WASHINGTONU.S. President Barack Obama squeezed in a Justin Trudeau joke at his final White House Correspondents Dinner roast.
Obama made a few cracks about how hed aged during his eight-year presidency, referring to his new grey hair and how hed have no trouble being awake for a 3 a.m. phone call because of his frequent toilet breaks.
Then came an aside about Canadas new prime minister, whom he hosted at a state dinner last month.
Somebody recently said to me, Mr. President, you are so yesterday. Justin Trudeau has completely replaced you. Hes so handsome, hes so charming. Hes the future, Obama said.
Obama then delivered the presidential punchline, waving dismissively: I said, Justin, just give it a rest.'
