President of the United States Joe Biden joked at the annual White House Correspondents’ Dinner about himself as well as his potential presidential challenger Donald Trump too in age.

– The 2024 presidential elections are in full swing and yes, age is a problem. I am a grown man and my opponent is 6 years old, Biden said.

According to the US media CNN, a total of 3,000 guests, including journalists, public figures and politicians, attended the correspondents’ dinner.

Arriving on stage to applause, the president thanked everyone for the warm welcome at the beginning of his speech, but asked the audience not to be too loud.

– Donald is listening. Tired Don. I kind of like that. I might use it again, Biden

Biden also poked fun at Trump about his ongoing trial by joking about the former adult entertainment actor who was at the center of the prank Stormy Daniels mark. Stormy means stormy in Finnish.

– Donald has had a couple of tough days lately. You could even call it “stormy” weather.

During the evening, comedian Colin Jost, who was the second main performer of the event, made a joke about Trump’s trial.

– Can we just acknowledge how refreshing it is to see the President of the United States at an event that doesn’t start with the bailiff’s words “All rise”, Colin joked, referring to the practice of US courts to always start sessions with those words.

Biden emphasized the role of a free press

In the event aimed at correspondents, the press and its role in the upcoming presidential elections was supposedly Biden’s main topic.

– The most important question of our time is whether democracy is still America’s sacred thing, Biden says he said in his speech earlier.

– This is a question that citizens must answer this year. You, the free press, play a critical role in ensuring that the American people have all the information they need to make an informed decision.

Of course, Biden also joked at the expense of the press.

– Some of you complain that I don’t answer your questions enough. I won’t comment, Biden joked.

The president also showed one of his tweets directly to the US newspaper The New York Times. Last Thursday, the newspaper published a statement in which it claimed that Biden “actively and effectively avoided questions from independent reporters.”

– Hey, if that’s the way I get the New York Times to call me active and effective, that’s fine with me, Biden said.
