Did Biden Poop His Pants in Rome?
At the end of October 2021, as U.S. President Joe Biden met with Pope Francis during the G20 summit, hashtags such as #poopypantsbiden and #poopgate started circulating on social media, along memes based on the unsubstantiated claim that the commander in chief had a bathroom accident during his trip:
Theres no evidence that this claim and the social media trend that sprang from it were based on anything other than idle gossip.
This claim wasnt derived from photos or videos of Biden, or any credible news reports. This rumor appears to have been started (or at least popularized) by former Nevada Republican Party Chairwoman and frequent Newsmax guest Amy Tarkanian, who posted the following message to Twitter early on Oct. 30:

Did Biden Fart in Front of the Duchess of Cornwall?
An anonymous source told the Daily Mail that U.S. President Biden farted during his meeting with the Duchess of Cornwall. Despite headlines claiming that Camilla Parker Bowles "can't stop talking about it," the Duchess has offered no public comments on the matter. It should also be noted that this rumor started amid a series of unfounded claims regarding presidential farts.
This rumor stems from an article published by the Daily Mail that relied entirely on a single quote from an anonymous source. The Mail wrote:
(snip)
No other evidence has emerged about these alleged emissions. No other sources have acknowledged this possible piece of presidential flatulence, and while a number of news outlets, such as the New York Post and The Sun, have repeated the claim that the Duchess of Cornwall hasnt stopped talking about it, she has not made any public comments about Bidens breaking wind.

Did Biden Fart During a Town Hall?
In October 2021, an unfounded rumor was circulated on social media that U.S. President Joe Biden had pooped his pants during a trip to the Vatican. While this rumor was made up out of whole cloth, it gained traction on social media, where it trended with hashtags such as #poopgate.
The audio of a fart in this video is not genuine. This audio was added to make it seem as though Biden farted during a town hall.

(47,940 posts)Thanks for posting. I can't imagine any of the royals talking about a fart the way this rumor suggests.

(23,058 posts)I'm sure Camilla Parker Bowles (or any other royal) would shake her head and roll her eyes at this story! The other one is even more farfetched.
This just goes to show how desperate the deplorables are to find ANYTHING negative to say about Joe. It must drive them crazy how squeaky clean he is!
This is childish af. Middle School level, at best.
BobTheSubgenius
(12,263 posts)And I agree COMPLETELY with the notion that a royal, or anyone closely associated with them, would EVER comment on something like this.
I know this is a bit far afield, but it demonstrates the importance placed on hyper-politeness in upper crust England. As part of the vetting for a potential new member at a very posh gentleman's club, they would host a dinner to assess the man's manners.
At the end of the meal, he would be served a cherry tart, with the pits left in the cherries, to see how politely he would handle it. Asked how the "recruit" did handle it, a member said "He swallowed them." No black ball there.
So.....yeah.

(10,490 posts)...from disreputable media like the New York Post the Daily Mail are often the same people that complain about Democratic messaging problems. Our so-called allies on the left basically amplify rightwing stupidity and then have the nerve to question why rightwing propaganda is so prevalent and effective.
USAFRetired_Liberal
(4,392 posts)Ignoring the stupidity/propaganda and thinking it is going to go away because it is so ridiculous is the way it festers and becomes prevalent and effective (and thats what Democrats do all the time) .calling it out and challenging the lie, and making people aware is the way to combat the propaganda.

(10,490 posts)You don't need to challenge a story about a fart. Who the fuck cares. If you want to do something that is actually useful, just go on the attack like Republicans do.

USAFRetired_Liberal
(4,392 posts)Thats what we have been doing for the last 40 years, ignoring Republican propaganda and lies thinking that they are so ridiculous that no one will believe it ..they repeat it over and over without a response from us which then becomes ingrained to many Americans as the truth, next thing you know the MSM is reporting on it as if it has merit or they both sides the issue, then Democrats want to respond but by that time its too late .now this fart thing may be to the extreme (but we should point out the Republican stupidity), but I am talking about bigger lies that we ignore without a proper response i.e CRT, death panels, etc

(4,542 posts)Noel has been telling the truth about TFG since he got the nomination.
If anyone doubts it the truth, ask yourself this: How would the most lawsuit happy jackass in the history of the United States not sue if Noel was lying?
This whole story is nothing but more projection by TFG's minions as they mimic their Tangerine Tsar.

there will be rumors circulating that he "fell asleep".
all of this is a coordinated plot by the right to make Joe out to be too old for the job.
Falling asleep and incontinence being issues of old age.

Farmer-Rick
(12,845 posts)Dumpy Trumpy was well know to shit his pants....often, especially when he was nervous, caused by his drug abuse. There are numerous images of him where you can see people looking like the smelled death warmed over and he is sitting in a position most people take when they crap.
So, since their stupid dicktater smells putrid, then every old white man must take a dump in their diapers when they feel nervous or annoyed.
I understand Trump's breath smells like a sewer too. He never brushes his teeth. So, expect that fake story to come out soon only pretending it's about Biden. Trump humpers are use to the smells. They assume everyone is as disgusting as their chosen crap God.
ShazzieB
(23,058 posts)I'm sorry, but this sounds too close to the Biden stories (lies) we've just been reading about for my comfort. I've heard stuff like this lots of times before (and more, like Trump's supposed drug usage), but nobody ever says HOW they know these things or where they heard them. I would really like very much to know.
I usually let this kind of stuff roll right on by, but today my senses have been heightened, and it's making me more skeptical. I am NOT trying to point fingers at you or anyone else, believe me. I'm just not comfortable with statements that start with, "It's well known that..." I think we need to hold ourselves to a higher standard.

https://bleedingcool.com/tv/dave-bautista-claims-donald-trump-wore-diaper-at-wrestlemania-match/
Plus all those video shots out there that either show off the outline of diapers under his pants, weird stains on his pants, people looking like they smelled something awful when near Trump and weird way Trump sits sometimes.
Something is going on in his oversized pants and people think he smells badly.
Farmer-Rick
(12,845 posts)
But it's all over the internet. You can do the leg work if you really are concerned about Trump and his awful smells.
An explicit description:.
"Noel Casler, former talent handler and stand-up comic, worked with Donald during The Apprentice days. Recently he decided to talk about his days working with the president and his teen beauty pageants back in the 1990s. Casler even went to divulge some personal details about Donald as well. He revealed that Donald is a speed freak, that snorts on Adderall. He also revealed that the President used to invite the teen beauty pageant contestants to his suite, as well as using adult diapers.
Sharing this revelation about adult diapers on Twitter, Casler explained that in case anyone does not believe Donald uses adult diapers, he linked a video to watch. He even claimed that Donald was already in need of adult diapers since 2017. He also shared that they would often pause filming due to the Presidents outbursts of not being able to read the cue cards. His outbursts would cause him to accidentally pee on himself, then he would go on to snort more Adderall and change his diapers. They would also pause filming whenever the then-future President would pee on himself."

Again, i don't have 100% evidence of this, but looking at her speak, it seems that i can see shit chips being thrown out of her mouth. It looks gross and smelly and can only be explained, i have to believe, using this explanation.

(3,137 posts)of a rumor like this.
Joe Biden is a pretty old fella and "things" start going haywire eventually, it will happen to all of us one day, like it or not.
My point is that even IF this were true, how would that in any way affect his job performance?
I find the entire thing to be quite juvenile.

President Joe Biden has served this country for many, many years with great honor and hours and hours of public service without rumors of this kind. We all know what DJT did and that is why they are working hard to discredit President Biden. It will not work.
