Trump Shares Unhinged Conspiracy Theory That Biden Is a Robot Clone [View all]

With one repost from President Donald Trump, former president Joe Biden has joined a storied pantheon: public figures believed to have died and been replaced by clones.

Not content with only spreading conspiracy theories on Friday night, late on Saturday night, Trump shared a post by a supporter to his Truth Social page that claimed Biden was killed in 2020. The post reads, “There is no #JoeBiden - executed in 2020. #Biden clones doubles & robotic engineered soulless mindless entities are what you see. Democrats dont know the difference.”

With this bizarre accusation, Biden joins celebrities like The Beatles’ Paul McCartney, who has been dodging rumors about his death since 1969, and Avril Lavigne, who has been plagued by a conspiracy theory involving her death and subsequent replacement by a clone since the 2000s.

Trump’s own wife Melania has also been the subject of similar conspiracy theories, with the idea that Melania had been replaced by a body double gaining steam during Trump’s first term, prompting the White House to issue a statement dismissing the theories as a “non-story.”
