What updates did President Biden share during his media tour?
Good morning, everyone. I'm Megyn Kelly. It's Thursday, May 8th, 2025, and this is your AM Update.
It was a hard decision, but regretful.
No, I think it was the right decision. Former President Biden hitting the interview circuit this week, reflecting on his term in office and offering thoughts on the current administration. Hint, he's against it.
The Russians are asking for a certain set of requirements. We think they're asking for too much.
Vice President J.D. Vance speaking candidly about how Russians are holding up peace negotiations. The Wall Street Journal reports the U.S. is ramping up its spying efforts on Greenland. A surge in general switcheroo. And a new poll shows Californians believe Governor Gavin Newsom is more focused on national ambitions than he is on running their state. All that and more coming up in just a moment on your AM Update. If you haven't heard about Riverbend Ranch, listen up. They have just introduced their Riverbend Ranch steaks to the marketplace and you need to try them. Riverbend Ranch raises their own beef on beautiful mountain meadows only a few miles from West Yellowstone. Unlike most ranches, Riverbend Ranch never uses growth hormones or antibiotics. They treat their animals humanely and with respect. There are advantages of buying directly from the ranch. They can track the health of every animal from the day it is born and can guarantee that it has been healthy every day of its life.
Riverbend Ranch has its own state-of-the-art processing facility on the ranch that has received several national awards as one of the best in the U.S. But most importantly is the quality of the beef. They age their beef to perfection for 21 days. You simply cannot buy beef like this in a grocery store. You cannot. Shipped directly from the ranch to your home, you get a much better price than going through the middlemen. Order directly from riverbendranch.com and use promo code MEGAN to get $20 off your first order. That's riverbendranch.com, code MEGAN. And be prepared. Once you taste it, I think you're going to be coming back for more and more. Again, riverbendranch.com, code MEGAN. Later today, President Biden set to appear on ABC's The View along with Dr. Jill Biden. Now a private citizen, Mr. Biden embracing a more open relationship with the press, appearing for two interviews this week alone, including a Wednesday sit-down with the BBC. The former president asked about the timing of his withdrawal from the 2024 race.
Should you have withdrawn earlier, given someone else a bigger job?
I don't think it would have mattered. We left at a time when we had a good candidate. She was fully funded. And what happened was I had become, what we had set out to do, no one thought we could do. I had become so successful on our agenda, it was hard to say, no, I'm going to stop now. It was a hard decision.
Regrets, though?
No, I think it was the right decision.
But you shouldn't have taken it earlier?
Well, I don't think so. I mean, I don't know how that would have made much difference.
A November report from the New York Post revealing the Biden team's internal polling at the time he dropped out showed then-candidate Trump on track to win 400 electoral votes in a would-be landslide loss for Mr. Biden. President Biden's decision to exit the race on July 21st, triggering a $200 million fundraising surge for the Harris campaign in just one week, eventually ballooning into a $2 billion war chest. With just 106 days to build a full presidential campaign, Ms. Harris drawing support from celebrity heavyweights like Oprah, Beyonce, Taylor Swift, and the Obamas, among dozens of others. Despite the star-studded backing and unprecedented fundraising, Ms. Harris became the first Democratic nominee in two decades to lose both the popular and the electoral vote. President Biden also criticizing the Trump administration's effort to negotiate an end to Russia's war on Ukraine.
President Trump is now saying, look, if you want peace... Ukraine is gonna have to give up some territory. Some people think that is common sense to say that. Do you think it's not common sense? It's perhaps modern day appeasement?
