At the White House Correspondents ‘ Dinner on Saturday night, Colin Jost of Saturday Night Live poked fun at President Joe Biden without wasting any time.
Kelly O’Donnell, chairman of the White House Correspondents ‘ organization, gave a brief introduction to the event’s host before thanking her for some of her high school paper clips.
” It’s not really fair”, Jost said. Because the technology was n’t developed when he was in high school, you ca n’t do it for President Biden.
Jost, who spoke after Biden, said he was looking forward to being on stage with the leader “mostly to see if I could find out where Obama was pulling the strings from,” but that it’s not always simple to follow him.
” I mean it’s not always simple following what he’s saying”, Jost said.
The SNL” Weekend Update” host, back off of Biden, addressed the crowd of journalists and celebrities and expressed their gratitude for “how refreshing it is to see a president of the United States address an event that does n’t start with a bailiff saying,” All rise,” before providing an analysis of former President Donald Trump’s trial.
” I would like to point out it’s after 10 p. m. — Sleepy Joe is also alive while Donald Trump has spent the past year in jury every day”, Jost said.
Jost also touched on some polling figures ahead of Biden and Trump’s 2024 general election fight, telling the audience his” Weekend Update” founder- number Michael Che was going to add him,” but in cooperation with President Biden, I decided to lose all my dark support”.
He did however, summarized the November battle between Biden and Trump as one in which” the Republican nominee for president owes half a billion in charges for bank fraud and is now farting himself alive during a movie star calm money test, and the competition is tied.”
” Little makes sense again”, Jost said before juxtaposing Trump,” a famous New York City playboy” who” took abortion rights ahead” with Biden, an 81- year- ancient Catholic “who’s trying to give you your abortion rights back”.
He actually dragged Robert F. Kennedy Jr. into the mixture, tying the independent presidential president’s against- vaccine stance to his 2024 campaign.
” Like his vaccine card says, he does n’t have a shot”, Jost said.
Jost’s most proud moment was probably when he joked about the cocaine he claimed he left at the White House the year before arriving in Washington.

” Luckily, the president was able to put it to good use for his State of the Union” address, Jost said. ” I’m kidding, of course. The president does n’t call it cocaine — he calls it high- speed rail. By the way, can you blame the guy for turning to cocaine? He must have exhausted planning to rig the Super Bowl, rigging the Super Bowl, and preparing to win a second election. He must have orchestrated four separate trials against his rival. Wow”.
After a long pause, he added,” Biden laughed”, as C- SPAN cameras showed the gleeful president.
