JOE BIDEN: This is the first time a president has attended this dinner in six years.

I'm not really here to roast the GOP. That's not my style. Besides, there's nothing I can say about the GOP that Kevin McCarthy hasn't already put on tape.

But Republicans seem to support one fellow. Some guy named Brandon. He's having a really good year. And I'm kind of happy for him.

I'm going to turn this over to Trevor now. And strap myself into my seat.

Trevor, the really good news is, now you get to roast the President of the United States. And unlike in Moscow, you won't go to jail.
