Summary
Jimmy Fallon turned Joe Biden’s newly announced memoir into a late-night target, joking on Wednesday that “Promise Me, America” is only three pages long.
Nov. 17 is the book’s scheduled publication date, after Biden said the memoir would cover his time in office.
Fallon’s sharpest lines mocked Biden’s memory and authorship, including quips that the ghostwriter was “Joe Biden” and that Kamala Harris takes over near the end.
The jokes landed as Biden releases his second book, with the announcement itself driving the night’s comedy response.
