Mark Hamill says the force is with President Biden — the actor made a surprise visit Friday to the White House briefing room and offered a “Star Wars”-inspired nickname for the commander in chief.

“How many of you had ‘Mark Hamill will lead the press briefing’ on your bingo cards?” Hamill, sporting a pair of sunglasses, told reporters at the top of the White House’s press briefing.

“I just got to meet the president, and he gave me these aviator glasses,” added Hamill, known for his role as Luke Skywalker.

Asked about his Oval Office visit with Biden, Hamill said, “I called him ‘Mr. President.’ He said, ‘You can call me Joe.'”

Then Hamill quipped, “I said, ‘Can I call you Joe-B-Wan Kenobi?” offering a Biden-inspired play on the name of the famed Jedi master character in the intergalactic franchise.

Someone pass me a barf bag please

What a dumb ass.

[Tell It Right]

You strike Trump down now and he will become more powerful than you can possibly imagine. (typed in my best Sir Alec Guinness voice)

[DoughtyOne]

Barf Vader…

Senator Palpatene…

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Mark Hamill — the ultimate one hit wonder.

That old boy has parlayed a second tier role in a children's movie, milking it for a lifetime, a lifetime devoid of accomplishments.

[fwdude]

LOL!! The only “force” Biden uses is to pass gas.

[9YearLurker]

Might as well have said it from Lake Joe-B-Gone.

[Baladas]

This guy always seemed a little slow - well, so does Biden but he didn’t act quite as stupid when he was younger. Mark has always been a dolt.

[Flag_This]

The Farce is strong in that one.

[blackdog]

Corn-Pop must be shaking in fear now.

[Ciaphas Cain]

Oh I dunno. He did pretty good voicing the Joker on Batman: The Animated Series. Beyond those accomplishments though Hamill has been noteworthy for nothing else apart from his hatred and obsession of Donald Trump.

[Salman]

Not just a nerd, but an ass-kissing nerd.

[NWFree]

Bahahaha Hollyweird is just as stupid as President Retard

[IYAS9YAS]

Ha. Joe Joe Binks is more like it. Or C-Creepio.

[Publius]

He played a drill instructor for the Knights Templar in the second season of “Knightfall.”

[politicket]

Mark Hamill is an idiot.

We all know the current Resident at the White House is:

Joe Joe Binks, the bumbling clown

[adorno]

Hamill played a fake character in the movies. Obi-Wan Kenobi was also a fake character, even if a robot.

Joe Biden is a fake president, and walks like a robot, but without the intelligence of Obi-Wan-Kenobi.

Fakes of a feather stick together.

[Fledermaus]

Meesa stupid

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Drugged any of your son’s pregnant girlfriends with RU486 lately, Mr. Sleezewalker?

[laconic]

A washed up actor with a big mouth and stupid mind. How odd.
