Just for fun I told an AI image generator to put Joe Biden's head on a bodybuilder's body, and not only did it do this thing with the suit-vest, it also decided that when you're truly jacked you wear not one but two watches.

Ok sure, Beyonce has a new album, but this bad boy drops two weeks from today
