President Joe Biden has been cooking with gas in his last remaining months as a lame-duck commander-in-chief.
Sleepy Joe appeared dialed in and happier than ever during his speech at the White House addressing Kamala Harris’s thumping loss to Donald Trump earlier in November. A reporter asked the president Tuesday if he could negotiate a hostage deal between Israel and Hamas before the end of his term.
Much to the journalist’s surprise, Biden hit her with a zinger, replying, “Do you think that you can get hit in the head by the camera behind you?” The exchange is hysterical. (RELATED: Biden Looks The Happiest He’s Ever Been After Kamala’s Crushing Defeat)

Although we doubt there’s anything left of Biden’s brain — it’s likely his mind has been melted to soup like an ice cream cone in 95-degree heat — the 81-year-old occasionally shows glimmers of his old self, when he could still crack a joke on the fly.
In a legendary exchange from February, Biden left Fox News reporter Peter Doocy in the dust with a quip about his memory.
“How bad is your memory, and can you continue as president?” Doocy asked Biden at the time.
“My memory is so bad that I let you speak,” Biden responded.
After his own party kicked him out of the race, the president told influencers in August that he was “looking for a job.”
Biden’s presidency was a fuster cluck in so many ways. From the southern border to inflation, his blank check funding for Ukraine and Israel to his domestic censorship regime, the lawfare against a political opponent — it was a slow-moving disaster that had disastrous effects on American prosperity and civil liberties. He picked a bumbling airhead as his Vice President. (Stream Daily Caller’s latest documentary ‘Cleaning Up Kamala’ HERE)
But sometimes, it’s hard to hate the guy, especially when his sense of humor shines through.
