The ironic "Let's Go Brandon!" catchphrase – used by American conservatives to criticize President Joe Biden – has officially be around for one year.

The humorous phrase, which originally stemmed from a NASCAR interview, is a G-rated substitute for "F--- Joe Biden" chants that were popular during the COVID-19 pandemic. The explicit saying was recited at sporting events across the country in defiance of the president's coronavirus mandates.
