Biden’s appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live was a disaster, to say the least.
During the show, Biden wasted no time calling out Republicans for their opposition to gun control.
Instead of talking about the mass shortages and ongoing inflation Biden claimed the country is moving forward and his proof was because commercials now have biracial couples.
I’m not kidding he literally said this, take a look:
-Record high Gas Prices
-Inflation Skyrocketing to 8.6%
-Thousands flooding the border
-Baby formula shortage
-U.S. household wealth declineJoe Biden: Turn on the TV, there are biracial couples in commercials, Jack https://t.co/EX4P1I7MLz

Biden would follow up his awkward remarks by saying in order to make progress Republicans need to be sent to jail.

Here’s what the Washington Examiner reported:
Following President Joe Biden’s appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live Wednesday in Los Angeles, California, social media reaction slammed the interview.
The president spent much of the interview discussing gun control, abortion, and the economy while blasting former President Donald Trump and Republicans.
“I often get asked, ‘Look, the Republicans don’t play it square, why do you play it square?’ Well, guess what! If we do the same thing they do, our democracy will literally be in jeopardy,” Biden said. “Not a joke.”
Kimmel equated Washington, D.C. politics and Republicans to that of playing the game “Monopoly” with people who do not follow the rules.
“How do you ever make any progress if they’re not following the rules?” Kimmel asked.
“Well, you have to send them to jail,” Biden joked, referencing the board game.
Biden wants to “send (Republicans) to jail” because we “won’t follow any of the rules”.
We do follow the rules, Joe.
It's called THE US CONSTITUTION and you should try following reading it sometime.

Fox News had these details to report on Biden’s late-night tv appearance:
Joe Biden appeared on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” for his first network interview in 118 days on Wednesday night.
The president kicked off his first in-person appearance on a late-night talk show by discussing gun control efforts with comedian and host Jimmy Kimmel. Biden wasted no time in taking aim at Republicans saying, “A lot of it is intimidation by the NRA. Look, this is not your father’s Republican Party. This is a MAGA party.”
Kimmel then questioned Biden about the possibility of issuing an executive order on gun control, saying former President Donald Trump “passed those out like Halloween candy.”
The president responded, “I have issued executive orders within the power of the presidency to be able to deal with everything having to do with guns, gun ownership… all of the things that are within my power.”
He went on to accuse Trump of abusing the Constitution, saying he doesn’t want to “emulate” his predecessor.
“But what I don’t want to do, and I’m not being facetious, I don’t want to emulate Trump’s abuse of the constitution and constitutional authority,” Biden said.
