'If we do the same thing they do, our democracy will literally be in jeopardy.<br>Not a joke.'<br>Kimmel responded, 'It's like you're playing Monopoly with somebody who won't pass go or won't follow any of the rules, and how do you ever make any progress if they're not following the rules?'<br>'You've got to send them to jail,' Biden joked.<br> 'I think you need to start yelling at people,' Jimmy Kimmel (right) told President Joe Biden (left) during their sit-down Wednesday in Los Angeles<br> Biden's (left) first stop in Los Angeles, where he's attending the Summit of the Americas, was Kimmel's (right) Hollywood studio.<br><br>First Lady Jill Biden was in the audience, along with Biden´s granddaughter Naomi and her fiance<br> First LadyJill Biden (right), grand-daughter Naomi Biden (center) and her fiance Peter Neal (left) watch President Joe Biden's appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! <br> President Joe Biden (left) and First Lady Jill Biden (right) pose for a photo with Jimmy Kimmel (center) in Los Angeles Wednesday <br> At another point in the interview, Kimmel suggested he was disappointed in the progress that was being made on issues like climate change and abortion.<br>'We've moved backward,' he said.<br>Later on, Kimmel sympathized with Biden's challenges, particularly the upcoming U.S.<br><br>Supreme Court decision that is expected to overturn Roe v. Wade, which legalized abortion access nationwide. <br>'What a terrible job you have,' Kimmel said. 'I'm glad you're doing it. But, boy oh boy, does this seem like a bad gig.'<br>Biden said he was looking at executive orders that could help with abortion access - 'we're looking into it right now' - but said the best solutions were through legislation and elections.<br>If the court overturns Roe v.<br><br>Wade, Biden said, 'it's going to cause a mini revolution and they're going to vote a lot of these folks out of office.'<br> President Joe Biden (left) sits tight during a commercial break during his appearance Wednesday on Jimmy Kimmel Live! <br> Biden (left) said to Kimmel (right) that he wasn't keen to use executive action to provide gun control because he didn't want to 'emulate Trump's abuse of the Constitution'<br>As Kimmel suggested Biden become a yeller, the president said he has 'never been more optimistic in my life.' <br>Kimmel swiftly interjected: 'Why are you so optimistic?<br><br>It makes no sense!' <br>Biden said he was pinning his hopes on young people, the 'best educated, least prejudiced, most giving generation in American history.'<br>'This generation is going to change everything,' Biden said.<br>'We just have to make sure we don't give up.' <br>Biden has been frustrated by his poor poll ratings amid concerns about high gas and energy prices, baby formula shortages, and lack of progress on several legislative fronts like voting rights and abortion rights, as well as gun safety. <br>His advisers are hoping to retool their messaging in the upcoming weeks, hoping to focus on the positive elements of the economy, such as job and wage growth.<br>'Inflation is the bane of our existence,' Biden said.<br>He criticized U.S.<br><br>oil major Exxon Mobil for making fat profits but not drilling new wells or refining more gasoline and instead buying back its own stock.<br>'I mean, it's just ass - excuse me - it's backwards,' Biden said. <br>Biden's first stop in Los Angeles, where he's attending the Summit of the Americas, was Kimmel's Hollywood studio.
