“Siri” started trending on Twitter as user after user shared the following back-and-forth.

“Hey, Siri, how old is the president?” the user asks.

“Kamala Harris was born 56 years ago, on Tuesday, October 20, 1964,” Siri responds.

“A lot of accounts on the far right are convinced something nefarious is afoot because of a glitch on iOS where if you ask Siri how old the President is, she answers with Harris’ age. Obviously the answer is that Kamala Harris is already secretly President,” journalist Hilary Sargent joked.

Some, like Robby Starbuck, asked Siri how “young” the president is — and he received the same result.

The conservative comedians Kevin and Keith Hodge, known as Hodgetwins, asked, “Has anybody checked in on [Joe Biden] since Siri started saying Kamala Harris was president? Y’all gave that man 24hrs before doing him that dirty?”
