Comedian Dana Carvey dropped his uncanny impersonation of pudding-brained Joe Biden while appearing this week on HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher, and shared a pretty good rendition of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Maher complimented his guest, explaining that nobody could quite get Biden like he could, which resulted in an impromptu performance from Carvey.
Standing up, the comedian wandered around the stage while muttering to himself. While returning to his seat, Carvey recounted how Biden would stroke his face when his handlers worked him a little too hard, before duplicating that familiar 1,000-yard stare often seen from the former president while touching his cheek.

The audience ate it up — never mind that most of them likely voted for the man showing early signs of dementia while running for office.
In a focus on RFK Jr., Carvey offered an interesting take on the Trump cabinet official’s raspy voice — he suffers from a neurological condition called spasmodic dysphonia, which causes involuntary spasms of the muscles that open or close the vocal cords.
“He always just sounds like he took a hit of pot,” Carvey said of Kennedy.

For good measure, Carvey threw in a fairly accurate impersonation of President Trump and first buddy Elon Musk:
