  1. QUIDPROJOE…total embarrasment

  2. I agree with everything EXCEPT the delayed/Cancelled flight fees. Airlines are going to start risking safety for timeliness if you reward repairs to fit a faster timeline. Well intentioned, but not fully thought out!

  3. Thank you! When I’m not paying triple for my groceries for a family of 5 maybe we can reap these “benefits”.

  4. He doesn't event understand what he just said. You can see it in this eyes.

  5. Lol yea can the junk fees so the airline raises the price to make up for the difference so instead of a few being charged for the inconvenience they created, now we all get to pay an inflated price. Classic. No company is setting out to loose money here, so they are going to increase the sales price of the item or service to cover the difference. The consumer still doesn't win but they won't price cap or prevent price gauging because we live in a capitalist country, people have the right to charge, high or low what they feel the service is worth, and if they don't make a profit that paves the way for other companies to come along and provide cheaper and so on and so forth. It's the way it goes. Plus government and it's officials make money off of making decisions to benefit these companies to do things that favor their profits. It's business, that's why Trump was better at this than the rest because he ran it like a competitive business but any good business owner knows the machine(the business) runs best when all the parts (employees) are happy, healthy and properly maintained.

  6. Not that I'm for junk/resort fees. I'm just wonder how this idiot is going to set a Federal ban against it. So Bellagio Vegas is going to be cheaper now because of Big Joe? Get real!

  7. Eggs are $10 dollar Joe…

  8. Why is the Government interfering with free enterprise. Nobody is forced to buy concert tickets or book resorts. If the Government gets involved companies will just jack up their prices and do away with so called junk fees. They are not just going to make less money because the guy behind the teleprompter wants them to.

  9. Biden is such a clown 🤡

  10. Im 💯 for this act to pass. Thats how we restore balance back to the middle class!

  11. Democrats constantly work for American CONSTANTLY. You will not and do not see anything like this coming from republicans.

  12. "last year i cut 90 percent of shipping costs" meanwhile manufactures are like…"bet"

  13. Worldwide news outlets covered it and say President Joe and Trump Desantis Clinton and America people are becoming the jokes around the world

  14. Kamala trying so hard to get that standing ovation for stuff that never should have been a thing to begin with.

  15. I don't understand how all these people in the comments can be so stupid to hate on Biden for trying to pass a bill that lets consumers accurately compare prices to book hotel rooms or airline tickets. This relatively recent issue started happening when online advertisers and retailers realized they can deceive consumers by offering fake prices up front. Better to stamp it out now before it gets out of hand. I'm not in favor of the non compete agreement ban though.

  16. Look at the Re'PUKE'blicans ;; I mean republicans. Those demons are bought and sold.

  17. Junk fees are the LEAST of the average American problems, this guy is a DUNCE 🤡🤡🤡

  18. Will ABC News please provide the names of All those Republicans who want to "Sunset Social Security and Medicare"? Some say Joe Biden is a filthy liar for making that claim.

  19. Stop car dealerships they are the worst abusers for junk fees, people can`t afford to buy a new car or used one in good condition.

  20. I agree with that idea. Let's get rid of these I put a stop to this kind of nonsense we got time to pay one phone company to pay off another I feel that way people like us can have our money back. At the same thing with overdrft fees. They are a joke. But, I do agree that these fees need to go! As a matter of fact I used to end up paying overdraft fees every time I I think it is time that these overdraft fees need to stop. And they need to stop now! As a matter of fact I just got through paying well over four hundred dollars in overdraft fees. That didn't give me any time to basically save any money! So that is why I think we need to pass the bill as soon as possible. If we do not pass this bill? Then we are in big trouble! Joyce Joe Biden said let's pass this junk fee prevention act as soon as possible.

  21. Biden = GOAT
    God bless America !

  22. Airlines already show you the full price when you pay 🤔

  23. The only country that has in fact prospered under Biden is Ukraine.
    Maybe he mixed the two up.

  24. I got so bored that I decided to switch to watch Netflix.
    He's just not interesting.

  25. Joe, what happened to the millions of dollars you and your son received from China ?

  26. The leader of yours is a complete and utter liar.

  27. Some of these measure seem okay. But that’s it. How about measures that address health care, the overpriced college education, lobbying in government etc. Btw when he mentioned the anti compete measure he gave the dumbest example. Talking about fast food preventing workers from applying to competitors. He seemed to really believe it too. The measure would apply for high value trades, skills like engineering, and corporate mgrs. These measures are things that seem relatable to most people but really not that impactful.

  28. Donkeys masquerading as humans…
    How the learned to clap idk

  29. It all sound good. Will it work? So far nothing he does work. We all suckers. We need some changes in our industries. We know who to blame from the begining.

  30. Dignity?there is no dignity with wolves..
    We the people are getting milked everywhere we go…while the rich pay no tax..the price gouging has to stop..
    It's like all of America is like buying stuff at the movie theaters…

  31. What a stupid waste of time. Rambling and patting himself on the back and still HIGH CRIME, FOOD, GAS, BORDER CRIME AND NO THANK YOU TO MILITARY OR POLICE…WHAT A DISGRACE

  32. Fine all us companies dodging tax by moving their businesses to foreign countries with low tax..

  33. All can see the looks on the republicans' faces that say.. Biden is saying what the nation needs, and we're not.

  34. Republicans wanted a civil war. They got Trump's GQP of insecure MAGA Y'all Qaeda terrorist Karens v. antiquated, weak GOP.

  35. Those higher prices (on imported goods) are tariffs Joe. To encourage americans to buy American products. But keep up the lies Joe, doing a fantastic job as THEIR puppet
