ABC News Australia ^ | 11/04/2021 | Peter Marsh and Wires

You can find it on T-shirts. It's chanted by people at political rallies. Republican politicians wear masks with the phrase. Leading Republicans share photos of it on construction sites.

Three words--"Lets Go Brandon"

The seemingly innocuous chant is becoming an increasingly common part of American politics. Here's what it means, a how it came about.

What does "Let's Go Brandon" mean?

We won't be round the bush,--it acutally means "F*** Joe Biden".

Think of it a bit like a secret handshake for American conservatives, but it's not that secret. It's an in-joke, a wink and a nod for elected politicians and supporters to share and say "hey, I'm a part of the team"....

The Australian Broadcasting Company needs to know that Lets Go Brandon means we won’t let Biden make us into the control-freak hellhole that Australia has become.

Did they explain that the MSM tried to lie about the original chant?

And thus, the Chant no only echoes the original chant but also mocks the MSM. A twofer.

This morning I heard a couple of leftist DJs going on about how the right-wingers think they’re so clever with “Let’s Go Brandon”, but they’re just being childish, etc., etc.

I can only stand a few minutes of those two before I have to change the station, but it was good to know that LGB is really bugging them.

Maybe a three-fer when you consider that there are folks that would never chant FJB, but have no problem with “Let’s go, Brandon!”

“And thus, the Chant no only echoes the original chant but also mocks the MSM. A twofer.”

Actually, I was not in favor of the original phrase at all, especially not at public events where there would be children present.

The “Brandon” version is, however, an ingenious workaround for this problem, and we have to thank the MSM for providing it to and publicizing it for us.

Hey ABC Australia!

It was coined by a gas-lighter from NBC USA!

Let’s Go Brandon!

“I can only stand a few minutes of those two before I have to change the station, but it was good to know that LGB is really bugging them.”

Can dish it out, but can’t take it - demonstrating that the Left is actually very weak.
