When it happened Joe was mocked relentlessly by people on certain news networks and on line.
Seth's joke using the clip was not very funny, all jokes can't be funny. But it was just a dumb joke. It didn't mean anything beyond that. It wasn't an indictment of old guys riding or anything like that.
Seth and Joe Biden were on friendly terms and had spent part of a day together and even went out to get ice cream.
