"Like many of you here tonight, I pretend to do news on TV."
You bunch of sellout hacks Trump 2024 bitches
This closed out the thread.
Thank you and goodnight!
@@ronaldkonkoma4356😅😂
The truest statement ever made.
SNL yoyo FINALLY got something right.
I think his jokes were too honest for that crowd.
Yep. DEMORATS don't like being made fun of, for their OWN LYING CROOKED BEHAVIOR
It takes an incredibly talented comedian to *not* tell jokes that hard...
he was as nervous as a little-girl with nice-smelling hair 😂
I think they were fine for that crown. I don't know about some that weren't in the crowd, but I don't care.
You should watch Trevor Noah's hosting, I think it was 2 years ago.
it is a very sensitive crowd.
One of my favorite lines was when he said that he thought he saw Matt Gaetz but then realized it was his own reflection on the back of a spoon😂😂😂.
I legit cackled at that one
A distorted reflection 😅
That kind of stuff is what separates the really good comedic minds.
Yes! That was good.
I had to think for a second and imagine josts distorted forehead! His jokes made you think, loved it!
The ‚anti-woke‘ joke was a grower
It was a good “dad joke” 😊
Yeah🎉
Where is Jill and who is that lady next to Joe?
@@leviashanken2506 Exactly what I was thinking!! Looks like they hired an actress to play "DOCTOR" Jill Biden. I wonder if they still call Bill Cosby "DOCTOR Cosby".....
@@spidgeb3292 I saw Jill later a few seats to his left. Could that one be his daughter or too old?
That Mitch McConnell line was perfect.. 😂
“Seen here watching an ambulance crash into a power line.”
Matt Gaetz is at regular prom 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
His reflection on the spoon made me die.
Hunter biden is at a kindergarden looking for someone to root lol. Democrats are not the good guys mate......
Nah, his prom date isn't born yet.
@@Tempo_GiganteHow's radical DEMOCRAT Eric Swalwell's CCP GIRLFRIEND SPY doing???😂😂😂
Wait, what? When was Xi Jinping going to tell me he has a spy in Congress?!@@whicker59
His closing about his grandfather was beautiful.
Decency is what America needs again.
Yea trump deleted decency, sadly many lost it too because of him … like mtg, boebert, gaetz ….🙂↔️
You are NOT getting any decency from any of that crowd who attended. GET REAL! An adult in diapers crying about his grandpa...seriously. BS. all of it. not reporting the truth or addressing the 100+ journalists killed by Israel????? you call that decent?
Amen!!
As soon as the Biden Crime Family is out of office we can only pray that he will be held accountable for his and his families crimes
@@jcrifno proof of crime bark louder
"Solve the national debt problem by shorting Trump stock" underrated joke that didn't seem to get any laughs
That was a good line!
because I think alot of them did it to solve their personal debt problems
Yes! These jokes were smart, you needed to think a bit! Loved it
Just a reminder that Trump canceled the correspondence dinner after his first year because he got butt hurt
Yep, and all his little worshipping muppets said nothing about what a humorless weak tool he was for that.
The Jeff Ross roasts are so good it was pointless for him to try to follow up with this.
Trump did not go to the dinners, but he did not cancel them. They weren't his dinners to cancel.
@@HeyJoeyVegas that's okay
This was the first time most people in that room were face to face with Joey Amtrak
Because his Press Secretary, Now Gov. Sara Huckabee Sanders was fat shamed by a reporter at that event. It was terrible what she did
Americans should never take for granted their ability to speak their mind without consequences. It’s very rare in the world
college students are starting to question that...
@@alexbabinski7318 Democrats are getting eaten up by the monster they created.
Tell that to protesting US University students.
😂 unless you criticize the arms lobby or the Israel lobby or just Israels' settler policy. Then you are a pariah.
@@alexbabinski7318 College students didn't allow Ben Shapiro and Candace Owens to speak on college and now they cry free speech lol.
The NYT was really butt-hurt by the Wordle joke! Their headline was "Colin Jost Falls Flat at the WH Correspondents Dinner"! Talk about being petty.
lmao I thought this the moment I saw that headline
They're not wrong though. He was super nervous and it hurt his energy.
That headline made me come here and watch it, maybe a bit nervous, but nah these jokes killed it! All of them zingers 😂
dam tough crowd i thought he was really good!
I feel like most of the jokes were said when we expected a joke, reducing the comedic effect
@@raglandasir6885 yes the crowd was prepared to be jolted
@@raglandasir6885 Of course they were. That's why they hired him to do the gig.
Colbert said may years ago that you have to play to the crowd outside of the room. That was one of the best WHCD speeches ever and the room as definitely not as receptive either.
Seems like the crowd is always tough at this event
"I didn't know there WAS a stepdown from Fox News."....The best line of the night.
At least when Fox fires someone they don't bring them back like CNN and Jeff Toobin.
Yep too bad it was said in the first two minutes.
"Like many of you here tonight I pretend to do news on TV "
That was a pretty good one.
Funny how Fox news ratings are better then CNN MSNBC and the rest of the fake news networks 😂
It went right over the head of that cow chomping his gum at the Faux News table 😂😂😂
“My weekend co-anchor was gonna join me here tonight, but in solidarity to President Biden, I decided to lose all my black support” greatest and truest line of the night🤣🤣🤣
"room just froze faster than Mitch McConnell" did not get nearly enough laughs! I was howling when he said that. hahaha
The part about people watching on C-SPAN at home 😂 it me.
I was listening on C-SPAN radio!
I wasn't but when I heard he was the host I almost became one of you 😂
Watch out for your cats!
Just for the naysayers they have been doing this dinner since 1921.
Right . The only President to never attend, was Donald Trump. President Calvin Cooliage was the first President to attend in 1924.
When Trump was in they didn't do it, because he's such a candy ass and can't take a joke!
And only one President never attended a single one....
So the cadaver and chief was at the first one and is dead at this one😂
@@shawnsdr3406 like Collin said, you have to pick one. Is he a senile old man or a criminal mastermind?
Edit: I thought I better clarify🤣. These are the two main talking points from the right. Well, that and the fear mongering.
I actually laughted more than I have in a long time. Great job by Jost.
I thought so, too. People gonna complain about anything. He did great!
Damn, tough crowd. The set was great but some of the jokes went over like Che was playing another April fools joke.
this comment is made every year, and I believe the answer is that it's a big flat room that doesn't carry sound that well, so it sounds more quiet than it is.
Lots of Republican defenders in that crowd and they lost their collective ability to laugh after the 2020 election.
Which, by the way, was one of Colin's jokes.
Omg !!!!! That last 5 minutes, should be President's Campaign 💙🇺🇸💙
Colin's was poignant, a sober reflection on the very substance of today's division, lack of decency as entertainment which isn't a reason to cast a vote against "OUR" progress.
BIDEN has a CAMPAIGN? 😂😂😂😂😂
How's Biden's poll numbers n RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA and CHIIIIIIIIIIINA?? 😂😂😂
It’s not only his campaign. It’s his life compass. It’s also his administration, both his first and his soon-to-be second administration. 🇺🇸
@@whicker59 "I'm not trump" is enough to win, sadly.
Well done. Human decency is important.
Yup. It's good to know that decency is... _tied_ with indecency in America right now, huh? Jebus, what has become of us? :(
His son has him saved on his phone under the name "Pedo Pete", his daughter took showers late at night to avoid Joe Biden jumping in with her. He sniffs and gropes children on camera. The man's a nonce but that's apparently fine(!), so long as he's a Democrat. Mind you, it's the same crowd that wants graphic porn in schools, so why would they have a problem with him? He's playing to his crowd.
Nobody wants Genocide Joe.. you guys are so out of touch with his voter base.
They
Decency? Where have you found it? It’s been an Open indecent flattery ! You know this kind of speech usually was delivered to Stalin, Khuschev, Brezhnev and other politburo leaders of the former Soviet Union. The key word here is ‘the former Soviet Union’! And laughing and ovation from the useful idiots is priceless! Thank goodness, your opinion is valuable only to this trained bunch.
@@polinafrid8868or by a Democrat who recognizes that Republicans have forgotten about human decency, and you sir are a perfect example of that lack of human decency,or you listened to too many Russian speeches,or to Tucker Carlson.
Colin did a great job.
Bringing it back around to full earnestness at the end with his Grandpa was a solid choice. Most close out with a self depreciating bit about how they don't deserve to be up there. This was different. I enjoyed it.
Yes, very touching
no, he didn't. His jokes were flat and he applauded these cable news people rather than holding them accountable for the war crimes they're helping to cover up in America's next Forever Wars. Indecent.
What a tough crowd, but way to go! And to finish it off w/ some decency, 'from most of you'... LoL!
Children are dying and the elites are pretending they aren’t making money off it. Some things never change.
Yeah I imagine the corporate news people don't like being insulted on stage. Glad they were though
Can we just acknowledge how refreshing it is to see a president of the United States at an event that doesn't begin with a Baliff saying 'All rise".
Or having to repeatedly hear the words “witch hunt, rigged, stolen, corrupt“ etc.
Joe is the criminal. And they all know it.
Perfect! We’ll played!!🇺🇸🇫🇷🇺🇸
💯💯🤦♀️@@courtney-rw8ch
😂😂😂😂😂
I love that after the Obama puppet strings joke Joe did little marionette arm movements. Good sport!
He delivers like he does on SNL, one punchline at a time 😂.
My favorite joke was the one about how out of touch everyone there was laughing while children are starving to death all while their portfolios grow 😂😂😂 Classic elites 🤣 they never change
@@NickLujan 👍
It was very good. He did well, if you dont offend some your not doing your job !
His delivery was underwhelming, but PERFECT for the conclusion, as decency needs no momentum
@@macswanton9622 His delivery was classic Colin Jost. That's exactly his delivery on SNL. That's what he was hired to do.
@@pdlister He was the right choice. I haven't watched SNL for forty yrs. 🙃
who exactly did he offend? Exactly?
@@JeremyS.-ug3sp - didn't you watch it? He dropped some zingers on Biden and Trump, Fox News, NYT, and the audience in general. Watch it, again, and you'll hear them.
Bravo Colin🎉✌🏼tough crowd, you were a little easy on them, but classy.
Meet my wife after the ceremony - I would really capitalize that😂😂
Colin Jost was excellent! Really great job!!
he sucked ass so bad
Colin nailed it. Atta boy! Now if the Supreme Court can come to their sense we might still have a democracy.
We don't live in a democracy, champ.
the Supreme Court, with its recent additions especially, are proof and product of the fact that our democracy is only nominal
@sirbader1 we are a Constitutional Republic, which in four history classes, I attended, we are also a Democracy. Universities different?
@@sirbader1We vote for representatives, therefore a Democracy as well!!!
@@annedouglas9769 thank you, Anne.
Colin's best joke was the one the Michael Che wrote
😂😂😂😂
100% all he talked about was Biden and trump. No wonder snl ratings are so low.
@@lukelee3 umm.. considering the venue, it seems appropriate…
@@lukelee3 This is the White House Correspondent's Dinner, the whole point of it initially was to show that we're such a free and fair democracy that comedians and newscasters can make fun of the president right in front of him, it's a symbolic thing
@@user-mw9bd2ey6s you’re probably right. NAH
Screw the haters. Colin did great. I laughed and at the end I cried. Bravo!
😂👌 and 😢 I did too!!
Same here. Unexpected turn at the end, had me in tears as well.🥲 Really, really good job Colin.
It was brilliant!!
Decency could leave the room quicker than we think.
Crying libtard tears...You should cry when you have to pay For Groceries and bills that are almost twice as much because of this incompetent Administration!
That cute f*kr made me cry. My all-time favorite was the zing that Biden remembers that Staten Island sided with the British during the American Revolution. My second favorite moment was Colin thanking his wife and how she had agreed to meet everyone there.
Solid performance. Terrible crowd.
Cause it was FILLED WITH NYC & DC DEMOCRATS
The awful crowd made it funnier for me.
Way to go Colin! Tough room, but you crushed it.
I listened to it a second time and it sounded much better. Did C-SPAN turn down the volume o the laugh track during the live? 😮😊
libertarian party 2024.
free Palestine from Israel
Did he😂😂😂 he bombed
He was garbage
I appreciate Colin's respectful humor at this event ... decency.
That's why there were a few golf claps.
Shane Gillis 2025
Thought he saw Matt gaits but it was his own reflection in a spoon…on fucking point, right there!!
I laughed too hard at that! 😂😭💀
Me to 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@user-mw9bd2ey6s cos spoons warp your reflection and he's saying his own warped reflection would look quite similar to matt gaetz's actual face
@@carn9507I though it was because SNL Boy was scared of his own reflection/shadow 😂
My favorite joke!😊
Go Colin, not easy making white collars laugh. Forget the political jokes, wife “hates privacy” she can’t be mad cause you Thanked her…
Calling someone decent may seem like a weak complement. It is the best complement that there is.
"Decency" something we could use a lot more of.
Does decency mean allowing unlimited criminals to cross the borders? I'd prefer sense over decency then.
@@stevenmorrow9922
Try following some decent reporting instead of propaganda outlets
@stevenm....LOL you really are lost aren't you. Stop believing everything that the right tells you and educate yourself and stop being a sheep.
palestinians would strongly disagree that the current president has any sense of decency!
@@stevenmorrow9922 LOL you MAGAts are a hoot
It’s the”that’s good!” lady for me.
haha yea!
Good god hopefully this is not the last and democracy lives on 😅
We are not losing democracy because of who is the president but because US citizens are losing more and more of their rights through social justice agendas and corporations abuse of power.
Regardless of who wins the next election, anyone who thinks that if one side, or the other, wins, then we might be headed towards not being a democracy, well, that person is being hysterical and should see a doctor...the European kind of doctor.
@@rhymeswithteeth why this came up on my notifications I have no idea. But yeah, listening to Biden for God knows how long, gaslighting Americans that their reality is wrong and that the economy is GREAT. And then following it up with, "If you don't vote for me democracy die." Pair that with, "if you don't vote for me then you ain't black." Gas lighting in a relationship is abusive. Why we have tolerated it from those who are in office or trying to get into office to rule over us is astounding to me. Don't even get me started on Trump....
you think you live in a democracy... how adorable
Loved the way he sheepishly looked around and giggled at himself.
❤❤ looking so beautiful
The person in the background that kept saying “woo that’s good”😂😂
Colin did have jokes but he also brought his heart and put it into this.
Excellent host
Brilliant. Sharp. Pulled no punches. you can smell the nature of the crowd, when Jost quipped about needing Tik Tok to document the next assault on the Capitol; nobody laughed.
seems like there were more right wingers in attendance, this time.
I think nobody laughed because they don't find it that much of a joke and also they all must be super worried about people getting their media from tiktok. As they are losing a whole generation.
You can tell from the clapping at the other jokes the majority was left leaning to some degree
Decency should be the name of the game in tis election
Decency should be the name of the game in every election.
Wonderful job, Mr Jost. And very touching comments at the end.
Did u 😢 all the way thru show?
A brilliant closing speech. 🎉
The CSPAN joke never misses 😮
and Hilton jokes :D
Absolutely textbook. I don't think you can nail the balance of making fun of the president to his face while also staying classy better than this.
👩🎤 I would love to see Colin and Michael Che 2gether doing this annual dinner event. They’re great as a team on SNL.
Colin made fun of the orange toddler, some repuglicans and even President Biden...about that!!!....but in all seriousness, mentioning his deceased grandfather and comparing him to President Biden was very sweet ...Colin Jost was a Hit tonight!!!
The 'deceased this year' part was truly sneaky!
oh please
Good stuff Collin
The black support joke was hilarious.
I really enjoyed his jokes, he made me laugh 👏 😁
👍😂…ikr?
Nailed it!
Good job Colin!
Beautiful damsel
Just imagine what Don Rickles would have done at this diner.
The only blowing in this crowd tonight, is the breeze that whistles between the ears of all the people with no sense of humor.
It's not a diner; it's a dinner.
Blue plate special diner, by the looks of the crowd.
Wow. Epic thought ❤
“There’s no booing, there’s no booing”
Highbrow humor has its' critics. Many of them have commented here already. Lucky for them, spell check is a thing.
"Its'"? Gtf outta here.
You apparently don’t have spellcheck? But yes. I agree. Many of the people commenting must’ve thought they were watching a stand up routine and are critical of the jokes or what he chose to speak on. I’d like to see them do this. Colin killed it.
Its is the possessive. Don't need apostrophe. Whew.
Well done 👍🏾 CJ especially the closing about “decency”
He does well bombing. He learned how to live in the awkward silence after a punchline like he is having fun, even if others aren't. You win if you just don't show fear.
Colin Jost, killed it. Classic.
Someone on SNL was funny? Who, where, when?
I think you mean Biden killed it and by it I think you meant 15,000 children?
Hey he got a standing ovation by at least half. Colin was great!
Damn C-Span, stop bumping the camera
Hard to stabilize a handycam on a pocket tripod.
@@The93Vectoror while they’re laughing. Great job, Colin!
I think many people did not "get" his jokes. I have to admit, Colin did stretch my brain.
the Gaetz joke was about Matt’s gigantic 5-head.
He was too honest. 😉
Stay current on the news. The real news.
Fucking boom roasted, this was great
He had his moments
Leave it to a Staten Islandender to keep it real and on pointe!
Good job Colin! I was laughing at your jokes even when the room wasn't!
Guess you were the rare ones
I thought Joe had better lines.
Was that Scarlett in the audience saying "ooh, that was good" after the OJ joke?
Whoever it was said it 3 or 4 times.
It was Kelly O'Donnell, president of the WHCA. She's sitting right next to the podium. There's a moment in the vid where you see her commenting, and she's very audible.
@@janinechansonsI love President Biden’s joke that she’s too young to be president. That was choice!
Very well done Colin!
Wasn’t expecting Che’s pranks to follow jost all the way to the correspondents dinner
Colin Jost killed it!!! And I love that President Biden can laugh at himself!!! He has class and is a DECENT man, as Colin Jost says.
Careful you might choke on how much you're sucking Biden
After the punchline "my reflection in a spoon" Colin should have said "you got a big ass head Matt"
I responded on another channel with this.. it's late so I should admit up front that I am plagiarizing myself..
🙄😉
"Perfect!! At a time where folks need a bit of a "reality check" and the spin would make Weebles lose their center of gravity and fall down, the uncomfortable and often absence of laughter from the crowd made me smile!!
Colin had them a bit flumoxed..
Like a mediator in a successful negotiation where both parties walk away a bit unhappy because they got what they deserved.. not what they wanted..
Loved it!!!
Be Well!! 😀 "
I saw you post this comment already somewhere else. Lame.
@@thecartoonshow7450 I saw you post this on their other post. Lame.
His grandfather voting twice spot on!
Some killer punchlines and a decent razzing on the Prez, but the delivery was slower and less energetic than most of other hosts in the history of this show (I mean, compare this to O'Brien's second hosting...). Jost is much better on that fake news show!
Jost was exactly like he is on that fake news show.
Conan is manic. Apples to oranges both are great smart writers!
Waiting for Michael Che to pop out…
I thought fox News said in court,for their defense,that they were entertainment and no reasonable person should take them seriously? Why are they at this event? Is the national enquirer there also?
What’re you smoking? 😂😂
Imagine thinking Fox News is unreliable, and not seeing how CNN, MSNBC, NYT, AP, NPR are all just Fox News for the left.
Good job!
Oh, I thought it would be Seth Meyers because he’s been unavailable all week, but this is a nice surprise. Love you Colin, you did great!!!
Seth was on standby in case Donald made a surprise appearance.
Makes me miss Michelle Wolf
Excellent Work!
Funny, On Point, Humble...
SAVAGE!!!!
"Second Gentleman", indeed!!!!
De!
Cen!
Cy!
Not only did I enjoy this funny and thought provoking address, I felt the need to comment on the NY Times critic, Jason Zinoman who panned it. It is increasingly frustrating that the NY Times is selective about when to allow comments on an article. Often the comment sections have far more insight than articles that may have an agenda. Colin Jost is understated but that forces the audience to make an effort. I loved his comparing himself to Doug Emhoff. They are both second husbands. and “It’s after 10 p.m. Sleepy Joe is still awake, while Trump has spent the last week falling asleep in court every morning-though Fox News just said he was being anti-woke.”
❤❤❤❤❤❤
The Che Joke delivered!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
I love our President. It's so refreshing to have a president who can take a joke!
I loathe this president
Biden is a joke.
@@sjp4u338 you are allowed to. Although it is difficult to understand why.... Unless you buy all the Russian propaganda about him. Sorry if you do, I don't.
FJB
Enjoy because January he is not on the white house anymore 😂
Wordle! 🤣
My husband and I have been thinking about giving up The NY Times for _The Guardian_ . I spend more time with the former's puzzles than with their tired take on news these days. Democrats and Republicans are NOT equivalent.
Check the NYT butt-hurt critique- they said Jost "fell flat"! What poor sports
You can get the wordle without a subscription still I think. They were going to charge but I think it's still free
I will give it to Colin. He was far more even on both sides than I thought he would be. Of course the roast part is supposed to be about the current president, but his was about as good as it was going to get. The best part was how he trashed the media and their obviously uncomfortable reaction to the truth.
At least I can go to sleep knowing that Biden won't rage tweet the jokes about him because he can take it. Can't say the same if it was the other guy
Only because he forgot about them after three seconds, and can't use a phone
@@stevenmorrow9922 except that he's clearly enjoying some of the jokes about himself. Trump would never.
that is a very low bar to set! the u.s. must have better candidates than biden or t***p.
President Biden was one of the few that got the jokes.
I love how the audience shots make half the ppl look butt hurt or simply pissed off. Like is that lady hatin' on that joke or did her s/o just tell her they spent 50k without consulting her. Some of them appear very angry.
Nice job, Collin Jost!
He was funny but Roy Wood Jr. was AMAZING last year.
Collin is so funny, president Biden can take the jokes and laugh about it, if it X45 he would've been mad as hell and looking miserable lol..thanks Collins.
If you haven't already, check out Obama's correspondence dinner; 45 was not happy 😂😂😂
He was awesome
I can't remember the line exactly, but my favorite part went something like, "Our incumbent president is facing off against a man who farts himself awake every morning in his trial in which he's being accused of paying a prostitute hush money, AND THE POLLS ARE TIED!" 🤣
Compared to previous hosts, this feels more like we’re sitting in on a dinner between Joe and Collin’s families.
yep... fucking sickening. And no mention of Assange from a single "journalist". Tools of the corporate state, the lot of them.
