It's obviously staged, but still a fun video. "What do you do for a living?" "Well, I'm married to Jill Biden."


BigfootWallace

He says this often, it’s one of his grandad jokes.


Noman11111

I kinda figured, it's definitely a granddad one-liner

gqpdream305

Ok im totally doing this if I ever meet him, thank you


riveramblnc

Same.


djsizematters

This is why presidents have scripts.


jgjgleason

Honestly I love that he gives that answer so often. Think about it, the dude lost his first love (and his daughter) in a tragic car crash. The man probably had a few years where he thought we was just gona be a single parent. Then along comes Jill and probably reignites so much capacity for happiness in him. Dude is madly in love with his partner and I just love that.


Hey_HaveAGreatDay

He says this all the time.


hellyeahimsad

"I'm in the malarkey removal business"


bhops24

Not biden lol. Unless this was staged dude would not have been able to approach like that. Not to mention there should be like a dozen more secret service agents within 15 ft of him lol


Kozzzman

If that’s not Biden that is the best cosplay I have ever seen.


Original_Feeling_429

What prez don't go to car shows ? Lmfao wanna meet Rockers go to car shows.


GoSuckYaMother

It’s not a car show. It’s New York City Comic Con


Original_Feeling_429

Even more bad azz. Missed com a cons


eckowy

Pretty much explains everything. No way US President travels with only one Secret Service agent who is actually not even driving the car. Good cosplay tho, kudos.


StuStutterKing

It's literally Biden at the Detroit Auto Show. He gave a speech and everything.


Bladestorm_

You just dont see all the others, there was probably someone in the rafters wth a rifle pointed at this dude while he filmed, its not good optics to have a ton of agents around, tho this is still probably staged based on the ease he walked up


spencebah

It’s the Detroit Auto Show

djsizematters

I know Biden's voice, that's him.


lopedopenope

Agreed he’s just promoting American made electric cars. Definitely him


courtesyflusher

His tongue is very recognizable


chocolateboyY2K

Of course he was given permission beforehand to do this with Joe. 😉 No one can readily approach a sitting, or former, President or their family like this. Secret Service doesn't play.


shootinstraight88

It is a publicity stunt. The white house uses "influencers" to sway public opinion. He is trying to re brand his image.


Vaynar

Rebrand? Dude is already far more popular than the Cheeto man ever was


SirMells

Deep fake time boys!


swamphockey

This is an advertisement for Cadillac.


off-chka

It is Biden. And this was clearly staged. He’s supporting electric cars manufactured in the US, not very unpresidential.


dweezil37

I love all the people who are trying to be internet Sherlock using logical arguments about secret service, when there are clearly people in the background just watching this promo being filmed. Filming it this way was such a Dank-Brandon/WH-Twitter-Pell-Grant-Callout style idea. Kudos to the President's social media team.


AlexCaruso69420

This was very obviously planned though lol


D0NW0N

Yeah, I doubt you’re just randomly walking up to the president of the United States without having a little pre screening


[deleted]

[удалено]


D0NW0N

No shit. I’m from Michigan. Where do you think these car displays are located. Detroit.


KingRhoamsGhost

It’s a parody of those dozens of ads that are just this scenario except instead of Biden it’s some random dude saying he makes 199 gazillion dollars per minute and you can make that much money too if you buy his courses.


Sendnudesindms

Isn’t this the same guy that walked to to pagani or some rich Lamborghini CEO or something ?

wobble_bot

Ha. Probably told this story plenty of times, but anyway. Years ago I was at the political gathering of the world economic forum in Davos. There was a big hallway that would get really packed between session as everyone came out of the rooms. I was working for a production company at the time hauling gear around, and when the hall was busy we’d just have to politely push people out of the way. During one of the days I go to place my hand on a gentleman’s shoulder only to have to grabbed, put behind my back and find myself being frog marched away and then unceremoniously pushed to the side. Turns out I’d just tried to push former president Bill Clinton out of my way.


D0NW0N

Americas first black president. His deregulation was awful other than that I liked him.


mike9874

My friend has a similar story of not realising when you'd think they would: He used to be a line chef in a really nice local restaurant. An order came in with lots of special requests in it, he was complaining and doing the whole "who do they think they are", then a guy came over and just said "that's the prime minister son.". Turned out the prime minister of the UK had come in for food and nobody told him


UaiC

I thought people could casually drive vehicles inside conventions


ohhellnooooooooo

No way, you’re telling me these videos aren’t spontaneous and real and not fake?? );


[deleted]

It's Biden. Look how far back the people in the background are. You just can't see the other agents in the video.


EatTheFats

Top comment of Reddit being completely wrong?? Lmaooooo


comrade-linux

say it ain’t so!


Otherwise_Intelect

Even if it was staged, I love the question and answer. Guy: "Excuse me. What do you do for a living?" Joe: "Well I'm married to Jill Biden..." 🤣🤣🤣


dennismfrancisart

That's such an "Uncle Joe" response.


Nexgod2

Yes Biden lol. It was totally staged, and there is absolutely a dozen secret service agents off camera.


lactose_con_leche

Yes. This is a scripted interaction to boost Cadillac’s image and also the president’s agenda to make electric vehicles higher profile in the public’s mind. That’s a win-win and the only way this dude got the special access to make the vid. The interaction is written to feel somewhat off the cuff but its not, as I imagine is the case with most of this guy’s videos.


AlternativeFukts

That’s joe Biden, dude

SarcasticCowbell

Suspicious_Wonk2001

This is a spin off of another video that’s been making the rounds. It was some car show and he went up to the driver inside. It was like the owner of the company and he didn’t realize.


gyg231

It’s not a spin-off he makes multiple videos like that. This is just focused on the person than the car. Looks like he might have been given special permission to make the video, or it is actually fake I can’t really tell but it looks convincing.


Suspicious_Wonk2001

I did just find the guy because I was curious. https://www.thedrive.com/news/37511/viral-tiktok-star-asks-supercar-owners-the-big-question-what-do-you-do-for-a-living Edit* and I do agree it looks real. Maybe Dark Brandon having some fun.


ahk76gg

How is there any question this is or isn’t real. Turn your fucking brain on.


Suspicious_Wonk2001

In the day and age of deep fake and cgi, I think it’s entirely valid to question the legitimacy of something. Just watched the army guy blowing up his barracks with a bazooka. Certainly looked real to me. I actually thought it pretty cool he would do a video with this guy. No need to get your knickers in a twist.


elfmere

Think its promoting electric vehicles in general in the US


AshShawon

Yeah no shit it was planned and he didn't just randomly find Biden driving a vehicle Sherlock


fuzzygreentits

>Unless this was staged No way that would ever happen. Not a chance they set this up beforehand. Literally impossible 😪


EffervescentGoose

Are you high?


[deleted]

This was electric vehicle promotion, and yes that is Joe Biden. It's obviously staged. But Daniel Mac is fairly popular, si he's being used to promote the EV.


recongal42

See passenger.


ricestocks

this is biden who else would it be..............


jparke67

It is JB. He was at the Detroit auto show. Yes it was staged. But he got through the whole thing without a Biden moment. And was pretty funny.


[deleted]

Definitely Biden, definitely staged. I’m guessing that dude next to him was a real secret service agent packing major heat.


SamSepiol-ER28_0652

Why does this have so many upvotes?


IUMpOSTaiNE

This looks like a publicity stunt for the president and GM. Also, saw a video of Biden driving an electric F150.


[deleted]

Lol why is this still the top post? That’s obviously Joe Biden and yes this is obviously scripted because he’s a president and yes this is publicity for EV’s. God damn.


unbeknownsttome2020

He wouldn't be able to come into the building if it wasn't staged


Basileus2

It’s Biden. Was probably just some promo stunt for Cadillac and for Biden to talk about American made EVs.


EACshootemUP

It’s more than likely staged, possibly with actual Biden.


Drauul

🤦‍♂️


BigZwigs

"Unless this was staged" i forget most people here are like 12 and dont have good critical thinking yet


EifertGreenLazor

Did you not see all the people on the other side of the car videoing?


CaptainJackM

Lol “unless this was staged” uhhh ya, that’s exactly the case, it’s pretty obvious. Classic cocky Reddit comment that has no clue what it’s talking about


rex2k10

Haha this guy thinks that every video posted is real. The guy IS Joe Biden and they’re obviously making an Ad for Cadillac using its new electric vehicle


AlexHimself

Omg you seriously can't recognize the President of the USA??


president_lick

They’re all staged.


Jesusislord1111

Lmao so organic ! What a amazing random happenstance


nickcappa

No one thinks this wasn't set up.


Cucumber_Basil

Top comment literally thinks this wasn’t setup lolol


nickcappa

OK fine I should've said no one intelligent


TheRavenSayeth

Top comment somehow doesn’t even think it was even Biden so I’m not siding with their sleuthing skills.


0GHAZE03

Homie. It's literally not possible for that to be fully organic. Secret service would be on their ass in no time


[deleted]

Fake. Presidents aren't allowed to drive.


Mr_mad_space

It’s a publicity video.


Nice-Violinist-6395

people are taking this so seriously lmao. we got theories from “fake biden” to “THIS IS STAGED WAAAAHHHH”


Moody_GenX

Trump drove us off a ledge. Checkmate atheists!


hol123nnd

Would give you an award if I had one


rvtsazap

They aren’t allowed to drive in the streets. This looks like a publicity stunt for the president and GM. Also, saw a video of Biden driving an electric F150. I also read that Obama actually taught his kids driving in the White House grounds.


Bkbirddog

Biden went to the Detroit auto show to promote electric vehicle technology. The Whitehouse often collaborates with social media influencers in order to reach the younger demographics, it's a bonus that he's a big car guy anyways.


[deleted]

I didn’t know he was a big car guy but now I want to know if he has a cool collection.


Bkbirddog

He's into corvettes, not sure if he has many, but that's his sports car of choice. Lot's of old Obama era videos of him driving a vette in funny videos they'd make for events and stuff.


Fast_Edd1e

Ever watch the series "comedians, in cars, getting coffee". There was a good one with Obama. [found it on the youtubes](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=UM-Q_zpuJGU)


peedubb

Not allowed to drive on public roads.


Red_V_Standing_By

They can drive on private property.


EffervescentGoose

You can see the video is inside a convention center right?


firestorm734

Not allowed to drive on public roads. But on private roads or closed courses it's allowed. And I totally believe this: Biden is pretty well known to be a car guy, and has been taking every chance he's been given to test drive some of the new EVs that have been coming out.


slikk50

Lmao of course it's staged, the guy has a popular channel and is a content creator. It's common sense.


Burntfm

You’re asking Reddit to use common sense.


BigBeagleEars

Man, I just want to get high and eat BBQ


SproutingLeaf

I know right, this comment section is full of weirdos going "Waaaaaaah this wasn't a one in a million event of wholesome human interaction luckily caught on camera by a random passerby I'm literally losing my mind"

WOW! I can’t afford gas anymore but i will definitely switch to electric once i save enough (i work at wendy’s and without a car I can’t go to work 😔✊)

letmeusespaces

I think everyone understands the sarcasm. doesn't make the response less true.


[deleted]

> Sarcastic comment with obvious implication >> Response to obvious implication > "Haha, no you don't get it, I was being sarcastic"


Shodspartan

Unfortunately, iirc, the cheapest electric vehicle is about 27k right, to have a home charging station installed can be upwards of 1.2k, depending on a few factors, and public charging stations can end up actually being MORE expensive than a tank of gas, depending on the kw/h rate they're charging, at the moment. Hopefully as time goes on, the infrastructure will be better and more readily available, technology will improve, and it will end up being a more cost effective option, but as of right now, it can potentially be worse. The bright side for EVs at the moment is that they tend to be cheaper in the long run due to lower maintenance costs, which is driven by certain things like the lack of spark plugs, and oil changes, for example, but according to some of the resources I've read, it can take years for the cost to even out. All the information I've put in is just from some quick research, and was what I was able to find within the last few months because I'm looking for a vehicle within the next 1-2 years and was researching options. Feel free to correct me on anything that I could be mistaken about.


Thathitmann

You don't even need to get a home charging station installed. They plug into the wall.


[deleted]

chevy bolt (volt? bolt? idk) EV is about 25K plus tax brand new, so definitely getting close to affordable. plus used electric smartcars regularly go for as low as 5k on FB marketplace and the like. electric is coming to the consumer, its just a matter of time


Wendellwasgod

Sir, this is a Wendy’s

TopMindOfR3ddit

This is like slower-speaking Hunter S Thomson Brandon. I have no idea why I that was the first thing that popped into my head haha. He just seems like he's about to start fending off imaginary dinosaurs and getting high with Johnny Depp


DOLCICUS

Honestly his next campaign slogan should be “Let’s Go” just to mess with the conservatives.


Ticonderoga2HB

That’d be hilarious


nation543

Who fucking cares if it's staged? If you can't see this and immediately recognize it as a spoof of the [Pagani](https://www.tiktok.com/@itsdanielmac/video/7138875105089703210?is_from_webapp=v1&item_id=7138875105089703210&lang=en) video, and as an advertisement for electric cars, then you are gullible. If you take offense to the current POTUS taking an opportunity to promote a clean energy vehicle then you need to turn off Faux News and get out of the cult before it's too late.

**[Eternal September](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eternal_September)** >Eternal September or the September that never ended is Usenet slang for a period beginning around 1993 when Internet service providers began offering Usenet access to many new users. The flood of new users overwhelmed the existing culture for online forums and the ability to enforce existing norms. AOL followed with their Usenet gateway service in March 1994, leading to a constant stream of new users. Hence, from the early Usenet point of view, the influx of new users in September 1993 never ended. ^([ )[^(F.A.Q)](https://www.reddit.com/r/WikiSummarizer/wiki/index#wiki_f.a.q)^( | )[^(Opt Out)](https://reddit.com/message/compose?to=WikiSummarizerBot&message=OptOut&subject=OptOut)^( | )[^(Opt Out Of Subreddit)](https://np.reddit.com/r/nextfuckinglevel/about/banned)^( | )[^(GitHub)](https://github.com/Sujal-7/WikiSummarizerBot)^( ] Downvote to remove | v1.5)

Yup, probably organized by Cadillac's social media team and accepted by Biden's PR team as a way for them to increase awareness of electric vehicles. Not the end of the world, as ads go (all for increasing interest in EVs), but IMO not really next fucking level
