I heard him say his grammar is not always correct, but nothing I heard suggested he agreed with the campaign's characterization that he "misspoke." It was a bob and weave that literally had me screaming at the tv, along with some of Harris's answers.

Inflation - she plainly said that the early goal when they came into office was to respond to a crisis. Fine. How about saying that meant spending tons of money, that it was successful, but that spending that kind of money in combination with supply chain problems necessarily led to inflation. Then, the administration has helped bring the rate of inflation down, but wages have not increased sufficiently in the middle class to offset the impact and her plan will address that on day one. And noting that the US has the lowest rate of inflation in the world -- cuz it was and is a world-wide problem -- because of the administration's work that has strengthened the economy.

Immigration - Biden didn't use executive orders to minimize the numbers because Trump's orders were struck by the courts and Biden/Harris respect the judicial branch of government. Then talk about the bill Trump killed. Then, say the only option left after that was executive orders which, in fact, are being challenged in the courts now.

Seems so simple to just answer the questions. I really did not appreciate the bob and weave, and I doubt we'll see much bump from the interview.
