The Twitter blowback was real.
After sharing a letter about the debunked wage gap from a child named Charlotte on Tuesday, President Biden was met with skepticism —many accused Joe’s staff of faking the correspondence.
A screenshot of “Charlotte’s” error-riddled letter read, “Dear Presitent Biden: I just wanted to tell something not fair to ladies. Men are getting more money then girls. I think you should fix this. Since your the presitent. Even I’m a child and I think we should do something.”
“Joe” responded.
“Charlotte, I couldn’t agree more. Women lose thousands of dollars each year, and hundreds of thousands over a lifetime, because of gender and racial wage gaps,” he wrote. “I’m committed to building an economy where my daughters have the same rights and opportunities as my sons.”

“Sooo, they have staff writing fake notes from children to Biden now… lol,” author and comedian Tim Young wrote.
“Which of your staffers held the pencil in the wrong hand to write this?” The Post Millennial photojournalist Beth Baisch asked.

The conservative commentator and comedy duo the Hodgetwins tweeted, “People actually believe this s—?”
“Holy load of bull, Batman,” MRCTV managing editor Brittany Hughes tweeted.
“1)This letter is so fake that its embarrassing,” former congressional nominee Luke Negron said. “2)The wage gap is even more fake. When you factor in job choice, willingness to work nights/weekends, job danger etc, there is no wage gap. Your ‘wage gap’ comes from comparing a part time female teacher to a full time male engineer.”

Twitter also added a note to Biden’s post:
“The gender pay gap is simply the difference between the average earnings of all men and women working full-time. It does not account for differences in occupations, positions, education, job tenure or hours worked per week. This myth is incorrect and has been debunked.”
