Time Text
We did everything right, Susan.
We could still lose more than 200,000 Americans.
That's right, exactly.
That was my point to you.
When I said last hour, if there had been 100,000, she would go, 100,000 Americans, worst administration in history.
I wish he'd have pointed out how many we lost in 68, 69 and didn't shut down the society when kids were dying, which they're not now.
So I will get emails.
What are you talking about?
There was a kid in Detroit who died.
So one or two or three invalidates the point.
Considerably more kids are killed in car crashes than by COVID. Next, please.
Vice President Pence, you were in the front row in a Rose Garden event 11 days ago at what seems to have been a super spreader event for senior administration and congressional officials.
No social distancing, few masks, and now a cluster of coronavirus cases among those who were there.
How can you expect Americans to follow the administration's safety guidelines to protect themselves from COVID when you at the White House have not been doing so?
Okay.
Well, the American people have demonstrated He's now going to deal with the Rose Garden, but I have to say, I don't understand his answer.
Do you understand that answer?
Okay, thank you.
He did this repeatedly, and I think he was better than her, but he did it repeatedly.
He would say pablum and then make a great point.
And so then he'd be out of time as he's making his great point.
Okay, go on.
Now the answer to the Rose Garden question.
If I may say, that Rose Garden event, there's been a great deal of speculation about it.
My wife Karen and I were there, and honored to be there.
Many of the people who were at that event, Susan, actually were tested for coronavirus.
And it was an outdoor event, which all of our scientists regularly and routinely advise.
The difference here is President Trump and I trust the American people to make choices in the best interest of their health.
Joe Biden and Kamala Harris consistently talk about mandates, and not just mandates with the coronavirus, but a government takeover of health care, the Green New Deal.
All government control.
We're about freedom and respecting the freedom of the American people.
Why don't he just say that without the beginning thing?
The American people are wonderful and da-ba-da-ba-da-ba-da-ba-do.
Okay?
I don't want to be told I'm wonderful by any politician.
Okay?
It is of no interest to me whether you think I and the rest of the people are wonderful.
I hate Pablum.
From my side or the other side.
That is the point.
We don't want to take over your life.
We trust Americans to make good decisions.
That's the answer.
And it was outdoors.
It was a super spreader.
If it was a super spreader, how many people got hospitalized?
President is overweight and 74 and he's fine.
So then people, well, he got special treatment.
Okay, maybe so.
He wants the space he announced.
I want this treatment given to everybody, if that's what it takes.
But at least he's a living example of, whoa, it doesn't appear to be that serious in a lot of people who are otherwise candidates for very serious sickness or death.
That's right.
Next, please.
80. The American people have had to sacrifice far too much because of the incompetence of this administration.
It is asking too much of the people.
Okay.
Right.
The incompetence of this administration.
What would they have done differently?
And why were there more deaths per million in places like Belgium?
Are they more incompetent in Belgium?
Just to give one example, the United States is eighth in per million deaths.
That's on the assumption, by the way, that the numbers are accurate.
We'll know, and I said truth is number one on this program.
So we will know, and we won't know by the end of this year, we'll know by the end of next year, how many excess deaths occurred this year.
Then I would say that...
That would be an accurate number of COVID. Not excess deaths because of highway collisions.
Even though they are up, oddly enough.
Much less traffic and there are more highway fatalities, apparently.
Because people are driving at crazy speeds.
I mean, I do 80, I admit it.
I do admit it.
I don't do more than 80. But people are passing me constantly.
I'm going with the flow of traffic at 80. That's the point I'm making.
All right.
Let's go.
Oh, yeah.
This was interesting.
Do 81. I'm sorry.
Kamala Harris.
Senator Harris, I mean.
I'm sorry.
It's fine.
I'm Kamala.
No, no.
Senator Harris to me.
I like that.
I like the moderator for saying that.
That is correct.
This was a new thing ushered in, I don't know, Bush administration?
I don't know, calling everybody by their first name.
It's just another deterioration.
