On Wednesday local time, a video of Biden wearing a "Trump 2024" hat went viral on the Internet, triggering an orgy of Trump supporters. The White House responded immediately by saying that it was true, but there was a very positive reason behind it. Footage from the scene showed Biden holding a red hat, briefly putting it on his head and then taking it off. In response, White House spokesperson Andrew Bates quickly responded that Biden mentioned the bipartisan unity after the disaster at the 9/11 commemoration and said that America should return to that time now. As a gesture, he gave a hat to a Trump supporter at the scene, who later said that Biden should also wear his Trump hat. So Biden briefly put it on.
