Biden said he was pinning his hopes on young people, the 'best educated, least prejudiced, most giving generation in American history.'
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."
