In a recent interview with FOX Business, Kevin O’Leary, known for his "Shark Tank" fame, shared his thoughts on the Supreme Court Chevron ruling and President Biden’s comments on "investing in energy shortages."
Don't Miss:
- Can you guess how many Americans successfully retire with $1,000,000 saved? The percentage may shock you.
- Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos are bullish on one city that could dethrone New York and become the new financial capital of the US. Investing in its booming real estate market has never been more accessible.
The President delivered a speech on Tuesday, July 2, at the D.C. Emergency Operations Center about extreme weather and his proposal to protect Americans from extreme heat.
However, during the speech, the President made a faux pas. Reading from the teleprompter, he said, "We've invested billions to enhance our power grid, expand energy shortages so that lights, air conditioning, refrigeration, internet stay on during heat waves, storms, and other climate changes. It's building back a different way."
Instead of saying storages, the President mentioned shortages, which caused a whirlwind of reactions from both sides of the aisle.
It also prompted Kevin O’Leary to say, "It speaks for itself, and I really think Biden’s family has to do some soul-searching here. I’m not the only person saying that."
He also mentioned that he’s talking and meeting with prominent Democrats to understand their point of view before saying, "I don’t know what’s going to happen. It’s crazy chicken right now."

O’Leary’s comments come after Biden’s disastrous debate performance against former President Donald Trump. During the debate, Biden appeared tired and unfocused, which he later attributed to sickness. He said, "Because I was sick, I was feeling terrible. As a matter of fact, the doctor was with me — I asked if they did a COVID test because I was trying to figure out what was wrong."
The President also blamed jet lag and a busy international travel schedule leading up to the event. He had relatively recently returned from trips to Italy for the G7 summit and France for the D-Day anniversary. Still, he had spent six days at Camp David preparing for the debate.
These explanations have done little to suppress concerns among Democrats, who are worried about his campaign’s momentum and capability to effectively compete against Trump in the upcoming election. The debate fallout has also negatively impacted Biden’s poll numbers, giving Trump a slight edge as the campaign progresses. The media also hasn't let up, with analysts picking apart everything he did and said. This scrutiny has further fueled the narrative that Biden’s age and health may be significant liabilities.
Supporters are calling for a stronger defense strategy and better planning of his public appearances to avoid future mistakes. Meanwhile, his campaign team is working hard to convince voters and party members that Biden can still lead effectively.
