Trump administration. This is 25 minutes. I want to thank senators casey and baldwin and merkley for joining us today. We all know that america is in the midst of a third wave of cases. We are seeing the record breaking numbers of new infections, hospitalizations and rising death rates. After President Trumps failure to contain the virus, it was encouraging today for the caucus at the lunch to hear doctor murphy, the cochair of the president elect corona advisory board. You know what was great, he was a scientist, he knew the facts, and he will be listened to. Whenever fauci came to speak we said this is great but we know trump will pay no attention. But doctor murphy was brilliant in his presentation, and hes going to have input, so that made all of us feel a lot better to feel the change in atmosphere in this whole town. Now its clear senator bidens team, sorry, president elect joe bidens team is ready to hit the ground running and theres going to be light at the end of the tunnel fi
