Watch President Obama Promise a Crying Baby He Won’t Tell Anymore Bad Dad Jokes

1 minute read

Besides being the leader of the free world, President Obama also has another important job: being Sasha and Malia’s dad. As both POTUS and the dad-in-chief, it’s safe to say that he’s said more than his fair share of corny jokes (dad jokes, if you will), but it turns out that not all of his audience members are amused.

While POTUS congratulated the Pittsburgh Penguins on their Stanley Cup win during a ceremony at the White House on Thursday, a crying baby was less than impressed with his jokes about Phil Kessel and the Blackhawks.

As the baby continued to wail, Obama reassured his youngest audience member that there would be no more cheesy humor from him.

“Don’t worry. I don’t have any more bad jokes,” he said. “These are so corny, I know.”

Watch the entire escapade go down below.
