Took them a while and apparently some deep investigating, but it appears the AP finally figured out something:

I personally think the entire Brandon thing is juvenile as hell and frankly a little chickenshit. If someone is so outraged, why not have the balls to say it out loud, Fuck you Biden, rather than some weak ass taunt to hide behind. Typical.

You do realize its a play on for Fuck Joe Biden when nascar tried covering the hate up by saying listen to the crowd chanting “Lets go Brandon.”


I think its perfect for how the media has been covering up for Biden all this time when Biden has bene slipping since day 1.

Lets Go Brandon!

That was my point chief, I know what it means and how it came about. It's still a sophomoric and chickshit way of saying it...

Sure it's silly. But you can't walk up and down the street saying FJB. You can't sit in a restaurant and say FJB during a conversation.
The Brandon chant is a way to express your feelings without getting locked up.

And going along with what SouthEast said, that reporter knew exactly what the crowd was saying.
He obviously couldn't tell the audience at home what the crowd that was almost drowning him out was really chanting.
So he came up with something that sounded like it. Hats off to him for quick thinking.

It was a she, and I don't think she had a clue.
New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.

That's as much part of it as anything. For forum members on a 'broadcasting' website who should proportably understand something about what is and isn't acceptable to go out over the air, there sure are a lot of folks that don't grasp that fundamental issue. Too many dolts attempting to tie the crowd's boorish behavior with some left wing media censorship issue. Maybe they need to look to themselves and ask if they blurted out "Fuck Joe Biden" at their place of employment, how would that play out?

I don't think the reporter knew what the crowd was chanting (I think she genuinely thought they were chanting "Let's Go Brandon" ), and that's half of the joke of people who now chant this. As much as it is a statement against Joe Biden, it is ALSO poking fun at the out-of-touch media.

I haven't read anything in the New York Times or Washington post about this issue that seems to be consuming guys who drive rusty old pickup trucks.

I just assumed this was some story on the trash conservative news horizon.

Considering that's where you get all your "news", I'm not surprised.

It was on broadcast TV and I think she was quick on her feet trying to prevent a fine.

Saw it scrawled on the back of a UPS tractor trailer yesterday. I don’t care who you are or what side you are on. Politics does not come to work and it certainly doesn’t get scrawled around company equipment. Fire folks like that. Maybe I’m just old school.
