The US president was insulted on Friday, December 24, with a hint of noise, during a phone call as part of the Christmas celebrations. He's a family man who used the coded expression "Let's go Brandon" , popular with supporters of former President Donald Trump, which actually means "Fuck Joe Biden", Joe Biden).

The President and his wife Jill have followed the tradition of chatting with a few people calling a hotline to follow the Santa Claus tour, managed since 1955 by the North American Aerospace Defense Command (Norad). It was in this context, by videoconference from the White House, that they were put in touch with a man claiming to be called "Jared", father of four children.

"I agree", replied the president

After chatting briefly with the kids about the gifts they ordered and getting them to go to bed before midnight, Joe Biden spoke with the father, noting that they both have a son named Hunter. Ending the conversation, the American president wished "a wonderful Christmas" to his interlocutor, who replied "I also wish you to have a wonderful Christmas, merry Christmas" before ending his words with "Let's go Brandon " .

"'Let's go Brandon', I agree," replied the US president, without further reaction to the coded formula. If it was not immediately possible to determine whether the president had entered the reference, Jill Biden on the other hand let out an embarrassed laugh.
