Legendary Comedian Mel Brooks Makes First-Ever Political Video And Endorses Joe Biden

94-year-old Mel Brooks, the legendary writer and director behind comedy classics such as “The Producers,” “Blazing Saddles,” and “Young Frankenstein,” for the first time made a political video endorsing former Vice President Joe Biden

In a video posted by his son, bestselling author Max Brooks, Mel explained to viewers why he was making his first-ever video political endorsement.

“They can’t be with me,” he explained. “Why? Because of this coronavirus! And Donald Trump’s not doing a damn thing about it.”

Mel then said that he trusts Biden to handle the pandemic better than Trump has and would help get the country back to normal sooner than the current president.
