President Biden took the stage at the annual White House Correspondents Dinner on Saturday and cracked jokes about his old age.
Biden spoke before a crowd of nearly 3,000 journalists, celebrities and Washington insiders at the Washington Hilton in Washington, D.C., as hundreds of anti-Israel protesters rallied outside.
The black-tie annual event gives Biden a major platform to speak to voters — and flex his sense of humor — while his approval rating sits at a historic low ahead of the November election.
Biden, 81, made jokes to make light of voters’ concerns about electing him into office for another four years in his advanced age. The 2024 election is in full swing.

Nothing new. His mere presence is a joke. He lies when he opens his mouth.

And the dutiful media will show clips of this (while hiding things like him speaking too a group of veterans while having his back to them), andi will talk about how "alert, charming, and witty " he was, and how they can't detect any evidence of mental decline, so forget about that!
These people are truly despicable and completely culpable for the damage being done to this country.

I usually pay zero attention to this smarmy self love event. It won’t move the needle on Biden’s humiliating poll numbers one iota. I do have a problem when the lawfare tactics, fully backed by and coordinated with the WH to attempt to jail Biden’s opponent, are joked about with his media cronies. Our DOJ is a corrupt disgrace. This is a very perilous matter and not the least bit funny.

Also, how rich of JOE. BIDEN. to mock Trump, or anyone else, as disregarding the first commandment! Despite him crossing himself at COMPLETELY inappropriate (and, in the case of the abortion gathering, blasphemous) times, there's never been a politician more enamored with himself than this clown, Biden. His god truly resides in his mirror. And it's not just the 1st commandment he has broken. He certainly wasn't worried about the 8th commandment when he spent years lying about the man involved in the accident with his first wife. And, if rumors about he and Jill are true, the 6th didn't mean much to him, either. .He's also needlessly crude and vulgar. Not to mention the man lies like the serpent in the garden. And he does so with impunity, then hides behind God and his "Catholic faith" to try to cover himself when needed. He's a disgusting, filthy, hypocrite. And while Donald Trump has made statements that could lead one to doubt whether he truly understands Christianity, and his support of LGBT causes is definitely bothersome, that only indicates he's in a place to be reached. He certainly does not use God to promote things that are contrary to God's Word, and he has shown benevolence to Christian beliefs and ideals. Joe, on the other hand, the "good catholic boy", who, one assumes, was catechized, should know better. Instead, he mocks God and his Word regularly. So, we have a person who may not be truly converted, and a lifelong "Christian" who brings scorn and derision daily on Christ and his church - guess which one is worse, Joe.
Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap.
For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.
(Galatians 6:7-8)

#3, I caught that, as well! He's been doing that quite a bit lately. That's his nature - he cheats and lies, then has to let everyone know that he can get away with cheating and lying. He has to run everyone's face in the fact he operates above the rules and the law. And his supporters lap it up and laugh along with him.

This event was even worse than the last two and those that took place during the Obama occupation. I couldn't stomach more than five minutes of it. The "comedian" Vos was especially pathetic. He paused frequently for laughs but received none except from the overweight media putzes who were there for the meal.

“His mere presence is a joke.” Precisely. Biden is a buffoon, a walking punch line at his expense. Biden speech was rude and partisan. He has no timing. The comedian bombed.

I appreciate # 4 mentioning the lies about the truck driver whose life Biden ruined with his proven false allegations. He has always been a jerk. Now he is an old jerk

My how "pResidential" of him. That's all he's ever done since he "Borked," the ever honorable, genius jurist, Judge Robert Bork PedoJoe, valiant victor over Corn Pop, is nothing but a punk bully who runs a family crime syndicate. It will all come out in the long run, and then the Demonrats will be well along promoting their next great fraud, responding, "Joe who?," when asked, just like they do today with, "Lyndon who?," and, "Jimmy who?"

When Biden read the message placed on a teleprompter for the puppet Biden to read, that was nothing out of the ordinary as Biden is always 101% politically partisan and he showed that in a nasty way as has been his custom. Actually the funniest part was when the comic Colin Jost at the end of his bogus series to joke telling, some designed to slam Trump that got only a little applause from the audience, compared Biden with his dead, said to be Irish, grandfather who Jost claimed were both “decent” men in Jost’s mind, and announced that his grandfather in the last election before he passed away voted for Biden. Obviously by going private Jost was attempting to set up a career “life insurance” like policy for himself that was aimed at the mostly all very liberal media and TV network top dogs in the audience to the affect that he was just as liberal minded politically as they are! The Democrats are now claiming that if Trump is elected in November that last night would be the last such correspondents dinner and that sounds about right, as why would Trump waste his time to attend such a partisan leftist or liberal Democrat dominated highly adverse and politicized affair?

How did ridiculing Trump at the 2011 WHCD AKA "Nerd Prom" work out for Obama? This year, they're whistling past the graveyard, because they know that Trump killed their little schiff show for the four years he was in office and will do it again. You can bet that no one from a Trump administration will show up.
