I don't think it's a sincere effort to make Biden appear in touch. It's just a satisfying imaginary timeline.

To me at least, it's funny for the same reason Futurama Nixon in a giant robot body smashing holes in the white house and shooting missiles at his enemies is wonderful; it doesn't mean I like Nixon, but it does make me want to live in that timeline instead of this one, where all the conflict is underhanded and behind the scenes.

It just hits different when it's an active politician.
