During President Joe Biden’s speech Monday addressing the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling on presidential immunity, users online could not stop commenting on Biden’s alleged newly tanned face.
Some users on Twitter bypassed the president’s thoughts on the SCOTUS ruling, calling out how Biden’s appearance changed from his debate last week against former President Donald Trump. New York Magazine White House correspondent Olivia Nuzzi took to Twitter to post a picture of the president during his speech, commenting on the “bronzer” she believed him to be wearing.

Fox News’ Bill Melugin teased how Biden must have either been “in the sun quite a bit” or that a staffer “hit him with some bronzer.”
Biden has been in the sun quite a bit since the debate or they hit him with some bronzer. Huge difference from last week.

Others online additionally questioned if the president had gotten a spray tan over the weekend.
Takeaway:
With fresh spray tan, Joe Biden reads teleprompter from White House

They gave Biden a spray tan because he looked like a corpse during the debate ☠️

Next time Joe, just let an Alabama sorority girl apply your spray tan.
This is just embarrassing. pic.twitter.com/F2bjXE8fT2

Co-Host of Breaking Points, Saagar Enjeti, highlighted how Biden refused to take questions following his speech, commenting on the “scripted” message while being “caked in makeup.”
Not a single question taken by Joe Biden in his first remarks. Entirely scripted, short, literally caked in make up
Opposite of inspiring

During his debate against Trump last Thursday, Biden spoke in a raspy voice and gaffed multiple times. Roughly midway through the debate, legacy media outlets such as CBS and NBC began to tweet that sources were telling them Biden was suffering from a cold he contracted before the night.
