Trump and Biden Debate Welcome

Text on the meme

“please welcome Donald Trump and Joe Biden to tonight’s debate” E) Talk Mr. House

What it means

The clip begins with a formal announcement welcoming Donald Trump and Joe Biden to a debate, then reveals a mirrored, increasingly dramatic view of Mr. House from Fallout: New Vegas in his life-support chamber. The joke is that the supposed presidential debate is replaced by the unsettling, inhuman-looking Mr. House, with ominous music heightening the absurd reveal. It works as a reaction to an anticipated political spectacle becoming bizarre or horrifying.
