It was traditional for presidents - until Trump ducked it, either because he can't bear to be laughed at or because he doesn't want to be in a mixed group where not everyone supports him. It's traditionally a sociable way that presidents acknowledge the First Amendment. where presidents are supposed to be able to take some (humorous) heat, and dish it out, too.

It also helps that Biden is unaware of who Brandon is.

Nice? Who gives a ****. How about not starting WW3. Not having rampant inflation or sniffing 6 year old girls? That’d be NICE

Yeah.


Because the guy who had the Deep State and the Media coming at him constantly, 24/7 for 5 full years had to "duck" the hardcore White House Kiss Ass Dinner.



Trevor dunked on Biden only once BTW. And I'm sure the Potato was informed ahead of time.


Stunning and brave.

As horrible as Biden* has been as president, and with his numbers collapsing, he sorely needs his sycophants to fawn over him to boost his spirits.

This shindig was completely unnecessary.
Biden is a living (?), breathing joke every day of his sad, pathetic, corrupt, imbecilic life.

One day I'll tell ya how I really feel about Mr. Potato Head.

Biden's joke about the media having lower approval ratings than himself is funny because it is true.

The mainstream media has proven to be dictionary definition propaganda too often.

It's only fitting, being that the "Correspondents" are as clueless as brandon. They are probably the only people that can understand what the demented old fool is saying.

You forgot to explain the asterisk.


But I think I know what you were getting at
