Transcripts For DW Conflict Zone 20240713

The u. S. Has been the country worst 55 a corrupted laughs infection rates are skyrocketing relative to other countries around the world my guest this week from washington is the Republican National Party Spokesperson Elizabeth Harrington could President Trump of done far more than he did to stop this miers both of them to build. Lives my parents are back into conflict zones thank you for having me you said on april the 19th of the president has moved with record speed to combat the ground virus and bring relief to hard working americans. But theres been no record speed on testing for the virus has there despite all the false assurances that have come from the white house we have this from your own governor larry hogan from maryland who said the president s claim that states have enough tests to be open is just absolutely forms why is the president putting out false information. Well thats not true the president has put out and been very transparent in the information he provided in the taskforce briefing just yesterday he showed the 5000 different places locations across this country where testing is available and ready to be used by governors across or great nation and if you look at the speed at which President Trump has acted its been unprecedented and this is an amazing under president situation but every step of the way prison terms may hold early decisions where naysayers ridiculed him and accused him of being seen a photo back the World Health Organization said it would only bring stigma and would save lives with travel restrictions well prison transport proven correct and as dr felt he has had numerous times those travel restrictions in the very beginning did save lives and when it comes to testing right now we have 93 percent of americans are within 10 miles of a testing location thats it unprecedented cheeseman a very short amount of time when you think about what the c. D. C. Infrastructure had in place with a broken system that really just wouldnt have been feasible for any any type of virus that like this that were facing right now in the way weve been able to waive regulations get the private sector involved to have more capacity per capita more testing in the york city by 64 percent than south korea had thats it an amazing achievement and done in a matter of weeks thats very impressive so the governors like larry hogan. Of the republican governors of my de wine from ohio for instance he says that states simply cannot find the materials and religions to expand their testing capacity. Larry hogan himself absolutely false he says the president s claims of us. They dont know what theyre talking about is that its a lump of it is a lack of communication on their part it is were talking about ramping up something thats unbelievable in a very quick amount of time and youre talking about china that was a net exporter of p p e before this pandemic and then suddenly when they were hiding the truth from the world what did they do they became a net importer of p p e and have been hoarding that so it has been a challenge across the world to get the needed supplies and medical devices that we needed and if youve been watching the Task Force Briefings the task force has been explaining at the very beginning there was only one place to get slots that we could use for tests and that was from a factory in northern italy where they had obviously issues of their own so it has ben there have been challenges along the way but the really unprecedented way to get the private sector involved the task force talked yesterday about a company that was making qtips is now changing what they do to make swaps to get states the resources they need and look by and large theyre the stray ship and has worked very well with these governors of both Political Parties and theyve really come together to deliver for the American People no one has gone without a ventilator that needed one we have the army corps of engineers building up hospitals 1200 beds in a matter of days beds that we thankfully not need in new york city so by and large this is then a phenomenal achievement all hands on deck working with the private sector to deliver the supplies that we need and it fast way where you serve much the sevens mr trump told the country tests were available to everyone anybody that needs a test gets a test theyre there they have the test and the tests a beautiful except that it was left to me found she had been. Director of the National Institute of allergy and Infectious Diseases to come clean how much the 12th and tell the nation what the president wouldnt tell us was still not provided adequate testing for the virus its failing he said lets admit it he said this to congress the idea of anybody getting testing easily the way people in other countries are doing and were not set up for that i think it should be but were not thats in direct contradiction to what youve been telling me is no its not if you look you can go back in time and try to rewrite history with facts you have now with the facts at the time when he was at the c. D. C. In atlanta how many cases do we have in the United States a very low number so when youre talking about anyone who needed a test needed that was available and of course dr fouty has talked about this numerous times you know what the problem was with testing at the very outset was that government did not have the capability for a nationwide test that we had to go to the private sector and when we got the private sector involved that led us to become the world leader in testing so its very convenient for people to go back and rewrite history but the facts at the time in early march when we had a very limited number of cases we were able to test people send it to the c. D. C. And get those results back to guess what as the crisis changed as the problem adapted we adapted and we waved the necessary onerous regulations that required states to send all of their testing to be testing at the c. D. C. That wasnt feasible but guess what that was what the regulations forced us to do by waiving that and by working with the f. D. A. And listening to what dr burke says said she spent a lifetime begun. Service shes never seen an administration be able to talk to the doctors and private companies on the front lines what they need and saying theres this roadblock because government is in the way with this regulation and this administration has stepped up and gotten those people on the front lines the Research Says they need to say that this isnt a question rewriting history this is recording what people said at the time and within 5 days of each other and to be found to the director of the National Institute of allergy and Infectious Disease something completely different from the president namely the testing is failing and thats in direct contradiction to what mr trump unset 5 days earlier we are totally prepared it wasnt the u. S. Wasnt totally prepared for this was it you yourself admitted you werent prepared for it because you didnt know it was going to happen was germany prepared was anyone prepared was china prepared ok and this is this is ridiculous hindsight rewriting of history because the fact of the matter is when he was at the c. D. C. Meeting with the experts who were leading this response this is you asian changes a lot in 5 days you know that everyone knows that when you have cases all of a sudden doubling of course the situation changes but the fact remains weve taken a system that was not able to process the types of capabilities that we need and weve turned that around in a matter of weeks and its an impressive accomplishment in the u. S. Is now the world leader in testing and again lets quote after fouchier what he say on friday testing is important but its not everything and so the media to rewrite history and now after they fail to get President Trump and say we dont have enough ventilators and hes you know being reckless by not giving new york city 30000. And when that was nowhere near what we needed now theyre saying testing testing testing we dont have enough well the fact remains testing is important we have the capability to reopen our country but what good does a task say today that youre negative and then tomorrow you contract the virus its just the media is using this to attack the president when its completely uncalled for and theyre completely rewriting history ideas of them team you have to have to find out you say tapping the president you served if you had a process that was ongoing the new study of mitigation you could have saved lives but he noted there was a lot of pushback about shutting things. Thats thats really that is not yet guess what dr foushee clarified those comments because it was a gotcha question a hypothetical by c. N. N. Guess what he said the next day you are misinterpreting what i said of course a hypothetical of course you can go back and say if we would have done this or we would have done that you know what dr house he set every step of the way when we recommended mitigation when President Trump said ok when when when so that is when President Trump acted said lets do 15 days to slow the spread thats one president transept ok lets do 30 more days to slow the spread so you are totally taking dr fallacy out of context its not accurate and he cleared this up for everyone to say and the media attacked him for it and the media said are you being forced to say thats really denigrating the integrity of dr fouty and i think its really irresponsible for people in the media to continue to try to use people who are working 24 hours a day on this to try to say they have that youll notice they have done an incredible job. All working together when the recommendations were presented to President Trump he took them and you know nancy pelosi what was she doing in february she was saying come to china town she wasnt taking this seriously oh she should have been in Congress Giving relief to americans and shes Still Holding it up so dont tell me that republicans and president trunk havent acted immediately and havent taken this seriously when we see delay after delay after delay for democrats in congress how helpful was it in this with harrington to cut the funding for u. S. Public and stop operating inside china by 2 thirds reducing the numbers from 47 people in general 2017 to 14 by 29 dead by removing a substantial number of the vital eyes and ears installed in china that could have told you this was breaking how can i know that china did not help us whatsoever so it wouldnt have really made a difference about who was making the ground they kicked out journalists they kicked out they disappeared doctors who were sounding the alarm they along with their allies in the corrupt World Health Organization hid the truth about the virus for over a month for 6 or 7 weeks and no out for our people to travel outside of china when they restricted travel inside their own country its amazing that theyre trying to shift the blame to the United States of america when china because of their corruption because of their secrecy because of their to seat the entire world is suffering because of that lack of transparency and then lying in the World Health Organization saying youre looking anywhere 14 or so theres no human to human transmission of the virus that was a disk. Sting law that was causing millions of people their lively great suspense the funding for u. S. Public if its accurate i havent seen the specifics of that fact that democrats in the media have been falsely accusing the president of cutting the c. D. C. Budget and Everything Else and thats just not true so i havent seen those details and i would suspect that this is not accurate as well 30 percent green but what would it do when chinas kicking out journalists in trying to time is not sharing the information with us so i know. How accurate this transition human you have an epidemiologist who is actually inside chinas own disease can travel agency and the funding for that was cut last year babies belief doesnt i dont think the funding was cut back just on that i dont think thats accurate. So when jobs says i wish i could they could have told us earlier what was going on inside china but they dont. Because they know him did you are american scientists control which chinese labs are telling the world its just amazing that youre trying to blame america for something that china they are the ones who hid the truth about this virus and let it escape and unleashed around the world and its caused incredible amount of pain for not just the United States but the entire world and its shameful and we need to get to the bottom of it and china needs to be open and honest about what exactly was going on because their lives have really caused just a tremendous Global Global economic. Plight. Of lives lost and its a direct result of a communist regime covering up their failures and not being honest with the world its certainly not a fault of america you said you didnt know this was going to happen the Intelligence Community is worldwide threat assessment in 2019 said we assess that the United States in the world will remain vulnerable to the next flu pandemic will large scale outbreak of contagious disease that could lead to massive rates of death and disability and severely affect the World Economy turns out to be in pretty accurate doesnt it in 28 you also closed the Global Health Security Office at the National Security council to use main job was to prepare for and prevent the kind pandemic could we see now that is not true that as fast as 10 worsen here were headed that interagency in the National Security council asked him because he was in charge of that and just any he didnt close it they were working on this at the National Security council of course they were. Concerned about the potential problem but you know what was what was the other aspects of the Intelligence Community what were they what were they warning about in early january i tend to remember it was all about ukraine and pretending that ukraine up momentarily pausing a. T. U. Crane was our biggest National Security threat how laughable that was then and its certainly laughable now with the democrats d did wasting our time you know what adam should no traitor to your talents. When adams shift even when he was still in the minority and represent daven nunez was trying to hold a hearing on the threat posed by china adam schiff hijacked those hearings to talk about russia so democrats its very rich that their leakers in the Intelligence Committee community who have been talking about ukraine and russia for months are suddenly now trying to rewrite the script and pretend they were actually warning about a coming pandemic it is laughable how your Intelligence Service it was in the it was in the 2019 threat assessment well what threat assessment what was done about it was sponsored by the worldwide threat assessment you know it was done because it struck signed an executive from europe or president transcend an executive order last summer that incentivized government to buy American American to bring our core manufacturing so were not dependent on china for the supply chain so were not dependent for their medicines that is what the president has been working on since day one and of course that will put us in a better position and if anything that happens when we get to the other side of this awful pandemic what will happen is were going to continue to bring back that core manufacturing were going to continue to put america 1st and were going to meet the challenges ahead its ridiculous to try to rewrite. Mystery and pretend that the intel gets broken if that has been a leaking and a lot about President Trump using it talk about this information using disinformation from fake russian sources to try to sabotage President Trump before he got into office and ever since theyre trying to rewrite the script now and say ok really no no i didnt see it until you said i dont think the russians would be responsible for this heat he gave them a clean bill of health didnt he said he believed president putin. Looked into his eyes he believed what he said when putin had denied any involvement in hacking into american system from believed to be given a free pass. Democrats in the media are giving themselves a free pass for literally publishing russian descent from a nation for over 3 years because guess what Hillary Clintons dot ca was a bunch of lies they knew it was a bunch of lies and guess oh they didnt care they leaked it anyway try to legitimize a false narrative against the president making russia way more impressive than they clearly are this is hysterical narrative that can collusion that was always i was i and its really its really disgusting that now after wasting 3 years of Media Attention and that endless investigations taxpayer harder taxpayer dollars on this madness now theyre trying to say oh we actually were warning about a pandemic give me a break add shift in hold any hearings on china which everyone knew was the actual real threat not russia and im Certain Company Administration Just perfect and it made any mistakes it will never never apologize its all perfect is it this is what you. Look at you look at the results you look at. The results and you look at the mill stave made they have adapted theyve made the best decisions possible with the information at the time and it is put us in an incredible position much better than many other countries in the rest of the war he calls it president Charles Steger 2000 confirmed cases about 4 times more than the next night is number one i guess you believe chinas numbers to write you love communist chinas regime that is clearly suppressing the chickens from the us. Its chinese its communist chinese propaganda their numbers and they want the world to blame america for their own pandemic that they have wasted on the world so youre doing the work of communists in china but please go on to use their numbers more move people dont believe the president anymore and what he said about the ground of ours today latest n. B. C. Wall street journal poll only 36 percent of respondents in the bow so they generally trust what trump has said 52 percent say they dont trust him so youre not winning the trust battle i bet when this newly resident your jobs have lost their jobs millions around the lockdown. Youre going to politicize it and say that its President Trumps fall for saying so which is it oh youve come out of here should we not shut down the economy did he actually slow busy racist or art didnt act early just that it does no matter what i say your stake resident trump is just the worst person that ever lived so give me a break and anything like the great youre just. Whining that weve done that its our fault. I mean this regime on least a pandemic there cover up at least a pandemic on the world that the entire world including germany is having to clean up so President Trump has done an amazing job dealing with this and youre going to try used hurting jobless americans against him in your in your it was cheerleading for the chinese he said john has been working very hard to contain the virus the u. S. Greatly appreciate their efforts and transparency yet china was lying to us at the time. Yeah and it was also obamas fault that you didnt have a test is that right. Well it was certainly it was certainly obama in bidens thought that the stockpile of end 95 masks were depleted would you agree with that. To me to agree or disagree with that i was merely said many times he did her rigid a broken down i think leaves all those facts and its convenient that the obama biden illustration which is as you claim everyone knew this pandemic was coming why did they leave us completely empty with the stockpiles of mass and other critical supplies they knew that in 2009 theres a hearing with then secretary of health and Human Services secretary Kathleen Sebelius where she acknowledged that the stockpiles for empty she acknowledged that all of her medical supplies were empty bad 8 years and they never did a single thing to refill that stockpile so our question is a problem and we present healthcare its a failure of government bureaucracies and onerous rep regulations that have got that gotten in the way for far too long present tromp wisely as a unleashed the private sector got rid of these owners regulations working in conjunction with the f. D. A. With the c. D. C. To get americans their resources they need its been and it is been an incredible achievement and you know i think quarterback everything you want but the fact remains President Trump is up there every single day answering every single question being transparent unlike the communists in china being honest and arent you very well military and took it for themselves to leave it there thank you very much for being on conferences.
