Google search requests for “Is Biden Dead” have surged past “Donate to Kamala” amid growing speculation over Joe Biden’s whereabouts since he dropped out of the 2024 presidential race on Sunday.
A Google Trends graphic shows that in the past 24 hours, searches for “Donate to Kamala” have flatlined while searches for “Is Biden Dead” skyrocketed as questions swirl over his exit from the race when he issued a statement via X and has not been seen publicly since July 17.

Biden’s letter raised even more eyebrows because it did not include an official presidential letterhead and his signature was suspiciously different from his previous signatures.
Biden’s conspicuous absence from the public eye has even prompted media pundits to question why he hasn’t shown his face following his historic announcement.
“They didn’t even release a White House still photograph,” Fox News host Dana Perino pointed out Monday. “Nothing! I hope he’s fine. You can forgive people for wondering if we are really living Weekend at Bernie’s right now. Like, proof of life, please.”

Instead of proof of life, White House physician Kevin O’Connor released an update on Biden’s health Monday after he supposedly contracted COVID-19 last week and went into quarantine at his Delaware home.
“President Biden completed his tenth dose of PAXLOVID this morning. His symptoms have almost resolved completely. His pulse, blood pressure, respiratory rate and temperature remain absolutely normal. His oxygen saturation continues to be excellent on room air. His lungs remain clear.”
“The President continues to perform all of his presidential duties,” he added.

But many don’t find this letter reassuring without physical or visual proof of Biden’s condition, especially in the wake of dropping out of the 2024 race.
Biden’s official account posted a quick assurance that he can be depended upon to execute the duties of the presidency, prompting the End Wokeness account to ask, “Can you hold up today’s newspaper for us?”

As long as Biden remains out of the public spotlight, speculation and conspiracy theories about his condition will continue to mount.

Unless Joe Biden doesn’t show sign of life soon, I think it’s fair to assume he’s gravely ill, if not dead.

Speaking of proof of life, Biden reportedly just called into a rally for Kamala Harris to reassure the American people that he’s doing well and is confident he made the right choice to endorse his vice president to be the presidential nominee.
