Does anyone else think it's odd that Jo Jorgensen is popping up all of a sudden?

She's raised a grand total of $31,648 for the Presidential race per OpenSecrets.org. All of a sudden, after polls start showing Biden up by a double digit lead, I'm seeing memes spring up touting her as the perfect candidate (with disparaging and debunked claims against Biden for comparison). It may just be me, but I'm paranoid enough to remember the alternate party candidates that were discovered to be funded by the GOP in prior races.

My guess is that she'll pull a few young white males from the GOP.

It compares her to Sanders and Biden, in an effort to draw all the Sanders votes. I'm sure that if they did a comparison to Trump, it would draw votes away from him, but that doesn't seem to be the goal.
