Joe Biden talks about Jill rejecting his marriage proposals, finally saying 'OK' the 5th time

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden plan to have themselves a romantic little Christmas.

The couple appeared on Monday's Drew Barrymore Show in what was their first joint interview on daytime TV. They talked about his sweet Christmas gift tradition — and the enduring love between them after 45 years of marriage.

"One thing that Joe gives me every year is a poem," the English and writing professor, 71, told Barrymore. "He has a book that he bought for me and every year he writes a poem."

Barrymore asked if the president, 80, personally writes it, and he replied, "Of course I do. There's a lot to write about," grabbing his wife's hand. However, he quipped that the poem "doesn't quite do it,” as he buys her gifts, as well. She said that he once got her a "a full rose garden" for one of her birthdays, adding, "He pretty much gets it right."

I didn't know Drew Barrymore had her own show.

1. I am sure that the Rethugs will make a scandal out of this

claiming that Joe "coerced" Jill to do this.

What a wonderful couple the two of them are. I don't think Republicans can grasp that, and, even if they did, they would distort basic decency into despicable allegations. They absolutely excel at this.

6. Wonderful gesture

If you're not allergic to roses, like I am.

Which sucks, btw. I love how they look, but only at a distance.

Ah--choo!

[question everything]

5. Jill talked about it, before the elections

She was worried that if the marriage would not last - not unrealistic - that the boys would lose a mother a second time around.

7. If I'm remembering correctly, the BOYS asked him to ask her to marry him!

'Dad, when are you going to ask Jill to marry 'us?'

Quite a time for them all, after Neila and Amy's awful accident, and right at this time of year.

8. ❤️ ✿❧🌿❧✿ ❤️ Drew's show is just like she is

Warm, thoughtful, loving, curious, and occasionally a wee bit cringy.

It's wonderful to have three great women with new - love based shows on (Drew, Kelly Clarkson, Jennifer Hudson)
