The internet lit up Sunday as online sleuths speculated whether former President Joe Biden had been photoshopped into his family’s Easter photo.
Biden, 82, shared an image on X showing his family gathered on a set of steps in Delaware, noticeably without his embattled son, Hunter Biden.
The former president appeared to be seated on the top step wearing a blue suit, but social media users quickly questioned whether the 82-year-old was actually present for the photo.
“X users noted Biden’s strange hand placement, the lighting on his face and his overall positioning, making it unclear if he’s crouching or sitting behind his family,” the New York Post reported. Jill Biden’s hair appears altered on the right side, where her husband’s suit is, raising concerns.
“I mean this is obviously photoshopped right? Is he supposed to be standing? Crouching down? This doesn’t even look like a plausible physically position guys,” one social media user wrote.
“This is photoshop. Biden face is brightly lit from top/bottom. Everyone else’s is diffused (shaded) Biden has no discernible shadow. Jill casts a shadow, Biden does not. Super awkward body position. Head size doesn’t match depth line. Is [Joe Biden] alive?” wrote another.
“Dude all politics aside, this is so bizarre. I don’t understand the [special] arrangement of Joe in this picture. Everyone in the back row of the photo *except Joe* appears to be sitting. So why isn’t he towering over them? Are we supposed to believe he’s sitting or something?” wrote yet another X user.
