I had to look up what the "Let's go Brandon" chant was; forgive me for being crass, English isn't my first language but it sounds like they're saying "Fuck Joe Biden". Judging by the comments in the video I saw, I think that is what they're actually saying rather than encouraging the young man being spoken to by the person with the microphone.

The "Let's go Brandon" thing was an almost comical attempt by the news reporter to try to cover up what the chant was.

Yes, people said the reporter was "misreporting" the chant but she was barely containing her laughter and it was clearly a joke. Everyone knew what the crowd was chanting.

I don't think it was a joke, it seemed more like she was lying.

You heard correctly. A reporter said it was "Lets go Brandon" in stark contrast to obvious reality, and the originally Ironic and now more widespread adoption of that has confused the situation further.

You got it right.

That young man must feel so bad for this to be his moment. I hope it doesn't overshadow his other accomplishments.

The actual Brandon thought it was funny, as the chant probably aligned with his personal feelings.

In case anyone else doesn't get the joke, the reporter (as most reporters do) was covering for Biden when she pretended his noisy opposition was something else [1]. In other words, it was an unusually obvious attempt at a tawdry cover-up. Thus, the mockery in calling Biden "Brandon".

[1] It might remind some of this classic scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Kpb8eu1pEY

No, the guy who won the race and had the moment completely taken over, and will probably be the most notable in his career.

*edit- he doesn't seem to mind though

    To all the other Brandon’s out there, You’re welcome!
    Let’s go us

*she. the reporter was a women.

If the reporter lacks credibility with the audience they should be fired If a performer, a wrestler, a musician, an actor loses credibility with there audience, you should get a replacement.

And if my grandma had wheels she'd be a wagon.
