How is President Biden going to handle the WH correspondent dinner

when he is so old and doddering? You know, would it be too much for the White House correspondents to mention that the "vigorous" cheato was too chicken to attend one during his presidency? Even before Covid, he was too thin skinned and we all know he has no sense of humor.

Come on, press corp, would it kill you to give Joe his due for showing up and taking hits and returning normalcy to the WH?

The camera was on him from the side, so you just saw him in profile, facial expression STONE COLD. Didn't react. It's like he has no sense of humor. He has no grace and congeniality to laugh and enjoy even when comedians rib him. Just Mr. Party-Pooper of the Modern Era. I suspect the worst thing anybody can do to him is laugh at him. So I hope we ALL do!!! And as often as possible! And why not? He's the Worst Walking Fart Joke that EVER had the nerve to suck air off our planet. And smells accordingly.

I’m rooting for Dark Brandon to show up and in his sweetest, Uncle Joeist way, nail both the press and off to every wall in the place.

I suppose she could be a guest of one of the invitees, or at the MSNBC table. I've been watching and haven't seen her.
