SOTU reaction was 'nice,' not 'rowdy' despite GOP heckling, Biden tells ABC
Biden told ABC News' Will Steakin that he thought the reception to his State of the Union speech was “nice” when asked what he thought of the occasionally rowdy reaction from some Republicans while he spoke.
“Rowdy? I thought it was a nice reception," Biden said with a smile and laugh.
His remarks were met with several rounds of GOP interjections, notably when he spoke about how Republicans could try to cut Social Security and Medicare -- although he noted he wasn’t saying the “majority” of Republicans wanted to do so, and Speaker McCarthy has ruled it out.
