The opposite of many of today's politicians, Reagan had an excellent sense of humor<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BTIfGFJqLko</ref>. When he had almost been assassinated, he removed his oxygen mask and cracked a joke "I hope you're all Republicans"<ref>https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/i-hope-you-are-all-republicans-john-j-miller/</ref>. Reagan also poked fun at his age multiple times, such as when he answered a question in a debate against Walter Mondale about his age his response included the words "I am not going to exploit for political purposes my opponent's youth and inexperience"<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJhCjMfRndk</ref>. The one-liner was so humorous and clever that even Mondale genuinely laughed at it.
