"So what's new, anything been going on?" asks Jimmy Kimmel as former VP Joe Biden sits down on the couch. As a frontrunner to take on Donald Trump in 2020 and also a central character in the Ukraine scandal that finally saw an impeachment inquiry announced against the president, Biden's had a weird week.
"It's awful hard to avoid the conclusion that [Trump pressuring the Ukrainian president] is an impeachable offense and a violation of constitutional responsibility," Biden says, with a precise mix of folksy equivocation and firmness.
He also talks about how Charlottesville, his son's cancer, and Jeb Bush not being president made him reverse his decision not to run for president; what it will take for Republicans to stand up against Trump; and how he feels about Trump rolling back every bit of Obama-era (and even earlier) environmental action he can get his hands on.
