    You Know what is truly PATRIOTIC? An 81 year old taking the most difficult and stressful job in the world to take actions which benefit as many people as possible under the present circumstances, President Joe Biden.

      But aging is a natural process

    I hate Trump, but the correspondents' speech was mean and no credit to you or Obama. It was like shooting fish in a barrel. Trump was trapped and humiliated while Obama eviscerated him and the audience laughed like school-yard bullies laugh when someone is being beaten up. Neither you, nor Obama, were gentlemen, who still could have been funny without your knives out. While the world couldn't get enough of Obama's wit, I was seeing something wrong. Obama has been cruel to Joe Biden too. What sort of person gets laughs out of running down the man who had been saying he and Obama were best friends, humiliating the only man who could beat Trump fair and square, not with nastiness. Obama seems to enjoy humiliating people who can't fight back. I think you should be ashamed of that speech, not boasting about it.

      Trump is a lifelong bully, held liable for sexual assault, lied about the central park 5 because he's racist, and he is a convicted felon. Someone telling a joke about him, while being joked on themselves, is such a stupid thing to get offended about.

      @jude175 -Are you for real, trump was a public figure, who was sitting in a public place,
      He could have left any time.
      He could have answered the same day or next day
      And trump loved publicity and courted it in anyway possible
      Do you think he was cruel with all the lies he said about Obama ???

    I don’t think he comes across as too old to take us another 4 years of politics in America. 50 years experience with great politicians. How can you beat that. Also 80 and older is not too old.

      Omg. A great man is allowed to age
      This is elder abuse
