Well, folks, the Biden campaign is clearly in damage control mode. They’ve established a task force to handle the fallout from videos that put President Joe Biden in a less than favorable light. The term they’ve coined for these videos? “Cheap fakes.” But many, including Steven Cheung, Trump’s Campaign Communications Director, beg to differ and insist that these videos are indeed real.
It’s no secret that the White House staff are on edge about videos of President Biden that emphasize his advanced age, occasional blunders, and instances of confusion. Their hypersensitivity has even resulted in clashes with media allies over the coverage of these incidents.
The term “cheap fakes,” was introduced by the White House after an awkward video emerged showing former President Barack Obama guiding a seemingly frozen Biden off stage at a fundraising event. This attempt to label and devalue such clips is a clear sign of their discomfort.

Another embarrassing moment occurred on June 13 when Biden appeared to lose his way in Europe before Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni redirected him back to the group of world leaders watching a skydiving show. And who could forget the Juneteenth event video where Vice President Kamala Harris and others were dancing while Biden stood still, sporting a vacant smile?

In response to these “cheap fakes,” an anonymous Biden official told Politico’s West Wing Playbook that the task force was created to lessen their impact. The campaign insists that social media companies and media allies should also play a part in limiting the reach and influence of these videos.
“Voters deserve accurate information to inform their choice this November,” declared Biden campaign spokesperson Mia Ehrenberg. “Our campaign will be vigilant in calling out these lies when we see them. We hope media organizations and others with influential platforms follow our lead.”
However, not everyone is buying into this “cheap fake” narrative. Steven Cheung, Trump’s Campaign Communications Director, told Breitbart News that these videos of Biden malfunctioning are indeed real.
“The truth hurts,” Cheung stated. “When the Biden campaign is confronted with that cold, hard reality, they offer ridiculous claims that anyone who clearly sees Biden acting like a brain-dead dope is part of some media-wide conspiracy.”
As we approach the November elections, the fight over Biden’s public image intensifies. Keep an eye on this space for more updates on this political soap opera!
