    Conan, why are you ruining your reputation like this? You were supposed to be the only late night host with any sense of reality and comedy. Next time you have Bill Burr on, show him this interview, I am sure he will destroy you for it and deservedly so.

    … i’m not conservative, far from right winged, and the timing of this reeks of propaganda from a dying administration. The hell with them and the cult of Trump!

    Thanks Coco. People who hate Biden don’t listen to his kindness and decency. Or they prefer bluster and ignorance. I pity those people.

    Having the likes of Clinton and Biden on shouldn’t be surprising considering Henry Kissinger’s son runs Conan’s production company… their is nothing redeemable about the Genocide that Biden is allowing and and what HRC did to Libya . I am Surprised Henry Kissinger was never on, I’m sure he would have joked about all his war crimes or been allowed to validate them…

    The only tragedy is that he’s in the White House, instead of a nursing home.

    He is such a liar everything he said was a lie. Ask about the border, climate bs killing the middle class, economy he destroyed, the 50 million he took as bides, why he allowed 18,000 people killed in Ukraine by Ukraine army because their people wanted to join Russia which Obama and Biden did

    Conan is trying to set him up to deliver the goods, but Biden can’t quite get there. What Joe endured is horrific, but he doesn’t actually talk about empathy for others. He talks about how he persevered through tragedy, and how people learned how to maybe do the same from watching him. Then he talks about how people need help in the abstract. There’s also some talk earlier in the clip of being taught not to hit below the belt, having “pride”, “hurting people on the way down”, and humiliating bullies. Like I said, what this guy went through is awful – and I wouldn’t wish it upon anyone – but I don’t find him or Trump particularly empathetic.

    Oh god Conan. I NEVER thought you would lower yourself to this level. How much did they offer you? You really need the money?
    You don’t have to like Trump but to try to prop up this senile war profiteering non-human I thought was beneath you. I was honestly waiting for the reveal that this was some A.I. joke.
    Congratulations Conan, you’re now one of the shills.

    Yes that Empathy when Biden nationally with out verification repeated Israeli propaganda of beheaded babies. Even after his administration said he never saw photos he said he did and Israel even stepped back from the statement. The same Empathy that has allowed his PR team to compare Pro Palestinians students to Charlottesville white supremacists and has ignored the apartheid and illegal settlements that has led to were we are today.
