Critics slammed the segment as a low point in "modern American political discourse" while some suggested that The Late Show might have inadvertently cast Biden in a villainous light.

I'm not sure Biden has ever opened a laptop, never mind keyed in on memes, so it was probably his unpaid failson interns
It's definitely his team publishing it, but it's official merchandise sold on his campaign website and he drinks out of it to advertise it: https://shop.joebiden.com/dark-roast-mug/
Biden isn't aware of a lot of things- person, place, time- but he definitely knows about Dark Brandon and personally uses it as a publicity thing.
Yikes
I made sure to archive it for future genocide scholars to confirm that indeed he is selling this mug as of 24 May, 2024 when Israel is invading Rafah.
Have you noticed that our mugs have got little pictures of a ghoul with lasers coming out of his eyes on them...? Hans... Are we the baddies?
I love how Biden's official website is just a merch shop and begging for donations, and literally nothing about his actual policies.
HOOOOWWWW does this asshole still not have a single issue or policy listed on his campaign website?! Like, not even anything about first term accomplishments. Not even some vague building back better bullshit. Not even anything promoting his own fucking party which he's the leader of. It's ridiculous.
Meanwhile Trump's website has a full spread, including a "mission" page and two types of issues pages, plus a "news" page where some of the "stories" are just dunks on Brandon.

I appreciate that the 404 screen if you do manually search for issues is Dark Brandon trying to sell you a t-shirt.
The "if this were Trump doing this" thing is touching the Earth's inner core at this point but we'd never hear the end of it if he were the one with nothing but donation links and a merch shop on his website.
