Trump shares theory that Joe Biden DIED in 2020 and was replaced by a clone

President Donald Trump shared a bizarre theory on social media Saturday night that suggested Joe Biden died in 2020 and has since been replaced by a ‘clone.’

The Truth Social post, which has since gone viral, stated bluntly that the former president of the United States had somehow been dead for years while still in office.  

‘There is no #JoeBiden – executed in 2020. #Biden clones doubles & robotic engineered soulless mindless entities are what you see,’ wrote the user named llijh. ‘#Democrats dont know the difference.’

Trump did not add any of his own commentary to the post, but simply amplifying the wild conspiracy created confusion. 

Almost immediately, social media erupted, with supporters and critics alike grappling with the surreal suggestion.

‘We all knew something was completely off,’ one commenter wrote. ‘Although Trump has said repeatedly that Joe Biden was shot.’   

Others reveled in the uncanny nature of the moment: ‘Wow! President Trump just re-truthed this post,’ exclaimed one astonished user. 

Another chimed in: ‘I cannot believe President Trump just reTRUTHED this.’

The president’s replies section rapidly devolved into a torrent of wild speculation about what surprises may be ahead.

‘Well you just went there! Go you! The truth is coming! Buckle up!’ one supporter cheered.

A video shared online suggested that Biden was a robot and did not blink

The Truth Social is the latest barb against former President Joe Biden

Trump himself did not add any commentary to the post, but the act of re-truthing it spoke volumes

‘Thank you, do you know how long I’ve been saying this? Trump was still our President in his first term and I knew Joe Biden was gone during his run for president. They installed The Biden…an actor (blue eyes & brown eyes),’ wrote another, referring to fringe theories that claim noticeable changes in Biden’s eye color are evidence of a body double.

Others mocked the madness. ‘Just like all MAGAts, you’re all into conspiracy theories. Do you think the earth is flat as well? Just wondering,’ one user wrote sarcastically.

‘We knew this but now it’s confirmed by the Commander in Chief! Wow!!! NCSWIC…nothing! Trust the Plan!’ added a QAnon sympathizer, referencing the popular but baseless ‘Nothing Can Stop What Is Coming’ slogan.

Trump’s casual amplification served to underscore the surreal and conspiratorial environment that defines the MAGA movement.

This isn’t the first time Trump has danced with conspiracy theories.

Throughout his first term as president Trump continued to given oxygen to baseless theories: suggesting Ted Cruz’s father was involved in the JFK assassination, refusing to fully distance himself from QAnon, and promoting claims of massive voter fraud during the 2020 election without evidence.

Gaffes made by Joe Biden during his presidency became something of a focus for the Trump team

Trump was the most prominent promoter of the so-called ‘birther’ conspiracy, falsely claiming that President Barack Obama was not born in the United States. 

For years, Trump demanded Obama’s birth certificate and continued to suggest it was fraudulent even after Obama released the official long-form document. 

It wasn’t until 2016, under mounting political pressure, that Trump finally admitted Obama was born in the US – without apology or acknowledgment of the damage the false claims had caused. 

But suggesting the idea that a former president of the United States was a ‘clone’ pushes the envelope even further.

The statement appeared more like the plot of a sci-fi movie than a concept worthy of the attention of a head of state. 

That book, Original Sin, paints a harrowing portrait of a presidency in decline, propped up by aides and family members desperate to cling to power

Last month, Biden’s cancer announcement revived questions about the extent of his health issues during his tenure, with Trump saying Biden should have been more transparent with the public.

Biden’s office said he had been diagnosed with ‘aggressive’ prostate cancer that had spread to his bones. 

It placed renewed focus on the health of the 82-year-old with the publication of a book that details widespread concerns about Biden’s mental acuity among aides and Democratic insiders as he pursued reelection in 2024. 

The new book, ‘Original Sin,’ by journalists Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson put a spotlight on Biden’s mental acuity in his final months in office. 

Excerpts from the book have prompted new questions about whether critical information was withheld from the American public about Biden’s ability to serve in the White House. 

Questions over the former president’s age, health and fitness for office ultimately led him to ditch his reelection campaign 

Biden’s closest aides have dismissed those concerns, saying Biden was fully capable of making important decisions.

Biden has appeared on television to rebut accusations that his mental capacity had diminished during his 2021-2025 term. 

Biden, the oldest person ever to serve as president, was forced to drop his reelection bid last July after a stumbling debate performance against Trump eroded his support among fellow Democrats. 

Biden’s vice president, Kamala Harris, launched a bid of her own but lost to Trump in the November 2024 election.
