Dude it reminded me of Anthony jeselnik or shane gillis the way he looks to see if the joke fell flat with the audience or not. I think Colin deserves so much more then the weekend update. He's amazing!
Colin Jost did very well with this. A nice blend of cheeky, witty, a lighthearted teasing, also mixed with honest somber truths and gentle reminders about decency and importance of the press to name a few. He performed wonderfully and I’m glad I sat and listened to him. 👍🏾
@mariletmeris3321 That was, indeed, such a touching thread to interweave with his smart and cutting humor; a truly "decent" note of genuine humanity. 💖😉😊!
Yep. Me too on a few occasions, but many more that I noticed the crowd slow to get it. It was a pretty good performance, well delivered to a very sceptical audience.
Such a warm and touching ending. I think I would love Colin's grandfather as much as Colin does. I am glad Colin's dad was a teacher, his mom a doctor for the NYFD, and his grandfather sounds like the best, the best of the Irish. I love this guy, Colin Jost. Great roots that he has nurtured.
I think my favorite watching again is DOUG and how he understands being the 2nd gentleman. Joke with admiration, not jealousy. How lucky their wives are ❤
@@adamd8442 Do you mean to infer that Jost was only joking when he spoke about his grandfather and his support of Biden and how Jost himself feels about Biden? I can usually tell humor from sincerity. From what I heard, I saw no humor in his closing statement.
Colin did great. everyone needs to have the ability to laugh at themselves and not take everything so seriously once in a while. it can't be healthy to lack humility.
On the contrary. He did not bomb, he shone like a bright light. The truth is what journalism is supposed to embody. He was balanced in his criticism but took the truth to where it is required the most. It was quiet because most in the audience recognized the truth in satire...rather than being duped by opinion based television shows that claim to support journalism when the truth is that their lack of data driven journalism is honestly just propaganda. If you cannot clearly identify the difference then I regret to inform you that you are just not able to think objectively. Again, just an opinion but after I got a handle on his approach I absolutely heard the message. He didn't hide in fear like most he easily revealed, rather he pushed forward to complete on a message that is in my opinion heard by mostly logical and intelligent people. The rest obviously just wont get it...right over their heads. Again, Bravo to Colin Jost.
Oh my heart is full of so much love for that young man what a perfect tribute to a wonderful decent president of our United States. Let’s give him one more term why we worked on the second one.
Biden is a lifelong plagiarist. A plagiarist is a liar and a cheat and a thief of other people's work. Biden has never been a decent politician, person nor father. Shame on your ignorance.
It was important to mention that journalism is not just about dinners in Washington, but also part of it is risking their lives to tell the world whats happening in their world.
Maybe an unpopular opinion but I always thought Colin Jost is the luckiest guy to marry Scarlett Johansson. I now think Scarlett Johansson is the luckiest girl to marry Colin Jost.

@@jameskerr7828 The federal budget is up nearly 50% from 2019. The labor participation rate still hasn't recovered from the pandemic. Inflation over the last four years has outpaced wages. Much of our domestic and foreign policy is broken. When government fails as hard as it has the people in office deserve to be voted out. The shame is there isn't anyone better than Trump as a Republican candidate, but it was inevitable given the political motivation to bringing Trump's court cases (not saying he's innocent).
A man who wanted to Nuke a hurricane, buy Greenland and invade Venezuela. You really think Trump did a good job ? Yes, we think Americans are poorly educated and easy to manipulate - those who thinks Trump is a new Jesus. Are you for real From Europe
@@grben9959 How do you expect the government to work when the Republican side doesn't want it to and people like yourself reward them with votes for doing their best to sabotage it? You mention inflation. A big source of that inflation is that the EU kneecapped itself on energy politics by taking a stand against Russia's invasion of Ukraine. That raised demand on non-Russian oil and gas, which raised the price of American oil and gas, and no president, red or blue, has the tools to do anything about that. The MAGA nonsense about drilling more does nothing to fix that problem. You mention the pandemic. How do you reckon Trump handled the pandemic? Because from where I'm sitting, the US casualties per capita were significantly higher than the best in class countries like Norway and Finland. Even common sense precautions were failed utterly. And hundreds of thousands of people died that probably didn't have to. Lastly, the political motivation to bringing Trump's court cases? What are you on about? He's been allowed to drag those out for ages. Ordinary people doing his documents stunt would've been behind bars right away. Ordinary people violating gag orders as much as Trump does would've been held in contempt and compelled to reconsider their behavior from inside a jail cell. I don't know how the RICO case or the Jan 6 case will turn out, but the hush money case looks a bit hard for him to squirm out of, and he looks so DOA in the documents case. He retained classified documents that he had no legal right to retain, he stored them unsecurely, and he has admitted this voluntarily on camera in Fox interviews. An election win or SCOTUS help seems like the only way he's going to avoid conviction in that one.
Those that attended are not journalists but Democrat Activists calling themselves journalists..They were awarded with Pulitzer Prizes for the Russian Hoax Story and covered up the Hunter Biden LAPTOP FROM HELL story. Utube will never show my comment to you

There were PLENTY more than merely two sides in that room. Yet they still feel compelled to pay homage (even if it's only lip service, or maybe "hand and feet" service with standing applause?) to the concept of decency. Why not try getting off your lazy derriere and waiting in comment threads to throw cheap shots with fragmentary half-thoughts. And you need not quote that New York City real estate conman's fragmentary half-truths to show fake disgust. It only makes you resemble that kind of inanity.

@@grben9959 How do you expect the government to work when the Republican side doesn't want it to and people like yourself reward them with votes for doing their best to sabotage it?
You mention inflation. A big source of that inflation is that the EU kneecapped itself on energy politics by taking a stand against Russia's invasion of Ukraine. That raised demand on non-Russian oil and gas, which raised the price of American oil and gas, and no president, red or blue, has the tools to do anything about that. The MAGA nonsense about drilling more does nothing to fix that problem.
You mention the pandemic. How do you reckon Trump handled the pandemic? Because from where I'm sitting, the US casualties per capita were significantly higher than the best in class countries like Norway and Finland. Even common sense precautions were failed utterly. And hundreds of thousands of people died that probably didn't have to.
Lastly, the political motivation to bringing Trump's court cases? What are you on about? He's been allowed to drag those out for ages. Ordinary people doing his documents stunt would've been behind bars right away. Ordinary people violating gag orders as much as Trump does would've been held in contempt and compelled to reconsider their behavior from inside a jail cell. I don't know how the RICO case or the Jan 6 case will turn out, but the hush money case looks a bit hard for him to squirm out of, and he looks so DOA in the documents case. He retained classified documents that he had no legal right to retain, he stored them unsecurely, and he has admitted this voluntarily on camera in Fox interviews. An election win or SCOTUS help seems like the only way he's going to avoid conviction in that one.
A president who can laugh at jokes aimed at him shows confidence. Trump didn’t go during his term because he couldn't handle it.
Punks generally don't take jokes well.
There is a real chance that he ran for president after Obama made fun. of him at this dinner, out of spite.
Those that attended are not journalists but Democrat Activists calling themselves journalists..They were awarded with Pulitzer Prizes for the Russian Hoax Story and covered up the Hunter Biden LAPTOP FROM HELL story.
Utube will never show my comment to you
Biden does not know where he is , not what they are saying.
Biden knew the script ahead of time , these jokes were lame... Obama took his shots with a great sense of humor , sleepy Joe is a lame duck along with these jokes
Colin Jost absolutely nailed this job. He reads the audience with perfect pitch! Thank you, Mr. Jost, especially for your closing remarks.
Great to watch...a total delight. Thank you.
You know it's a great roast when the audience is clearly watching out for which jokes to laugh at. 😂
my heart breaks for Americans who cant see that Trump is a con artist tearing us apart for his own power.
Might be a con artist.... That takes brains. Where's Biden is a liar to Americans. He's slapped us all in the face. He needs to be buried. I noticed Dr. Jill was absent last night.
you mean the guy who hasnt relinquished government power for the last 50 years doesnt want power too???? is wanting to be the president bad?
you actually believe that? That's insane. wow, amazing how you got 82 likes so far for a comment that has no basis in reality. The Democrats are the power-hungry demons. They couldn't care less about anyone or anything other than power.
Nothing has changed from the 1930s ppl embrace fear and anger.
Bro that describes most of Washington. Do you really think that Biden, Harris, and whoever the GOP VP pick aren't that too?
No words, just 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂👏👏👏👏👏👏👏intelligent, respectful and very very witty!
Well done. 👏 Jokes were directed @ both sides & even @ himself. He hit the nail on the head imo in reference to decency in his closing. His grandfather would be proud- bold & gutsy.
there is something so visceral about watching a president laugh at jokes about himself. i'll miss this
The jokes that were met with silence or "oooohhhh"s were the best ones, if only for the reactions making them funnier. lol
Him:"High-speed rail"
Her: " Wooo thass good!" Lmao 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
Absolutely brilliant. And President Biden laughed just as much as anyone. Imagine Dozin’ Don doing the same? Nope, me neither.
Donnie Dumb, the insane corrupt criminal, would (let somebody) take notes and take revenge later.
That's why he doesn't attend.
@@goettling Trump couldn't handle this. The Malignant Narcissist has no sense of humor about himself........but he love making fun of immigrants and people with medical disorders.
I'm pretty sure Trump just looked pissed off through this event when he was there
@subscribo2059We may be haters, but we still all have our money and dignity
How many NFT’s you got? 😂😂😂
"Decency" certainly warranted that standing ovation, Colin!
They all stood, except the fox news croud
@@todd-617 That's Fox "News" for ya, for sure. By the way, I admire your avatar tribute to the Tsar Vlad invaded and oppressed nation and the people of Ukraine!
yea super "decent" of them all to be wholeheartedly complicit of genocide and gaslighting anyone that rightfully challenges their narrative. Fine people on both sides in that room. This is some real 1984 ish...
@@lostagain7292 Perhaps you might study the works of Orwell, each and every one of them thoroughly before you come down with simpleton "both sides" pettifoggery? There were PLENTY more than merely two sides in that room. Yet they still feel compelled to pay homage (even if it's only lip service, or maybe "hand and feet" service with standing applause?) to the concept of decency. Why not try getting off your lazy derriere and waiting in comment threads to throw cheap shots with fragmentary half-thoughts. And you need not quote that New York City real estate conman's fragmentary half-truths to show fake disgust. It only makes you resemble that kind of inanity. And finally with you forevermore, I'm completely against the Israeli national military occupying the land and taking 10's of 1,000's of innocent Palestinian lives in one of the worst bloodbaths of this 21st century, you frivolous armchair puny pundit.
I love Colin's face of "I can't believe I get to do this" lol
Love me an extra 20 minutes of Weekend Update mid-week!
“A night to remember… for most of us.” 👀 was my favorite 😂😂
His eyes the whole time- funniest part 👀😂
Love the folks who even if roasted laughed Colin awesome
Colin Jost said it plainly, " Mr President, you are a decent man. That why we voted for you, a decent man."
Decent man gives away 80 Billion $ in weapons to an enemy we fought for 20 years? What Crazy pills you on Fool?
Colin Jost's characterization of Biden as a 'decent man' prompts a compelling association with the well-known concept of the 'Naked King Syndrome.' It highlights the implied disparity between perceived decency and the qualifications necessary for leadership.
Decent man giving aid to a war criminal lol
Best corr. dinner speaker ever. Jost is so funny and not cruel like every other speaker I’ve seen.
when he busted out the first Wordle joke I clapped out loud in my room
The former pres never went to these dinners due a fragile ego.
He literally went on a show called “The Roast of Donald Trump” 😂😂
Hahahaha. .... Don't you know when Trump the president he cancelled all this stupid dinner events. An event for donors and the media people. Trump did not give a F*CK about this people.
@@Utopia878where the roasters where told not to go off the scripted jokes Drumpf has to approve of ahead of time.
@@theminoritiesreportpodcast4997 what does drumpf mean?
@@arcadiagreen150 his real family name.
Now I know Johansson has a sense of humor knowing she married him.🤣
Colin is a national treasure!
The final White House correspondents dinner……quite right Colin.
He very much deserved that standing ovation.
