In an interview to be featured during halftime of the Super Bowl, President Joe Biden has some tough news to bring to his supporters.

Democrats have been pushing for a $15 minimum wage for years and it was included in the text of the coronavirus relief package, but the president does not think it will make it to the final signing of the bill.

“You also want to raise the minimum wage to $15. Is that something you would be willing to negotiate on in order to get Republican support?” host Norah O’Donnell said.

“Well apparently, that’s not going to occur because of the rules in the United States Senate,” President Biden said.

“So you’re saying the minimum wage won’t be…” O’Donnell said but then the president interrupted her to tell her why he does not believe the provision will make it.

“My guess is it will not be in it, but I do think that we should have a minimum wage stand by itself, $15, work your way up to the 15, it doesn’t have to be a boom!

“And all the economics show if you do that, the whole economy rises. I’m prepared, as president of the United States, on a separate negotiation on a minimum wage, to work my way up to, from what it is now which is pain, look, no one should work 40 hours a week and live below the poverty wage, and if you’re making less than $15 an hour, you’re living below the poverty wage,” the president said.

“But that may not be in your American Rescue Plan,” O’Donnell said.

“No, I put it in, but I don’t think it’s going to survive,” he said.

He also said that he does not believe that former President Donald Trump should continue to get intelligence briefings as is customary.

"I just think that there is no need for him to have the — the intelligence briefings. What value is giving him an intelligence briefing? What impact does he have at all, other than the fact he might slip and say something?" the president said.
