Biden dons and marks a "Trump 2024" campaign hat.
In Pennsylvania, Biden recalls the victims of the 9/11 attacks, and a supporter of Trump gifts him a cap. He chuckles and dons it himself, sparking internet sensation.
The cap wasn't the best fit: During a visit to Pennsylvania, the U.S., former President Biden picked up a "Trump 2024" emblazoned red cap, a piece of campaign gear for Republican presidential hopeful, Donald Trump, who intends to retake the White House and is perceived as a danger to U.S. democracy by Biden.
At a gathering with firefighters in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, honoring the 9/11 terrorist attacks on Wednesday, a pro-Trump individual provided Biden with the cap. Already wearing a black cap, the 81-year-old exchanged it, placing the red one on his head instead.
A recording of Biden in stitches, wearing his opponent's campaign hat, swiftly gained popularity on digital platforms. The Trump team briskly responded: "Thanks a bunch, Joe!", posted on the X messaging service.
Biden withdrew from the presidential race on July 21, as concerns about his mental and physical strength intensified. His disastrous TV debate performance against Trump a month prior marked the decline of his political career.
The pro-Trump gesture during Biden's visit unexpectedly led to a viral moment, with a video of him wearing the "Trump 2024" cap gaining significant attention. Despite leaving the presidential race, the US presidential election of 2024 remains a prominent topic in the political sphere, with Donald Trump announcing his intention to run again.
