Imagine being 70 years old and not being able to give compliments to anyone else.

Chevy is at his funniest when he is not around

[RobFordGlazer]

I think Chevy is hilarious and is deep down a good guy, but he’s so narcissistic and rude to others. I hope he can change things soon. Love you Chevy!

al franken was a politician. one of the best actually.

[NeonKC]

Chase was probably the first to start using his influence on weekend update to sway people to his political points of view. Good or bad? Idk but funny? Not really

Great impression of Joe Biden sleeping 😂👍🏿

[dougmarshall]

What a jerk. Never found him to be funny at all.

[d.l.]

He was always overrated. Chevy Chase was a poor performer.

Chevy does a great impersonation of Biden snoring ❤

Vice President Vance shared the truth. Citizens of the UK 🇬🇧, and Canada 🇨🇦 are applauding the speech. They live in countries were their very thoughts, much less their speech, can put them in prison. Far from democracy
