A wild conspiracy theory has begun circulating on social media over claims that President Biden did not sign his resignation letter.
The 81-year-old announced he was withdrawing from his presidential race by sharing a letter on social media on Sunday afternoon.
Since then, speculation has begun to mount, with conspiracy theorists analyzing its authenticity and some believing that he never actually signed the letter himself.
His signature on the letter shared on Sunday shows his name underlined, something some commentators say he has never done before.
Billionaire Bill Ackman has been one of those who has shared the theory online, frequently posting different versions of his signature on his X profile.
The 81-year-old freedman announced he was withdrawing from his presidential race by sharing a letter on his social media on Sunday afternoon.
His signature on the letter shared on Sunday shows his name underlined, which some commentators say he has never written before in the past.
Ackman, 58, shared a post that read: “Lol there’s no way Biden didn’t even sign the letter,” alongside an image of different versions of his signature.
While another person posted: ‘Wow. Look at the B, totally different between the last version and the previous ones.
‘Jr. is also omitted from the most recent ‘signature.’ Wikipedia has a strange practice of including signatures; its copy also doesn’t match the handwriting.
“Now the question is not just who wrote the letter, but who signed it. This really looks like a coup.”
Another commenter added: “This is a conspiracy theory I can get behind. Biden is dead or something.”
While others have said that without any physical proof that he signed the letter, be it a video or a photograph, they will never believe he signed it.
One person posted: ‘There is no presidential seal, the signature is incorrect and there is no video. I say it’s a lie until I see the Biden video.’
The president was in isolation for Covid-19 at his vacation home in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, when his team drafted the letter.

Donors had pulled millions of dollars in funding, the list of Democrats telling him to drop out grew by the day and polls suggested his chances of beating Donald Trump were dwindling after his disastrous debate performance.
Jill Biden was there when her husband finally made the historic call, bowing to mounting pressure.
A spokeswoman for the First Lady said it was the President’s sole decision and confirmed that she was late.
Following her announcement, Kamala Harris announced that she would run for the Democratic presidential nomination.
Speaking to CBS, his younger brother, Frank Biden, said the president’s health was part of his decision to step down.
He told the outlet: “I’m incredibly proud of my brother. Selfishly, I’m bringing him back so we can enjoy whatever time we have left.”
That choice of phrase prompted speculation from Ackman and others that Biden has a secret illness that he has not disclosed.
A leading Parkinson’s disease specialist has visited the White House several times this year, though officials have insisted Biden is in good health.
“He is a genuine hero, his country is above himself; it sounds corny in our cynical political climate, but neither he nor I are cynical,” Frank’s statement continued.
“The goal remains the same: to defeat Trump and continue the work that Joe has done. My hope is that our party will unite around this heroic act.”
Asked by the outlet if his brother’s overall health influenced his decision not to run for reelection, he said, “In my humble opinion, absolutely.”
On Saturday night, Biden called to his side two men who have been there since his early days in politics, advisers Steve Ricchetti and Mike Donilon.
It was Ricchetti and Donilon who provided devastating new data that would help Biden make his decision.
They revealed the latest internal campaign polls, conducted since the debate, showing that he could no longer beat Trump.
Biden made the decision shortly afterward, asking Ricchetti and Donilon to begin drafting a letter and start the process of how to make a public announcement, DailyMail.com confirmed. The president also began telling his family.
Following her announcement, Kamala Harris announced that she would run for the Democratic presidential nomination.
Several prominent Democrats have since come out in support of Harris, including California Gov. Gavin Newsom.
