This is like the most flattering version of Joe Biden to ever exist

[collinsoconnor]

"Love the accent, where you from?" said Joe to Boris.

[theblackwell]

Vastly more coherent than the real thing

[DjDeadpig]

They made Biden more likeable here than he is in real life.

[JETZcorp]

I think the Biden puppet might be the best designed one I've ever seen. Just the thumbnail of this video had me rolling.

[mathieuleader]

Joe Biden first appeared in the classic series in a 1988 presidential sketch being parodied as Senator Joe Bidet

[aldunlop]

"Old Joe Biden never quits in the middle of a job" aged liked milk...

[gianca]

This is an adrenaline pumped version of Joe Biden.

[syncrosimon]

Much more interesting than the real news🤣🤣

[alexsmyth]

“What the hell is a “We gotta go, Joe.”?”

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[rud]

Now imagine he could talk that fast in real life. Must slow it 50%

[mariafmatamoros]

Nunca vi a Biden tan vivo y despierto 😂😂😂

[americanwoman]

I catch myself looking how detailed these puppets are. Incredibly cool. If only Potato Joe was this sentient. 😂

[ephraimlessell]

Politics aside, someone did a really good job of imitating Biden's voice

[hiroshi]

I'm hearing a lot of sizzle but no steak.

I'm gonna use that in class 😂😂

[levi]

Sad thing is, this parody Biden is much, much smarter, energetic and coherent than the real one.

I thought the point of this show was to exaggerate characteristics. Instead, you've made him more sensible. LOL

[dimension]

They’ve really pulled their punches with Biden-the puppets 20x more together and lucid than the actual Biden-who is a complete cabbage.

[Del-Canada]

I used to set the VCR timer to record episodes of the original series the nights they aired and watch them when I got home from work.

[abigail]

He's much more coherent here than he is IRL.

[jamesbondiv]

puppet is far too cognisant and competent to be Baden
