Biden doesn't know what he's laughing at - he's out of it. They had him pumped up on drugs like they did for the SOTU speech. The clown is a shuffling corpse.

@AdamBechtol 13 күн бұрын

More like his timing :( Too used to deliving lines to an almost canned audience of laughter. He paused almost as long as it took him to tell each joke. Really shot himself in the foot with timing.

@dutchymcdutch2553 13 күн бұрын

It's a really tough audience, just look at previous dinners. I think he could have kept a slightly higher speed but the audience really doesn't help.

Thank you for the important work that you do.

I have been a fan of Colin Jost’s work on Saturday Night Live so I was excited to discover how he would handle a star turn at the WH Correspondences’ Dinner. I was delighted by the brilliance and truthfulness of his satire… as well as the deftness with which he balanced the tightrope between comedic skewering and illuminating irony… pushing the envelope quite powerfully but always remaining within the bounds of good taste. Though the crowd squirmed in quiet discomfort at several jokes that hit close to the bone, the overall environment if jovial laughter was in sharp contrast to the ugly moodiness and unfunny tone seen at previous events held during the Trump administration. I can only imagine how that vile soul will respond on Untruth Social, should he view this video, when he awakens from his courtroom slumber and once again breaks wind! Colin Jost shows great promise to one day succeed America’s king of political satire… and though I wouldn’t want John Stewart to step aside anytime soon… I think the future of comedy that gives critical over site to America’s governance is in good hands!
