People chanted curses at President Joe Biden's motorcade as it drove through his hometown of Scranton, Pennsylvania, last week.

"F*** Joe Biden" could be detected among the roadside gathering in a video posted to TikTok.

"Welcome to Scranton, PA. Joe," the video's caption reads.

Several "Let's Go Brandon" rap songs have gone viral recently, citing a now-popular incident where a reporter mistook chants of "F*** Joe Biden " in a crowd of NASCAR fans cheering for racer Brandon Brown.

Since the viral mix-up, opponents of the president turned "Let's go Brandon" into a euphemism for disparaging Biden.

Loza Alexander published a rap version of the chant on TikTok, the "Let's Go Brandon Theme Song," which exploded in popularity. The song topped Apple Music's hip-hop/rap chart at No. 1 and came in at No. 2 on the Apple Music top songs list across all genres on Wednesday.

"I did not know it was going to blow up this big, but I did have a feeling that it was going to be something special because I noticed nobody else did a record, nobody else had sampled the vocals," Alexander said. Another musical adaptation of the chant by YouTuber Forgiato Blow also went viral last week .

Biden traveled to Scranton last week to advocate for his economic plan, which has divided Democrats on Capitol Hill.

"Hello, hello, hello! It's good to be home!"

Since the election, President Joe Biden has not skimped on his hometown references.

"The truth is, Scranton isn't my home because of the memories it gave me. It's my home because of the values it gave me," President Biden said. "So, when I ran for president, I came back to Scranton. I came back to Scranton, and I started here in Scranton. And I resolved to bring Scranton values to bear, to make a fundamental shift in how our economy works for working people."

The president touted his infrastructure bill that's currently under debate. He also praised his entire build-back better plan, calling it an effective tax cut for middle-class families, funded entirely by increased taxes on the wealthiest Americans.

"So I'm here today to talk about what's fundamentally at stake right now for families and for our country," President Biden said.

The president talked for nearly an hour, then spent another hour meeting with his followers at the trolley museum before his motorcade made the trip back to Wilkes-Barre Scranton International airport.
