Appearing on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' on Wednesday, President Joe Biden said he won't issue executive orders willy nilly: “If we do the same thing they do, our democracy will literally be in jeopardy.'
LOS ANGELES — There weren’t a lot of laughs, but President Joe Biden got some unsolicited advice from Jimmy Kimmel on Wednesday when the president sat down for his first in-person interview with a late-night host since taking office.
“This generation is going to change everything,” Biden said. “We just have to make sure we don’t give up.” Kimmel began his interview by asking about gun control, referencing a string of recent mass shootings.Biden responded that “this is not your father’s Republican Party,” and he blamed his political opposition for being too afraid to do anything about guns because they fear primary election challenges.
“Well, guess what,” he said. “If we do the same thing they do, our democracy will literally be in jeopardy. Not a joke.”
