This is going to be a great week.

And I want to kick us off by celebrating our incredible President Joe Biden.

Joe, thank you for your historic leadership for your lifetime of service to our nation

and for all you will continue to do we are forever grateful to you.

Vice President Kamala Harris making a surprise appearance on the first night of the Democratic National Convention speaking

for about two minutes after walking out to thunderous applause from the audience.

Throughout the evening we saw speakers deliver impassioned remarks to a fired up crowd.

The lineup included a who's who within the Democratic Party like Hillary Clinton, Congressman

Jim Clyburn,

Congressman Jamie Raskin, and Governor Andy Bashir of Kentucky.

There were also non-public officials

like UAW President Sean Fain,

NBA, Coach, Steve Kerr, and several abortion rights activists.

Good morning and welcome to Morning Joe.

Well, it was quite. It went late though. It went too late.

Willie a little late. I think the president just stopped speaking a few minutes.

A little late. Not his fault. Just ran a little late with the program.

It was fabulous.

They got it.

I mean, they started the president's speech, literally the same time they start Saturday night

life. I'm serious.

That's true.
