He's the president, the storms out in the ocean. CNN, again, leaving itself open to charges of
Starting point is 00:01:58 bias. Two stars for the NBC sitcom Will and Grace calling for exposure of potential Trump donors attending a fundraising event in Beverly Hills. Actor Eric McCormick asking the Hollywood reported to print the names of those attending the event so entertainment insiders can be quote clear about who we don't want to work with.

Get moving with real estate agents.Itrust.com, real estate agents, I trust.com. Time now for the O'Reilly Update. Message of the day Joe Biden's strategy to win the White House. According to the Associated Press, the former vice president said this at a recent campaign event, quote, racism in America is an institutional white man's problem.
Starting point is 00:04:22 visited on people of color. Mr. Biden went on to claim that President Trump is stoking racism to win re-election in 2020. But who is really doing that? It is obvious that Joe Biden needs African-American votes to win if he is the Democratic nominee. So he is directing a lot of his comments at that constituency. Mr. Biden recently said, quote, Racists still exist. It's real. It's there. The only way you deal with it is you attack it. You expose it. You embarrass it. You call them out. White folks are the reason we have institutional racism. Now, the phrase white folks is certainly dubious. Are all white folks inclined to be racist? Is that what Biden's point is? If so, that's bull. If it's not, then Mr. Biden needs to explain. Joe Biden also told reporters that President Trump is, quote, appealing to the worst damn instincts of human nature for political purposes.
Starting point is 00:05:37 Well, that's politics as usual. That doesn't bother me and it shouldn't bother you. That's what politicians do. They accuse each other of heinous things. But there is something more here. Now, Joe Biden is leading the other Democratic challengers in large part due to the support of African Americans, as I mentioned. He needs widespread support from black voters to win major urban areas like Philadelphia and Pittsburgh to flip Pennsylvania. Same for Michigan and Wisconsin.
Starting point is 00:06:09 Joe Biden also said he would prefer to pick a person of color or a woman as his running mate should he win the primary quote. Whomever I pick would preferably be someone who was of color and who was of a different gender. But I'm not making that commitment until I know the person that I'm dealing with and I can completely thoroughly trust the person is authentic and on the same page, unquote. Well, there's nothing wrong with that. Mr. Biden, if he wins the nomination, is entitled to pick whomever he wants to as his running mate. However, there is a tinge of gender and race in much of what Joe Biden is saying. Now, there was another incident over the weekend where the vice president told a story, I guess it was last
Starting point is 00:07:04 week, about a military guy who did not want to accept a medal for valor because other soldiers in his outfit died. Well, the story wasn't exactly true. Mr. Biden embellished it. There was no outcry. There was no Biden lied from the media, as there would have been had Donald Trump said that. The truth is that both Mr. Biden and Mr. Trump are imprecise speakers, and they always will be. That is the message of the day. For more news and analysis, please head on over to bill o'reilly.com.
