Greg Gutfeld’s Fiercest Biden Roast Yet: How Comedy, Politics, and Public Doubt Collided on Late-Night TV

When Greg Gutfeld stepped onto the studio stage, the audience expected sharp humor, quick jabs, and the signature sarcasm he’s built his reputation on. But what they got was something far more intense — a blistering comedic takedown of President Joe Biden that ignited laughter, gasps, and a renewed national debate about leadership, aging, and the power of late-night satire.

Gutfeld has never shied away from political comedy, but this performance felt different. It wasn’t a simple string of jokes or a mild critique. It was a full-scale comedic assault delivered with surgical precision, targeting everything from Biden’s public missteps to his policy confusion, from his unusual public pauses to the strangely curated image crafted by his political allies.

This wasn’t late-night comedy as usual.
This was cultural commentary wrapped in humor — and the audience knew it.

Comedy Meets Crisis: Gutfeld’s Opening Strike

Gutfeld began by citing headlines that once tried to portray Biden as calm, steady, and competent. He mocked the sudden shift in tone from media outlets that had spent years praising him, only to finally acknowledge his age, confusion, and slip-ups.

One headline described Biden as “an ailing, menacing, egotistical president shielded from reality by loyalists.” Gutfeld fired back with vicious comedic precision, joking that the journalists who wrote it had been “so far up Biden’s wrinkly backside” that he was amazed they hadn’t diagnosed cancer from the inside out.

It was a fiery opener — the kind that warned viewers this wasn’t going to be a tame segment.

Then the roasting began in earnest.

The Presidential Glitches: Roasting Biden’s Public Moments

Gutfeld turned Biden’s most viral moments into comedic ammunition: the wandering off stage, the infamous invisible-handshake incidents, the confused pauses, the abrupt whispers, and the sudden shouting.

To Gutfeld, these weren’t small slip-ups.

They were symptoms of a presidency struggling to maintain coherence.

He described Biden as “the human embodiment of a confused teleprompter glitch,” a leader who looked like he needed “a personal GPS to navigate a basic press conference.”

The audience erupted, because whether they loved Biden or not, they knew exactly which moments Gutfeld meant.

He even joked that Biden’s mind often “buffers like a frozen YouTube video,” leaving Americans uncertain whether he’s:

– wrapping up a thought
– falling asleep
– or restarting entirely

The exaggerated imagery landed perfectly.

The Ice Cream Saga and Reuters’ Unusual Fact-Check

One of Gutfeld’s hardest-hitting jokes came when he referenced Reuters fact-checking a parody video of Biden chasing an ice-cream truck:

“Apparently it needed clarification that Biden doesn’t sprint after dessert trucks,” Gutfeld joked. “As if the man could move that fast.”

The mockery was layered:

– at Biden
– at the media
– at the absurdity of fact-checking obvious satire

His punchline?
“That’s one reason Jill calls him Mr. Softy.”

It was comedy mixed with cultural critique — the perfect cocktail for a Gutfeld monologue.

The Economy, Inflation, and a Struggling Narrative

Gutfeld shifted gears into Biden’s policies, focusing on inflation, prices, and the administration’s repeated insistence that Americans should feel grateful for “economic improvements.”

He compared Biden discussing the economy to “watching someone try to build IKEA furniture without instructions, without glasses, and without knowing what the final product is supposed to look like.”

Each incomplete sentence, every confused economic claim, and every off-topic story from Biden became comedic gold.

When Biden claimed inflation was easing while grocery prices soared, Gutfeld quipped:

“It’s like a magician insisting the rabbit is still in the hat while it’s hopping behind him.”

It was humor, but it was also sharp social commentary — something Gutfeld has mastered.

The Classified Documents Scandal: A Garage Full of Punchlines

Gutfeld dove into Biden’s classified document controversy, especially the discovery of papers in Biden’s garage.

His jab was direct:

“The garage was locked, so it’s fine. Because as we all know, burglars and foreign agents are terrified of garage doors.”

The timing, the sarcasm, the delivery — flawless.

The audience roared.

Gutfeld then mocked the White House for endlessly repeating the phrase “ongoing process” during press briefings.

He mimicked the repetition:

“Process, process, process… ongoing process… respect the process…”

Then delivered the punchline:

“It’s the only process in the administration that actually works — because it never ends.”

A President in Pause Mode: The Dramatic Biden Buffering

The next section of Gutfeld’s routine became one of the most shared segments online.

He mocked Biden’s signature pauses — those moments where he freezes mid-sentence as if rebooting.

“Watching him stop mid-thought feels like staring at a real-life loading screen,” Gutfeld said. “You don’t know whether he’ll continue the sentence, fall asleep, or suddenly shout a random word like a possessed GPS.”

This was Gutfeld at his comedic height — absurd, sharp, and dangerously close to reality.

Foreign Policy Under Fire: Comedy Meets Concern

When Gutfeld addressed Biden’s foreign policy, his humor took a darker edge.

He compared Biden’s global diplomacy to “trying to calm a wild animal by reading it a bedtime story.”

World leaders, he suggested, don’t fear Biden — they study him like an unstable science project, waiting for someone else to intervene whenever he drifts off into a slow nod.

The crowd reacted with a mixture of laughter and unease — because beneath the joke was a real worry shared by many Americans.

Immigration and the Border Crisis: A Vanishing Act

Gutfeld roasted Biden’s handling of the border, calling it “the greatest disappearing trick of modern politics.”

Not because the issue vanished — but because Biden kept pretending it wasn’t happening.

“It’s like watching someone ignore a house fire while using a spray bottle to mist a few plants,” Gutfeld joked.

He pointed out the disconnect between Biden’s calm statements and the visible chaos, using humor to highlight a serious national divide.

Everyday Costs, Everyday Comedy: Laughing Through Pain

Gutfeld turned the cost-of-living crisis into relatable humor:

– eggs that cost as much as electronics
– gas tanks requiring “a financial adviser”
– grocery trips that feel like game shows

He joked that Biden could step into a press conference, blink in the right direction, and be praised as “alert and focused.”

Americans laughed because the exaggeration hid an uncomfortable truth: rising prices hit hard, and political explanations do little to ease the burden.

Biden’s Image Makeover: Sunglasses, Jogging, and Confusion

Gutfeld then tackled Biden’s attempts to appear energetic and cool — especially the iconic aviator sunglasses.

He joked that:

“If a pair of aviators and a slow jog down a hallway were enough to fix the country, Biden would be on Mount Rushmore by now.”

Instead, he painted Biden as someone who looks like:

“A retired man who wandered out of his living facility while searching for an outdoor concert from 1978.”

The image was absurd, vivid, and hilariously on point.

Student Loans, Spending, and Political Theater

Gutfeld savaged Biden’s student loan promises, calling them “financial theater designed to dazzle, distract, and ultimately disappoint.”

It was one of the most serious sections of the set, with comedy used to soften the edges of public frustration.

He said Biden’s plan felt like “playing Monopoly after mortgaging every property and forgetting how the game works.”

The message was clear: big promises, little delivery, confusing explanations.

Unity Through Insults: The Contradictions of Biden’s Messaging

Gutfeld ended the political section with Biden’s repeated calls for “unity.”

But as Gutfeld described it:

“You can’t invite the country to a family dinner while mocking half the table before they sit down.”

It was sharp, concise, and drew loud applause.

The contradiction in messaging — preaching unity while criticizing conservatives — became one of his strongest comedic threads.

The Weekend at Biden’s Presidency: A Cultural Punchline

One of Gutfeld’s final metaphors became an instant viral moment.

He compared the Biden presidency to a taxpayer-funded reboot of Weekend at Bernie’s, but with podiums, staff panic, and constant attempts to get Biden to follow the script.

Every wrong turn, every frozen moment, every confused stare became part of this irreverent cinematic parody.

The imagery was so outrageous — and yet so recognizable — that the audience couldn’t stop laughing.
