But as for all of it together, the bigger question is still unanswered: Why? If you happen to have seen a liberal on your timeline in the past few weeks tweeting #ThankYouBrandon to a president they are purporting to like and support, this is why.
This is political discourse in the Twitter era: A hashtag becomes annoying to a group of people, so they try to repurpose it, or replace it with an artificially juiced hashtag of their own. People who do like Joe Biden started fighting it on social media, as if the phrase were the latest and greatest threat to democracy, and social media were the place where great threats to democracy should be fought.
People who don’t like Joe Biden picked up “Let’s go, Brandon” and immediately ran the joke into the ground. Then it became a hashtag and a whole thing, which you may have heard about. I don’t even own a television, nor would I ever watch NBC Sports coverage of a NASCAR race, yet I still got the chance to see the October 2 clip of the reporter Kelli Stavast attempting to interview the race-car driver Brandon Brown after an unexpected victory while the crowd behind them chanted “Fuck Joe Biden.” “And you can hear the chants from the crowd,” Stavast narrated for the camera, before repeating what she seemed to think she was hearing: “Let’s go, Brandon.” As I would say after texting this link to someone in the middle of the workday: “LOL!” Here are some of the best reactions to Snoozy Cruz, who was nicknamed Senator Cancun yesterday by The Daily Show’s Trevor Noah.An underrated joy of modern life is that you don’t have to watch live TV to see all of the uncomfortable situations people find themselves in on live TV. Most agreed that he was dreaming about his failed vacation to Cancun in Mexico after pals of his leaked texts to The New York Times about their intentions to go away during a pandemic and while his constituents suffered through a deadly snowstorm that left them without power. This of course led to an outpouring of jokes about what he was dreaming about. However, one star of the show was none other than Texas Senator Ted Cruz, who was unusually silent, but it became evident to the internet that he had appeared to have nodded off to sleep.
