Away, we are learning to live with it. They are quotes. As i told him last night, we are not learning to live with it, we are learning to die with it. Ahead. A dark winter already, more than 200 20,000 people in the United States of america have lost their lives to this virus. 220,000 empty chairs at dinner tables across this country. My heart goes out to every Single Person who has had to e ndure the agony of saying goodbye to someone they loved over video chat, who could not gather their closest friends, even their full family to grieve together at a funeral service. Worse yet, a new study from Columbia University suggests that anywhere between 130,000 and 210,000 of those deaths were avoidable. Leading medical journal in america, frankly in the world, wrote an unprecedented editorial , to the best of my knowledge they have never written anything like this.

Building infrastructure over the next ten years. Its not easy to do if you dont have to pick up a 30 million tab to defend your country. The European Community is in a position to pay a lot more than they have in the past. I agree with the president. And for us to bring the money back and here and we can only be a super power if were an economic superpower. One minute, sir. I agree with the general statement. I disagree we need 150,000 troops to fulfill our role in europe. We must maintain an engagement there. Theres dangers there. Theres other trouble spots in the world, which are closer to europe than the United States. But two former defense secretaries recently issued reports saying that 100,000 or slightly fewer troop troops would be enough.
