It's fight night at the White House, President Trump, Joe Biden going mono e mono.

Plus, Mark Zuckerberg's week just got worse.

And Republicans struggle to pass their big omnibus spending bill.

We'll go through all of this stuff and an exclusive interview with Speaker of the House

Paul Ryan.

I'm Ben Shapiro.

This is the Ben Shapiro show.

So indeed, yesterday we were in Washington, D.C. We had a great time. We got to go to see all of the sites from the inside. We got to meet with Speaker Ryan. We'll have our exclusive interview with Speaker Ryan a little bit later in the program, which I'm very much looking forward to showing you because it was a lot of fun. We didn't talk a lot, actually, about kind of day-to-day politics. We talked more about broad things that he should be doing in Congress to change the nature of government,

which I think is a little more important because we talk day-to-day politics on the show. We'll get to all of that, plus the greatest story of the last two years, maybe. Maybe it's pretty great. We'll get to that, and just one second.

Okay, so there is a lot of actual news to talk about, but the most important news, the thing that we all care about the most is that there's going to be a fight, fight, fight, fight, fight between Joe Biden, the former vice presidents of the United States. In this corner, and in this corner, Donald J. McPhase Trump is going to be so great. Okay, so here's how it all started. So Biden has been trying to outman Trump. Okay, Biden understands something a lot of other politicians don't. You can't actually just fly over the top of Trump. You can't say, I'll play the high road and he'll play the low road. And we'll be in Scotland before you. You can't actually do that with Trump.

You actually have to get down in the mud with him.

So Biden gets this. And so Biden speaks Trump's language. So there are sort of weird reverse mirror images of one another. It's like bizarro Trump is Joe Biden and bizarreo Biden is Trump. So it's very weird. So it starts off, clip 13, Joe Biden yesterday, saying that he would have beaten up Trump in high school, which is a real weird thing to say.

When a guy who ended up coming on national media said, I can grab a woman anywhere and she likes it.

And that said, I made a mistake. They asked me, but I like to debate.

I said, no. I said, we're in high school. I take him kind of Jeremy Ketala. Right, we're in high school. I beat the hell out of the President of the United States. And then he continues this way. Locker, it was my whole life. A pretty damn good athlete. Any guy who talked that way was using the fattest ugliest SOB in the world. So Trump is a fat, ugly, SOB, and the only people who talk like that are the biggest, fattest, ugliest SOBs in the room. Funny, because you're talking like that right now, Senator Biden, and so, and then, or Vice President Biden, and then Trump fires back. So here's what Trump tweets. This is just, come on, this is great stuff. This is great stuff. God, how can you not love this? Okay, here's the one he treats back this morning. It's so, it's so phenomenal. Crazy Joe Biden is trying to act like a tough guy. Actually, he is weak, both mentally and physically. And yet he threatens me for the second time with physical assault. He doesn't know me, but he would go down fast and hard, crying all the way. Don't threaten people, Joe. It's the best. Okay, so Joe Biden had threatened to beat Trump up actually several months ago, saying that if they got in a fight, he would take down Trump. And now you've got the president of the United States Imagine this. There's a very funny Twitter account that takes all of Trump's tweets and puts them in the format of presidential statements. Imagine the presidential statement, like you wake up from a coma and this is what you see. And you're like, oh, Donald Trump is in a fight with, wait, Donald Trump's the president and he tweeted that. So yeah, that's the thing that happen and I love it. I got to say, I love it. Right. He is weak both mentally and physically,

and yet he threatens me for the second time with physical assault. He doesn't know me. He would go down fast and hard crying all the way.
