The Unedited Biden Interview Everyone Needs To See
ProPublica just released an interview with President Biden conducted by former CNN White House correspondent John Harwood on Sept. 29th, nine days before the Hur interviews began. The outlet reports that Biden did not send questions to the White House beforehand. Additionally, the President did not seek approval for topics discussed during the interview. The interview is Joe Biden unedited, and he answered many questions about his age, threats to democracy, Congressional gridlock, Ethics rules for Supreme Court Justices, and a litany of other important topics.
Jan. 6th and political violence.
Biden said how to prevent another Jan. 6th from happening is by "not legitimizing it, and not talking about it like it's appropriate." The President said, "There is never a rationale for political violence in America. That's not who we are."
On Trump and MAGA Republicans.
"I think that this is sort of the last gasp or maybe the first big gasp of the MAGA Republicans," Biden said. "And I think Trump has concluded that he has to win, and he'll pull out all the stops. I mean, the quotes he uses are just -- I never thought I'd hear a president say some of the stuff he says."
"They (MAGA Republicans) don't make up a majority of the House, but they're bringing everything to a screeching halt," he said.
On polls and the media.
