MSNBC Gushes About Biden’s WHCD Performance: ‘Proves That He’s Sharp, And Gets it’

President Joe Biden drew raves for his performance at Saturday night’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner from the crew at MSNBC.

Shortly after the event wrapped, host Ayman Mohyeldin and a roundtable panel threw bouquets at the president.

“Just like last year, just like he does at the state of the Union, he steps up for these big events,” said Rick Wilson — co-founder of the Lincoln Project. “He proves that he is sharp and gets it. And this isn’t some guy who’s doctoring along. He understands how big this fight is. He understands how important the calling of this moment is. Yeah, and I think he really did very well tonight.”

“The call to action was impressive,” Mohyeldin added. He went on to cite a quip from the 81-year-old Biden in which he said, “age is an issue. I’m a grown man running against a six-year-old.”

“I think he kind of took the age issue, spun it and played it to his advantage like a smart politician would,” Mohyeldin said. “He’s not shying away from it. He acknowledges it. But also acknowledges that with that comes this tremendous vision, this ability to be able to kind of, distance themselves from the other, senile guy that he’s running against.”

“I think that he showed that he was the adult in the room,” said Ameshia Cross — a SiriusXM political analyst. “That age is not something that is hurting him. That it is actually one of his assets because of the experience that he has.”
