Like a lot of people, Jimmy Fallon was pleasantly surprised by Joe Biden’s State of the Union speech, joking during his monologue on Friday night, “I guess President Biden drank a Red Bull last night.” “He was pumped, he was pumped!” Fallon continued, before adding a more edgy explanation for why Biden delivered an energetic performance that directly refuted the expectation he’d seem like a senile old dodderer. “Actually, it wasn’t Red Bull he was drinking, apparently he was on a new supplement called Meth-amucil.
