    1. “I would love to finish my sentence…” you mean the sentence you started to interrupt her from making her counterpoint and ask her follow-up question?

      This is their tactic. The WH reps and the campaign reps are all doing this. Just talk over the person who is relating the actual facts as loudly as you can, and just keep talking, don’t stop, bulldoze through. Exhausted from this.

  1. The alcohol has clearly slowly taken over this man as the interview went on..he sounded pretty drunk by the end…and the sniffing all of sudden…

    1. Khoa Vo yea thats true, thats probably because at the time they didnt have enough ppe for the front line workers themselves. But as soon after they started saying you should be wearing a mask, maybe you haven’t seen the news since March? 🇨🇦

  2. Kudlow referring to democratic lawmakers-multiple times- as “the other team” is exactly everything wrong with how this administration is dealing with the response to this pandemic.

    1. Exactly. I have family members including my daughter who have been health professionals and faced some heart breaking scenes and situations. Not one of them have had the PPE they’ve need.

  3. That was hard to watch. Every time she pressed him on something, he tried to change the subject and spin it in the presidents favor.

    1. Ok course trump and his cronies are masters of distractions when it does not support their narrative

    2. It’s been 6 months! If people were going to “act responsibly, as individuals” on Mass, it would have happened by now! Maybe it would help if we had a consistent message coming from the White House, that aligned with the actual experts.

    3. He cited a study to support his claim. She responded by explaining she spoke with an author of that study, and it didn’t support his claim. He rebuttals that we shouldn’t be listening to academics-the very academics he was trying to invoke for his claims-and instead listen to wildly varying, intangible anecdotes. Wow!

    1. They won’t resign, we must vote Trump and his cronies out. No compassion. If there’s no jobs to go back to WTF

    1. He was saying the economy was great as the GFC struck. He is like a blind person looking at a picture, pointing in the right direction but can’t see what is there.

  4. “I would love to finish my sentence”. It’s Your show but I’m going to make the rules. Whatever!!

  5. “The University of Chicago study proves I’m right.”
    But, the UC study says you’re wrong.
    “The University of Chicago study is b*** s***!”

  6. “Understanding the issue of safety, but I don’t care, go back to make my burgers” – Dumb Advisor
