A video of President Biden donning a Trump 2024 hat went viral across X with several shocked that the image was even real.
Biden visited the Shanksville Fire Station Wednesday after participating in a wreath-laying ceremony at the town's memorial site for United Airlines Flight 93, one of the four flights hijacked by Al-Qaeda terrorists on September 11, 2001.
A video of Biden at the station showed the president taking the Trump 2024 campaign hat from a Trump supporter and putting it on top of his own hat, in what the White House said was a friendly gesture of unity.
The image of Biden wearing a Trump 2024 hat quickly took X by storm with many feeling the need to clarify the video was not fake.

White House senior deputy press secretary Andrew Bates confirmed the clip was real but added Biden put on the cap as a sign of unity.
"At the Shanksville Fire Station, @POTUS spoke about the country's bipartisan unity after 9/11 and said we needed to get back to that. As a gesture, he gave a hat to a Trump supporter who then said that in the same spirit, POTUS should put on his Trump cap. He briefly wore it," Bates wrote.
Fox News Digital reached out to the Harris campaign for comment.
Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Trump attended multiple ceremonies honoring the victims of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. The three, along with Republican vice presidential candidate Sen. JD Vance, appeared together during a ceremony at Ground Zero.
