#BidenCalm trends as he yells 'don't jump' at Trump supporter, Internet calls it 'antidote to #TrumpChaos'

The Trump supporter stood on a vehicle wearing a t-shirt that read 'Trump 2020' and yelled through a microphone, 'Hey, Joe. You finally got out of the basement!'

Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden was at Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on August 31, to give a speech from a steel mill regarding the civil unrest in America, as reported by MSN. The former vice president reportedly made a stop to deliver pizzas from Mineos's Pizza to a group of local firefighters. Biden’s visitation went smoothly until one Trump supporter began heckling him as he stood atop his vehicle and reportedly shouted multiple times that Pennsylvania wouldn’t vote for the Democratic presidential candidate in the November elections. 

Biden, however, responded in a surprising manner as he looked at the lone Trump supporter, pulled his mask down, and said, "Don’t jump! Don’t jump!". The video showcasing the former VP's reaction soon went viral as internet users started trending #BidenCalm.

As Biden stepped out of his car after arriving at the firehouse, the Trump supporter stood on a vehicle wearing a t-shirt that read 'Trump 2020' and yelled through a microphone: "Hey, Joe. You finally got out of the basement!," according to Heavy.com. Previously, Trump had taken a dig at Biden and said that he is running his presidential campaign from his basement. In a recent interview with ABC, Biden responded to Trump’s criticism and said, "Guess what. I’ve left my basement, and in the meantime, 500 million individuals have watched what I’ve carried out out of my basement. It’s about being accountable."

Only a few days ago, Twitter saw #TrumpChaos trend following Biden's tweet which talked about Trump instigating violence in the nation. His tweet read, "The President incites violence, inspires white-supremacist shooters, and his failed COVID response is costing thousands of lives per day. When you look at the world right now, ask yourself: Do you feel safe in Trump’s America?" The tweet came in response to Trump’s speech at the Republican National Convention 2020. 

As #BidenCalm started trending on Twitter, internet users took to the social media site to react to Biden’s video, which has already garnered an impressive number of likes and re-tweets. Soon, the majority of the internet users, who were seen supporting the Democratic presidential candidate stated that they choose #BidenCalm over #TrumpChaos. Actress and political activist Alyssa Milano weighed in to express her opinion about the trend and tweeted, "#BidenCalm is the antidote to #TrumpChaos. Pass it on." Adding to her tweet another Twitter user tweeted, "This country needs some #BidenCalm after the hell of #DictatorTrump #TrumpChaos #TrumpTerrorism." 

One tweet read, "After all the last few years what we really need is some #BidenCalm to help America heal. We can't take another minute of this #TrumpChaos #VoteBlueToEndThisNightmare #VoteBlueToSaveAmerica #VoteBidenHarris2020."

Meanwhile, Trump took to his Twitter handle a few hours ago to comment on Biden's statement about White Supremacy in America. His tweet read, "Just watched what Biden had to say. To me, he’s blaming the Police far more than he’s blaming the Rioters, Anarchists, Agitators, and Looters, which he could never blame or he would lose the Radical Left Bernie supports!"
