Take a look at overruling Roe v. Wade. Take a look at what the decision is today. Take a look at how it's ruled on a number of issues that have been precedent for 50, 60 years sometimes.

0:14.0

Across the board, the vast majority of the American people don't agree with that a lot of the decisions this court should make.

0:21.0

That's President Joe Biden yesterday on MSNBC reacting the Supreme Court over turning the use of affirmative action in college admissions and you know, willia, it was a fascinating interview.

0:31.0

I'm going to say that a little concerned, the New York Post, which of course, as you know, is morning Joe's newspaper record.

0:37.0

Also, when people always come up to me on the street and go, Joe, why is the New York Post?

0:41.0

You know, it's very simple. They've won more Pulitzer prizes collectively than all other newspapers.

0:48.0

You can look it up if you don't believe me. You can look that up and they want, so that's why. But anyway, they have on the, I don't look it up. They have on the cover online.

Like Joe Biden walking off set, right? And it's like he got lost and kind of like barnacle when we'll ask him a question he walks off in the middle of a question because he wants to get there.

1:12.0
