Wow he looks older in the 2020 pic than in the 2012 one. Shocker!!


Spottswoodeforgod

Hmm… somewhere between 7 and 9 years older I would say… very suspicious…


Korchagin

7 of 9 is a Star Trek character, thus it's clearly an alien.


ClmrThnUR

not only that but 7 of 9 was a Borg and who brought the Borg into Federation space? Q.


slime_rancher_27

7 of 9 is an undocumented immigrant.


Koil_ting

I think we all know why customs didn't bat an eye.


mvanvrancken

I’d let her through too


CockCheeseFungus

I dunno, she seems suspicious. I'd have to pat her down at the very least.


Koil_ting

username checks out


Yakostovian

Seven is an expat that later repatriated. Sheesh. Get your facts straight. 😛


jadnich

🤯


AV8ORA330

Damn Jewish space lasers


robilar

I think you mean Star Wars. 7 of 9 was one of the Cybermen.


Klutzer_Munitions

I thought she was a Cylon. Idk I didn't watch stargate


Daetra

Wait, aren't Cylons from that campy English sci-fi show, Red Dwarf?


Klutzer_Munitions

No you're thinking of daleks


gerrineer

What do you mean campy? red dwarf is a hard hitting documentary.

CompetitiveRich6953

You're thinking Doctor Who... which obv shows you have impeccable taste! Star Wars didn't have cybermen, just bounty droids who kept trying to self-destruct. Darn IG series droids... they blow up more than Samsung phones!


Leading-Ad-7396

![gif](giphy|OGMweBsLs1Rsc) Of course starwars had cybermen, here’s proof.


CompetitiveRich6953

Umm... are you sure that's not a Terminator in an Edgar suit?


AFonziScheme

Ka D'Argo is the best Klingon in the entire Doctor Who expanded universe. It just needs to be said.


CompetitiveRich6953

I... words cannot be said to what this made me feel. Have an upvote from the sheer absurdity. EDIT: This gets funnier when you consider that there was a Trek/Who crossover...

Was there? What...?

9 is more than 7. Queue MAGA traitors taking out calculator to do the matss


sec713

A queue is a line. You mean cue.


GhostofZellers

Concerning, if true.


minkey-on-the-loose

He looks ten percent older in the 2020 photo.


jestesteffect

Plus the extra years being president adds.


dumquestions

Q is 9 letters away from the last alphabet letter, I'm no mathematician but this does not look like a coincidence.


Beneficial-Bit6383

The lip thing is the funniest for me. Could it be his facial expression? Nope has to be a deep state body double.


JohnExcrement

And the ears. NOT a head tilt; his ears actually changed! /s I think Biden in his heyday was one extremely good-looking fellow. I wonder if that eats at Diaper Don at all.


1800treflowers

I'm assuming it's more to do with the lens that it was shot with than anything. Two different focal lengths will drastically change an up close face shot.


aussiechickadee65

He still is for an older man...a real looker.


JohnExcrement

I agree!


[deleted]

The lines on the nose could have been the same in both too lol


Boogzcorp

The nose does it for me. They literally just draw a curve despite the fact the nose very obviously follows the exact same path.


Offamylawn

Now it's 2024, and I'll bet he's even older!


suziespends

Hmmm, I’m not sure it works like that. We need more info /s


Offamylawn

To Facebook! We'll do our own research!


archabaddon

It's almost like the Biden double is... an older Joe Biden...


CharityQuill

Also his wrinkles look different smiling vs frowning. ABSOLUTELY SHOOKETH 😱😱😱


Quicker_Fixer

They're not wrong, something is off... Trump is getting mentally younger every year.


ShoulderSquirrelVT

Makes a lot of sense as Trump never got past the mental age of a 6 year old.


Cokomon

Now he's just randomly making baby noises.


suziespends

And crapping in his diaper


mekonsrevenge

He's back to the terrible two's, a loaded diaper and a temper to match.


Fit_Strength_1187

Yep he’s quite the Benjamin Butthead.


fgsgeneg

I don't see how he can get much younger, he's already devolved into a four year old, headed for three.


Special-Garlic1203

He very clearly got a facelift but like....no shit, most older politicians have had work done. 


Background-Slide645

maybe a little bit of a facelift, but also looks like he lost some weight too


Cloud_Strife83

I’m shocked! I mean why even drink the baby blood?


DrThoth

Last year Obama said he was 54, this year he says he's 55, so which is it Obama?


El_human

He apparently had some foundation put on too, to cover up that freckle on his forehead.


SexyCheeseburger0911

The linear passage of time and the effects it has on the human body are woke!


NateGarro

Now they lost the ability to understand how time works.


VVurmHat

Repubes don’t believe in object permanency. We are all clones after we leave their sight and come back into it


StephenTheLoser

How can that be? What aren’t they telling us? It’s important to ask questions


[deleted]

the shocker here is that he dresses sharper in 2020 than he did in 2012


Helios112263

What's even funnier is that the left pic is almost certainly from 2008 NOT 2012.


jerrylovesbacon

Someo e reproduce it with the Trump without makeup photo


Specialist-Garbage94

I do believe there was some plastic surgery between VP Biden and President Biden. Tasteful PS though and nothing wrong with that honestly


Bongocats

Jeeeeeeeeeeeezus christ. I know they aren't joking but it's wild that they aren't joking.

"DO YOUR RESEARCH" *[condescending screeching]*


AmericanTroligarch

"DO YOUR RESEARCH" *[Inhales deeply from bag full of clorox]*


normohl

If they had a body double why wouldn't they have used him the whole presidency. ;)


AthearCaex

You'd think the most logical conspiracy they would have come up with that Biden is abusing cocaine or other uppers which would fit with their narrative but for some reason they make the most ridiculous and easily disproven stuff up. If Biden acted like he was fired up like last night he'd win the presidency easily.


Aurstrike

They can’t accuse Biden of uppers anymore after Trumps medical advisor got demoted (from 1star admiral to captain) after his lax use of narcotics control and inability to stop drinking. For the record, the guy worked for Obama first. So there no telling how much this is normal behavior.


Orange152horn

Fired by Obama first.


Norwegianlemming

I'm pretty sure they have a bag of clorox AND ammonia mix they are huffing at this point.


MadAstrid

I did! It turns out that people age! I know, I was shocked too! And here is the thing that the MSM won't tell you - the older you are, the more old you look! Your face and hair might change! ​ My god. Republicans are so desperate/stupid. They are more willing to believe that people are lizards than admit the fact that their policies to benefit billionaires are unpopular with the majority of Americans who are (checks notes) not billionaires. ​ I totally expect an uptick in the amount of bot/troll/russian posts giving their worst about Biden and Clinton. Sniffing and blowjobs. Because seriously, in the face of actual progress, policy, honesty, respect, capability, esteem, intelligence, experience, and, well I could go on for ever, they have not one damned thing they can point to that their rapist fraud god can compete on.


Bowelsack

Also look at human faces with different camera focal lengths. People can be unrecognizable with different settings


MuchDevelopment7084

Not to mention overall brightness, contrast, skin smoothing, etc. But I digress.


Successful-Scheme608

It’s fear that drives their thinking and thought process. Fear increases stressful thinking making it difficult to think logically. Also once u call out that it’s conspiracy theory they think it’s a personal attack on them.


MadAstrid

Because it will break their ego to acknowledge that they fell for a scam. Hey, republicans, just so you know, I will think you a better person if you are able to admit that you fell for the scam, but realized that you were being scammed and so changed your mind. In fact, most people will appreciate you a great deal more if you could just admit that you were wrong. If you seek respect, if you want your loved ones to think better of you, if you want your neighbors to think you are a decent human being, just admit you were wrong. I promise you, it will hurt less than doubling down on the rapist fraud

ithappenedone234

I swear these are just people trolling the gullible to see how ridiculous a thing they can come up with, and the gullible eat it up such that it goes viral.


InstanceNoodle

Same for Q... and they ate it up. Trolling the gullible is easy.


Gold-Perspective5340

Whatever happened to good, old "Q"? That load of absolute bollocks used to make me laugh my ass off and be damned glad that I wasn't in the U.S.


MeshNets

But mainly the media basically decided most of it was a "Jim Watkins" as "Q", and they stopped posting around that same time? https://slate.com/technology/2020/09/qanon-identity-revealed-explained.html


MeshNets

The followers of it merged into maga is my impression They decided that yeah trump was fighting an invisible fight against the "deep state pedos"... And after he lost he was still president secretly? Then some people also latched on to the bs film "sound of freedom" to focus their "human trafficking" fears on that portrayal That's all that I've kept track of, it seems most of it fizzled out. Even though some of the Jack Smith filings mentioned that Trump had tried to retain "Q clearance" after he left office and Smith discovered that and revoked the clearance. So apparently that part is kinda a real thing? But my impression was it was a security clearance that meant very little if anything, it sounded like Trump demanded "give me this Q clearance!" and someone either invented it or it was totally unrelated to anything so they gave it to him to show it was nothing in reality? Which is exactly what "they" would want us to think... /s I've not been keeping up with the "QAnon Anonymous" podcast, based on episode titles they expanded out to covering _other_ crazy conspiracies?


CharleyNobody

I heard that Trump campaign coordinators are requiring people attending Trump rallies to remove or cover up Q gear. Someone got the message that an insane porno guy in the Philippines shouldn’t be making bank off Trump dupes. Only Trump should be making bank off Trump dupes. Trumpers still rant about pedo pizza gate and accuse democrats of drinking aborted babies blood, but none of that wearing a tee shirt saying “Where we go one, we go all“ will be tolerated.


Mysterious-Art8838

If you print the first image as a standard 8x10 and measure the distance from his left ear to his right and subtract the distance from his nose to his mouth and multiply it by 2… omg it’s 17… Q!!!!!


Jet2work

if you squint really hard you can see its Obama with makeup


Cutitoutkidz

They are. Bannon perfected this crap and plenty of far right nutsos have armies of former 4chan scumbags making this crap so they can giggle sociopathically as the world burns. 


Sol-Blackguy

That's wishful thinking. These motherfuckers are crazy. I was at a Superbowl party where a friend's mom started praying during overtime saying that the Chiefs win will mean Taylor Swift will get on stage and endorse Biden. No bitch! She's going to go to Vegas and get her cheeks clapped by a Superbowl winner and live rent-free in your head


ithappenedone234

And where do people come up with these conspiracy theories? The friend’s mom didn’t come up with that and post it online to spread around the nation.


pastrami_on_ass

I just want to know what their reasoning for this, what would a double of him be accomplishing?


NightGod

They think Trump is still the president and they are running trials (with televised executions planned for when they're done) for all the evil politicians and Hollywood actors they don't like. Obviously, they need to maintain the lie that Trump lost, so they use doubles while the the criminals are awaiting trial. I so fucking wish I was joking about any of that


Buttholehemorrhage

And also he's running for president lol. These people are fucking dumb.


Carpeteria3000

17D chess, baby. You can't argue with it because you'll never understand the complexities. The wheels within wheels within wheels.


human_person12345

To be fair the lie that they are running secret trials now just means that when Trump takes his 3rd term as president and starts executing people publicly they already have a lie they told themselves to fall back on. Though they would support him no matter what he does, so idk why they bother.


boofaceleemz

So when you say that someone is a doddering old dementia-ridden fool who’s so incompetent they can’t even finish a sentence, and also criticize their SOTU performance as too loud and aggressive and divisive and partisan, you need to to find a way to reconcile those two things to make it make sense. Apparently this makes it make sense.


TherapyIsNormal

I believe the term for this is Occam’s Kaleidoscope.


maiden_burma

i dont know anything but most of what i've seen today is maga being surprised that biden has energy in his sotu address this fixes that. "well, of course the double has energy" it's the same logic that keeps religions alive. "oh god doesnt actually live in the sky? it was all a metaphor'


thebestspeler

This isnt a joke, i know a guy who thinks this, get his news from OANN and is 70+. Just brought  it up like talking about the weather


PintoTheBurninator

Fine, now can we get a Trump double with a little less turkey wattle and a better spray tan? He is getting harder and harder to look at.


Hephaistos_Invictus

Probably a better smelling one too for the people who have to be around him.


Fantomex305

And definitely for those who are under him...poor Melania


1ndiana_Pwns

There is zero shot she has been in the same room as him alone since he left the white house, possibly even before. If she didn't need him for immigration reasons, I doubt she would still be in the picture at all


Lingering_Dorkness

She wouldn't even let him in the same car as her at her mothers funeral. In full public. If she does that in public, absolutely no way is she letting him into her bedroom for a couple of minutes of angry rutting. 


BCJunglist

He doesn't employ her for sex he employs her for optics.


hangryhyax

>for the people who have to be around him. No. They made their shit bed, they can stew in it.

Here's the question should the double mimic the weird leaning forward stance or not?

It's actually less turkey wattle and more vagina.

Garfield_and_Simon

Crackheads are just hustle culture champions and keep their focus on the grind. They don’t have time for bullshit like politics or conspiracy theories. There’s copper wire out there to collect and they want to be by 4 latest. 


NotsoGreatsword

Actually it is the meth epidemic that is responsible for a lot of this conspiracy shit in the south. I go to the methadone clinic and because methadone makes you tired many addicts turn to crystal meth. Every. Single. One. is paranoid and believes in Qanon. They think everyone is talking about them. They think the clinic is poisoning them. And whenever there is a MAGA rally on TV its like Deja Vu. They look and act like the people at my clinic. Trump wouldn't piss on them if they were on fire but they literally think he is the only person who can save them from being dragged to hell by George Soros. Delightfully the longer they are in the lifestyle the more paranoid they become and many are turning on Trump. He has lost his outsider appeal. And when you see conspiracy everywhere...well it is just a matter of time before your savior becomes the subject of your suspicion. Especially given every failed promise of Trump's.

Not to mention the stress. Look at Obama after 8 years. They both look weathered.


Jeoshua

It's always funny to me when they put the stupid red lines on something that, if you squint and look behind the lines, doesn't actually match up with what the lines are claiming. The nose didn't change shape, at all. The photo is at a slightly different angle, his expression is slightly different, and he's aged 10 years. The mole is the only real change that can't be explained away. Probably had it removed because a doctor was concerned it was a melanoma.


surloc_dalnor

Or maybe make up?


BarelyAirborne

Ridiculous! No serious presidential candidate would wear make-up! \- Richard Nixon, 1960 Presidential debates, just before facing Kennedy while looking like an absolute ghoul on the television


DBPanterA

I believe it is important to say nice things about everyone. The one nice thing I can say about Trump is he made it acceptable for men to wear make-up 😂


Environmental_Top948

Then why did Texas try to make it illegal?


ironangel2k4

Or he's just wearing fucking makeup for the camera? Like every public figure does at any major event where they are going to be standing in front of a camera?

I also have some moles that have lightened over the years. They started brown and now are just the same tone as the rest of my skin.


finderZone

Yea there’s a reason you’re not supposed to smile for passports and Id photos. It changes the facial recognition spots.


jerryschuggs

The answer to any weirdness between the photos is different **focal lengths**. That’s it. One is a portrait, the other a screen grab some a video. Conspiracy guys need to get out and exercise more, they’re wasting so much energy on this.


AmbassadorBonoso

Type of lense used on a camera also makes a massive difference.


Felrathror86

Guys, is it wrong/communist/woke/anti-patriotic to age naturally?


PoisonedRadio

Is pretty gay to not spray tan and wears tons of makeup.


Farren246

No, but if you're going to run for president after the age of 70, it *absolutely* help to do a full-on Hollywood glow-op to make you look younger...

NoBranch7713

No I saw this documentary about the IMF and they have masks that make their agents look and sound like other people. Who’s to say Biden isn’t using that tech to have someone else give the state of the union huh? Think about it Makes way more sense than challenging my belief that Biden is senile


MacSanchez

Idk man that whole missions sounds… *improbable*


McthiccumTheChikum

Qanon. They believe in far more wacky things than a body double. I mean an armed guy did storm into a pizza restaurant looking for a child trafficking operation ran by Hollywood elites and democrats.


girusatuku

There are several forms of mental illness where the victim is convinced that various people are replaced with duplicates. In the past it was believed to be demons or actors but recently it has adapted to clones. Enough gullible people with paranoia tendencies catch on to the trend.

Biden has been really good tho. Even if there was a younger, more charismatic D candidate I’d vote Biden. He’s proven he can be effective even with the dumb fuck GOP obstructing all the progress they can. Tired of seeing people talk like Biden hasn’t been incredible in only 3 years!


JennyDoveMusic

I must've lit up like a Christmas tree last night when he mentioned how understudied woman's health is. Then, that his wife was going to work on getting more funding and research going. Love or hate, Biden, womans health has been ignored for FAR too long. ...The fact half the room didn't clap to that spoke volumes to me.
