Theres a reason it has hit america worse than any other advanced nation. Its because of trumps failure to take it seriously from the start. Six months into this pandemic, more than 5. 2 million americans have gotten the disease. Nearly 167,000 have lost their lives. On wednesday, another 1400 deaths were reported nationwide. The highest number weve seen in weeks. And yet when the president was asked about Kamala Harris accusing him of making things worse, heres what President Trump had to say. I think thats probably one of the reasons she was a terrible candidate and was forced to leave the race because she got her facts wrong. Shes very bad on facts. Very weak on facts. When you look at the job weve done compared to others, weve done a great job. My goodness. All right. Weve not done a great job but what we do have is all the angles covered here. Ali vitali in wilmington, delaware, carol lee at the white house. This rollout is now complete. They raised a ton of dough online. Tell us a
The controversial changes have effectively slowed down mail service by cutting back office hours, eliminating most overtime and in some cases even taking letter collection boxes off the streets. These photos were taken at a Bronx Post Office facility, although its unclear whether all these mailboxes were removed recently. Democrats are accusing the president of trying to steal the election. Lets not make provisions for people to be able to participate in this democracy without having to run the risk of contracting a disease that could kill them. I never thought that i would live to see the United States of america tolerate a tyrant who seems to just trample upon our constitution. John lewis would be so disappointed that he nearly gave his life to get the vote for people of color and to watch complicity of the republicans in holding on to this kind of shenanigans is just beyond me. This to me i never thought that i would see this country allow this to happen. Even so, the president cont
The roundtable comes as a new poll out just moments ago finds the majority of americans, 52 , think the United States handling of the pandemic is worse than other countries. That disapproval over the handling of the crisis is something that the Biden Campaign appears to be drilling into in their attacks against President Trump. While the Trump Campaign and their allies are sharpening their attacks against the democratic ticket. This morning were learning that their strategy may be worrying some in their party. Meanwhile, were getting our first look at how voters are reacting the the biden harris ticket. A new Reuters Ipsos poll shows 46 of adults in that poll said they would vote for a biden harris ticket. 38 said they would vote for President Trump. Nbcs ali vitali is in wilmington, delaware, ahead of that biden harris event just a couple hours from now. So we saw them preview what their campaign is going to look like at that first event together on wednesday. How effective was that .
Leland gillian, nice to be with you as well. The suffering in louisiana, the southern part of the state, its unimaginable for most of us at home with air conditioning and watching television.

One of the hardest hit
Weeks or months being able to put together the whole initiative relating to the biggest promise we have. We celebrate that a vaccine may be available, but thats the guy who will be on watch to make the distribution happen, and trump wont let him learn anything about the process. How can he be about America First when hes guaranteeing that we will be last in terms of our preparedness. Were in a pandemic.

The hhs secretary didnt even deny it today. In fact, he defended it. Listen. We have made it very clear that when gsa makes a determination, we will ensure complete cooperative professional transitions and planning. But thats we follow the guidance. Were about getting vaccines and they are pewters invented and saving lives here. Thats where our focus is. Focus is on saving lives, but you have been largely inactive dur
