OMG: Jill Biden Just LEAKED THIS ABOUT MELANIA, Private CONVO!

0:00 We've been talking about Jill Biden doing her press tour for her new memoir and how I was going, "Oh, no. Don't keep bringing up the debate. That's a really unadvantageous non-advantage disadvantageous uh is the word approach." Whenever everyone forgot about that finally, and now we're bringing it back up. But luckily, there was more in the book than just she thought Biden was having a stroke during the debate. That's good. So, let's talk about something else from this memoir, which is her detailing her encounter with Melania Trump. There's a tradition during inaugurations where the presidents get in a car and drive to the White House, I think it is, or somewhere, and then the first ladies also drive together in a car. And that's awkward whenever you are as aggressively

0:46 attacking each other as the Trumps and Bidens were. And especially Trump just says some of the most vicious lies ever about Biden. And so then you had to be like, "Hey, what's up? Happy that you're president." or something. And apparently it was a very awkward ride, which you can imagine. We watched that Melania documentary and she gets in the car with Trump and can thought of Trump and can barely say anything. How is um so um is Baron good? Okay, good. Good. Like they didn't have anything to talk about, much less what is Melania talk about with Jill Biden? Apparently she could only think about the weather. So you have uh this she wore a purple she you know about unity. Despite the apparent effort the meeting between the two couples appears to have been particularly awkward. When the Trumps

1:33 arrived on the steps of the White House in their motorcade the Bidens exchanged pleasantries with their replacements and posed for one of those pictures. The limousine ride though was awkward. I don't know how long this has been a tradition Joe Biden writes but it certainly helps with the awkwardness. Excuse me. The president's car was likely frosty, too. But at least they've spent considerable time in each other's company. This would be one of the few interactions Melania and I ever had. Jill Biden thinks it was particularly frosty because she knows that Melania blamed Joe personally for the FBI raid where her underwear were searched. They always say, "I knew how distressing it was to have agents rummage through your underwear drawer.

2:19 It's not that distressing. Your husband had all those documents, so maybe he hid them in your underwear drawer. They're always like, they never bring up that he had the documents and the agents found them. It's not like they did that went whoopsie, they found the documents at issue that Trump was obstructing justice and preventing from them the getting. Yeah, but they went through my underwear drawer. What's in your underwear drawer? That's so disturbing, Mel. But it's so violating. Not really. Unless that's where you keep your pre-written divorce notice.

Back to the video. Jill writes, "Portra, my underwear draw was open. I know. I'm sorry. I have PTSD." So sick of it. He was breaking the law and he could have slipped a classified document in any draw. They don't know which one's your underwear drawer. I know how to say it. I'm just being silly because Trump pronounces that way.

3:59 It is one thing to search my socks, but you opened my underwear wall and I now have PTSD from that. Poor Jon had to figure out how to break the tension and find some path to relative peace in the course of the drive, the person driving Clolobashar's husband. In one attempt at thawing the ice, Bessler asked Melania where her son Baron Trump was going to school. Melania responded "Nu. That's it." You know those people at parties you walk up, you're like, "Oh, this person's not socializing." Hey, um, what do you do for work? Engineering. Oh, uh, where's that here? Cool. You like your co-workers?

4:47 Sure. All right. Well, um, thank you for coming to my party. I'm thinking of one specific person that I just interacted with, by the way. Uh, if you're watching this, yes, you. Yes, you. Say more words when I ask you questions. Otherwise, don't come to my house. Don't be a boore. Melania said, looking out the window, clearly about to point to the clouds as a way of segueing to a neutral topic. Melania kept trying to switch the topic to the weather. Joe Biden continued, saying that she tried to get with Melania's weather only program by expressing sympathy for the military dogs braving the elements as part of the day's pompant ceremony. After arriving at the capital and observing the ceremony, Biden recalls that the new president told her, "If Joe ever needs

5:34 anything, call me." So, apparently Trump said to Jill, "If Joe ever needs anything, call me." What a fake two-faced fraud. I hate this part. It's these videos that kill me. The pretending kills me. Hey, welcome to the White House. Oh, yeah. Let me give you a Yeah, it is cold outside today.

6:22 Apparently, that's what Melania just kept saying was like pointing at things, which I could have predicted. If I rode in a car with her, I do feel like it'd be like there is a store there. Doesn't feel like she wants to get into fun conversations. Pretty stoic. The clouds are What's one name of a cloud? I'm blanking. You know, like whenever they're a certain formation, they're in the thundercloud. >> Alrighty. Bing bing bing bing bing. But that story is interesting, right? You you hear about them being awkward. Biden said the after life after the White House was very difficult. You can

7:08 imagine. one thing that I wish she would not say. All that was interesting and I get it and I can't imagine having to interact with the Trumps at all and pretend like you're being friendly for the tradition. Um, one thing I would really wish she wouldn't say is that if Biden had stayed on the ticket, he would have won the election. I just think that it happened. We lost. Y'all are a team with Kamla. You lost collectively. Just come on now. if he was gonna win, why'd he drop him off the ticket? >> There there's another sort of conventional wisdom has formed now in many Democratic circles that President Biden beats Donald Trump in 2020. A moment for history >> according to Democrats for sure to stop

7:53 the Trump administration. They overperformed in the midterms in 2022. And perhaps that would have been a good moment for President Biden to say, "I've done the job. I'm going to be a one-term president at this stage in my life." Were there ever any conversations to that effect? >> Well, of course. I mean, Joe had to decide whether to run again, but like you said, you know, we did well, the Democrats did well in the midterms and in 2023, the Democratic party was be totally behind Joe and people everywhere I went, Joe's got to do it again. He's got to run. He's got to run. And he was like, well, I don't know, you know, am I too old? I mean, it was the age question no matter where we went. And um so of course you know we we heard that what

8:39 people were saying but then um then people were doing polling you know who could beat Trump and the only person that who pulled that said that could beat Trump was Joe Biden and um and so that's why Joe decided to continue on >> or does the president now regret dropping out of the race? you know, I um I would never want anyone I loved to go through that again. It was um so painful, not just for us, not just for me and for Joe, but we have children and grandchildren. And um to see them have to go through that uh was really a hard thing, a hard time for our family, and I

9:25 would never want to put our family through that again. But does he believe to this day that he would have defeated Donald Trump in that election? >> I believe he would have beat Donald Trump in that election. >> Okay, three points. Three points. Uh let's start from the end and work backwards. What you just said there. Why are you saying that? No. No. No. No. No. No. No. Stop. Stop. Stop. Stop. Stop. Stop. Stop. Stop. Stop. That's so unadvisable. If that's true, do you know what? If anyone questions the work we put in to try to defeat Trump, you're crazy. I would have let both of my feet and I love my feet get cut off to get Biden elected over Trump or Kell elected over Trump or whoever.

10:12 I was working. I was explaining the things people were missing about the Biden administration success. And please do not say that because then why did you drop off the ticket? He was forced. No, he wasn't. He had the nomination in the back. He would have been the nominee. He chose to step off the ticket um amidst pressure, sure, but he still chose to voluntarily because he saw that he was going to lose. Don't do this because it's it's uh unfalsifiable. We're never going to know what that election would have been if Biden stayed on. than you going around and saying that he he would have won. It's like you're just re it's it's grabbing a we just scab and you're ripping it off and now we're all thinking about that again and

10:58 that's the first point. Second point back is I get that it was hard for your family. I I'm I'm sure I do sympathize with that a lot. And it feels really selfish when asked if you regret him dropping off him staying on the ticket as long as he did to say essentially, I wouldn't go back and do it the way we did it because it was hard for us. Chill. What about us? What about us, meaning America? The people dying because they don't have healthcare because it was ripped away

11:43 from them. People in the rest of the world dying because USAD was ripped apart. People being shot in the streets because of insane ICE actions, ripped away from their families. Please don't make the first point as to why you would have done it differently. That it was hard for your family when there are much bigger considerations than one family's heartache. And I do resonate with how hard that probably felt and the betrayals and all that, but man, it comes off selfish. We have people because of this election outcome dead right now. We have a children school in Iran blown up because of the election result.

12:30 We have American soldiers dead because of the election result. Don't start with it was hard for your family. Start with yes, we would have done it differently because clearly the way we did it didn't work for the election result. You're her first response wasn't oh of course I regret what we did. I don't know what the correct solution would have been, but we if we could go back, we would have found out a way to do it in a way that didn't lead to Trump getting elected, which is what happened. But it starts with it was hard for us. Come on. It was, I'm sure, heartbreaking, devastating, but the country, please, is suffering a lot more than any one family. It's like if I mourned over the election result because

13:17 of how hard it was for us here at the show. First and foremost, it was hard for us. There's videos on the internet where I'm clearly trying to process it and like I get made fun of by Trump supporters who revel in my pain. But that's not my first consideration. And I know it's that times a million whenever it was actually you at the center of it. But still just kind of an piece of advice for for someone said, "Can we see your feet?" Um piece of advice for her. And then there was one more thing before that, but now I'm blanking. Let's see. >> Any conversations to that effect? >> Well, of course. I mean, Joe had to decide.

14:02 >> Oh, yeah. I remember. Okay. Then this is just a general piece of advice for politicians or their significant others or whatever. Because I've heard common say this too. I hear Republicans say this constantly. Stop justifying your political decisions based off of what people tell you when you travel the country. Again, this is no hate to Joe Biden. All love. It just reminded me of something a lot of politicians do. They go, "Yeah, well, uh, what she said was, you know, we realized he should stay on the ticket cuz everywhere we went, people were like, Joe, you got to do it again. You got to do it again." Kamla recently uh was or someone I can't remember who someone was saying they didn't think Kamala could lose because of what they were seeing at rallies and who they were

14:48 t and all the people's reactions. Kamla Kamla um and Trump has done the same thing. is like I couldn't have lost the 2020 election cuz I was everywhere I went people loved me and it's like you know what you're saying doesn't make any sense because those are your rallies of course everyone's telling you you're amazing look at data and she says they did fair but I'm just saying politicians stop saying I did this because everyone was coming up to me when I traveled the country to listen to people you're at your own rally The whole crowd is there to cuz they already like you. So of course they're going to be like, "Do it. We love you." They get in this distorted world, Republicans Democrats where

15:33 their worldview is shaped by the love they get at their own events that are that are cultivated with people who already like them. So that's the third point. Anyways, much love, interesting stuff, but uh a few bizarre aspects.
