQ UK, who yesterday published four photoshopped pictures of Biden in Americana getups as part of a "fantasy makeover" photoshoot.

These eerily uncanny pictures of President Biden come from a fawning GQ piece that features plenty of jabs at former President Donald Trump and his penchant for ill-fitting suits. They write:

"In a bid to celebrate the new president’s excellent way with pants, sweaters and sneakers – but also the fact that we no longer need to look at the giant orange buffoon in his two-legged body bags day in, day out – we thought we’d give Biden the all-American makeover of his (but really our) dreams."

What follows is four handsomely modeled fashion images with Biden's head slapped on the model. Each one is uniquely unsettling, from the Hamptons Biden drinking an iced-latte from Starbucks to the golfing Biden who has a big ol' bulge.

Twitter users took notice, and were, in a word, unenthused.

That Joe Biden GQ article nearly put me on my deathbed, I thought that shit was real for a second

all the joe biden gq photos look like promo for a fun-for-the-whole-family netflix original where a goofy but well meaning dad enters a contest and wins a chance to become the president of the united states

Don't let anyone tell you your subtly horny fan art can't get you anywhere in life, kids. Play your cards right, and you might just get on the cover of a prestigious global magazine.
