What Does Brandon Mean In Politics?
As we enter a new election season coming up in November with the midterm cycle, some people may be wondering what does Brandon mean in politics.
The meaning of “Brandon” in politics is a reference to President Joe Biden. This nickname has become a political slogan and internet meme using references such as “Let’s Go Brandon” as a substituted phrase for “Fuck Joe Biden”.
Chants of “Fuck Joe Biden” began during sporting events in early September. On October 2, 2021, during an interview of the Sparks 300 race winner Brandon Brown at Talladega Superspeedway, NBC Sports reporter Kelli Stavast incorrectly described the chant in the background as “Let’s Go Brandon.” which sparked the meme.
“Let’s Go Brandon” is a phrase used by some Republican politicians and critics of Joe Biden. The phrase then spread to popular culture, which included the song “Let’s Go Brandon” by rap artist Loza Alexander which hit the top of the music charts. The chant has been heard in football and baseball stadiums as well as citizens protesting their disappointment in the current administrations policies and the direction of the country.
