Nick Reed PODCAST: 03.28.22 - President Biden in Poland
Hour 2 - Happy Monday! Here's what Nick Reed covers this hour: CBS News White House correspondent Mark Knoller said President Biden's speech in Poland topped former President Ronald Reagan's "tear down that wall" speech. The White House has been forced to walk back or clarify multiple remarks made by President Biden during his trip to Europe -- including having to clarify on Saturday that the president was not calling for regime change in Moscow. Will Smith smacked Chris Rock on stage after he made a "G.I. Jane" joke about his wife Jada, who was diagnosed with alopecia in 2018, which causes hair loss. Nick and Sarah talk about the smack: was this something that was real, or was it staged to increase viewership? Sarah thinks it was fake because: 1. They're actors, they know how to fake a hit, and 2. In some videos, it looked like they smiled afterwards. Nick thinks it was real because of the response from both Chris Rock and Will Smith. President Biden spoke to troops in Poland. Biden said that they will witness the bravery of Ukrainians fighting off Russia’s invasion “when you’re there” — making a significant gaffe after he previously said the US must stay out of the European conflict to avoid triggering “World War III.”
