A viral tweet claims to show a video of President Joe Biden in London for Queen Elizabeth’s funeral being greeted by chants of “let’s go, Brandon,” a heckle of Biden popular on the right.
The video has been altered, with unrelated audio added to the clip. The original video was tweeted on September 19 by Joe Armitage, a political analyst and columnist for The Telegraph.
The video was also featured by The Daily Mail. Crowds in England did not greet Biden with the Brandon heckle.
