Thesee ballots are missing. Youyo saw patterson, new jersey. You saw many other instances. Theresri tremendous litigationn that right now. And that doesnt include absentee. Absentee is different. Absentee you have to work, and you have to send in for applications, you have to go through a whole procedure. Like, for instance, im an absentee voter because i cant be in florida because im in washington, im at the white house. Ill be b an absentee voter. We have a lot of absentee voters. So were inrs favor of absentee, but its much different than millions of people. In california they go to send out tens of millions of voting tomorrows. Well, where are they going to go . You read where postmen are in big trouble now, you read where City Councils are in big trouble now. Voter fraud all over the ballots. So, no, i want to get i want to be standing, hopefully hand held high, big victory, because were doing things with our country that i think nobody else could have done. Our country is, despite this pandemic which is devastating the rest of the world, by the way, devastating, one of the articles that came out was the worlds covid resurgence. This is the wall street journal ed editorial. The main editorial yesterday in the wall street journal. I dontt always agree with the, but they have the worlds covid resurgence. Countries hailed as models to see andhe then they go, the virs returns at a level like its never they havent even seen. Weve been giving praise to certainrt countries, and the vis has now come to them like, like the first time. But its very interesting, and it talks about many countries where everybody was holding them up and saying what a great job they did. Well, its just one of those things. Didnt work out so well. So we want to have an election. Id love to see voter id. But this is the opposite of voter id. The democrats love it, the republicans hate out. We republicans hate it. We all agree that absentee is good. You know, t we talk about russi, russia, russia. For two and a half years and then they found nothing, and there was nothing. But they talk russia, russia, russia, they talk china, they talk allay of these countries. They say they get involved in our elections. This is easy. You can forge ballots. This is much easier for foreign countries. Go ahead, steve. Probably a nonstarter, wouldnt you agree to that . I just feel i want to delay. I want to have the election. But i also dont want to have to wait for three months and then find out that the ballots are all missing and the election doesnt mean anything. Thatsll whats going to happen, steve. Thats common sense. And everyone knows w out. Smart people know it. Stupid people may not know it. And some people dont want to talk about it, but they know it. And, no, we want to have an election where people actually go and whats your name, my name is so and so, you sign the book like ive been doing for jeer years. Its very, very unfair to our country. If they do this, our country will be a laughing stock. How many ballots are they sending to california . 28 million or some massive number. Other states are sending out millions and millions of ballots . They had news organizations experimenting. And, look, read the story in the Washington Post about the mailin voting. Im very surprised to see that story, frankly, from them. The storys a disaster. So were asking for a lot of trouble. And, no, do i want to see a date change . No. But i dont want to see a crooked election. This election will be the most rigged election in history, if that happens. Mr. President , you said you dont want to see a delay in the election, but then it looks like the process of these mailin ballots is going to continue well, we have many court cases, john with. We have one thats been filed for a while now in western pennsylvania, as an example. Im just wondering we give tremendous examples, numbers of examples of all the fraud and all of the things that have take taken place with respt to ma just wondering, is the net effect of what you tweeted this morning and what youre talking about now to cast doubt on the results of well, its had an interesting impact. I didnt know it was going to bo the impact it had. What people are now looking at is am iut right, but not me, are all these stories right about the fact that these elections will be fraudulent, theyll be fakes, theyll be rigged. And everyones looking at it. And a lot of people are saying, you know, that probably will happen. Please, jennifer. But you break the log jam in congress [inaudible] what do you plan toncap put on e table tonight . Its a great question. I cant tell you though because that wouldnt be very smart from a negotiating standpoint. But well be putting certain things on thee table. We want to get money on the we want to get money to people, its not their fault what happened. The fact people dont like sayingng it, they know its tru, its chinas fault, okay . Its not their fault. Its nots the workers who lost their job, its chinas fault. And thatsat the way it is. Mr. President , yesterday [inaudible]] the governor of oregon to remove federal officers [inaudible] noticeably absent, are you confident, sir, that the state [inaudible] will be able to quell the protests in portland, and if the violence does continue, would you reconsider so our people, Homeland Security is have done a fantastic job. They went to oregon a little more than a week ago. The place was a mess. The city, portland, was just a disaster. You see it, and a lot of people werent reporting it right. They tried to pretend it was a protest as opposed to anarchists and agitators. You understand what im saying. Its a mess. They went there a short while ago, and they saved a federal courthouse that cost hundreds of millions of dollars, and they put a ring around the courthouse, and they saved it. But the group thats there is basically meant to be save buildings, and they were very strong, very powerful, and they didnt come out too often out of this cocoon in order to save these very expensive, value basketball psychologically important buildings, right . Like courthouses. The governor and the mayor, weve been dealing with them, and we think they dont know what theyre doing. Because this should not have been going on for 60 days. Its not our job, unless in case of emergency which i consider now to be an emergency, its not our job to go in and clean out the cities. Thats supposed to be done by local Law Enforcement are. Yesterday the governor worked a deal where theyll do it, theyll stand by, theyll do it, and thats good. She didnt report it that way. What she reported was totally different. She said i think trump wants to take over the country. Its crazy. So what happened is our people are staying this to see whether can do it today and tomorrow. And if they dont do it, we will send in the national guard, and well take care of it. Were telling right now these protesters and many should be arrested. Because these are professional agitators, these are professional anarchists. These are people that hate our country. Were telling them right now that were coming in very soon, the national guard. A lot of people, a lot of very tough people. And these are not just people that have to go to the courthouse and save it, these are people that are allowed to go forward and do what they have to do. And ies think that makes the mayorss job and the job a lot easier. So theyre working today and probably tomorrow to clean out this beehive of terrorists. And if they do it, im going to be very happy. Slowly we can start to leave the city. If they dont do it, well be sending in the national guard. Please. Given whats happening with Major League Baseball and now today, the rutgers football tea, how can you assure people that schools will be safe to reopen . So can you assure anybody of anything . T i do say again, young people are almost immune to this disease. The younger the better. I guess theyre stronger. Theyre stronger. They haver. A stronger immune system. Its an incredible thing. Nobodys ever seen this before. Various types of flu will hurt young people more than older people. But young people are almost immune. If you. Look at the percentage, its a tiny percent of 1 . Its a tiny percent of 1 . So we have to have our schools open. We have to protect our teachers. We have to protect our elderly, but we do have to have our schools open. [inaudible conversations] mr. President . Yeah, please, go ahead. Mr. President , a week ago you said youre in the process of developing a strategy thats going to be very powerful involving the coronavirus. Where is that strategy . Oh, i think youre seeing it, and i think you will see it x. One of the things that weve fdone that were get it hasnt been utilized yet, but were all set to march when it comes to the vaccine. We have great therapeutics that aree testing very well, if we haveed great vaccines from up e credible companies, johnson and johnson and pfizer and merck, and all of these great companies, and theyre doing very well. Expect Delivery System is all set. Logistically, we have a general thats all he does is deliver things, whether its soldiers or other items. I think you going to see something thats going to be spectacular. Thee fda has approved things ata rate thats a tiny fraction of what it would take during another administration, lets say. We are way ahead on vaccines, way ahead on therapeutics, and when we have it, were all set up with our platforms to deliver themem very, very quickly. The vaccines are doing well, the therapeutics are doing well, and were all set to deliver them as soon as we have them x thats going toer to be very soon. Thank you very much. [inaudible conversations] President Trump just wrapping a News Conference covering topics from the coronavirus to the violence in portland and amid the blowback for the president asking if the u. S. Should delay the election over the potential for mailin voter fraud. That, of course, rattling the markets and politicians on both sides of the aisle today. That blowback pebbly overshadowing potentially overshadowing the coree you isse that, yes, there has been problems with mailin ballots in the past. Good evening, im Jackie Deangelis in for Elizabeth Macdonald tonight, this is the evening edit. We are going the welcome former acting attorneyto general matthw whitaker. Matthew, you were listening. I want to get your reaction to that start ising with this notion is, is it possible for the president to at least float this idea . Congress would have to make the ultimate decision if we were going to delay the election, but hes sort of putting it out there as raw meat. Yeah. And its good to be with you tonight, jackie. What i know about this issue is that the president continues to be concerned and should be concernedd about what is happening in some states where they are sending out voter ballots without people requesting those ballots. And we saw this in the primary in nevada where the state of nevada sent a ballot to every registered voter. Many people had moved, and these ballotsts piled up in mailboxesn apartment buildings especially. Think these are the concerns, if we just wholesale send out voting ballots, it could be rife with fraud, and we could not maybe be able to trust the results. Jackie and that would be a difficult position to be in because you might not get results for several months, as he mentioned here tonight, and there would be a lot of confusion. It certainly might make the situation worse. Joe bideno said in the past, he said it to donors, the president s going to do anything he can do here to try to cause problems or at least cast some doubt on this election. So youre going to have one side of the aisle saying that. Yeah, but you also joe biden also is trying to find any way to get his base enthusiastic about his candidacy, and i think thats the big challenge in painting the president as the bogeyman instead of addressing jet mate concerns legitimate concerns about voter fraud. And we can look again in other places. They still havent counted all the absentee votes in, i think, at least one congressional seat in newal york. I mean, theres a lot of examples where this, you know, an idea that somehow we send ballots to everyone or everyone votes byot mail could cause complete and utter chaos in our Voting System v in the fall. Jackie and its n not just potentially what could happen here. He a. G. Bill barr has floated the idea that if you have mailin ballots on a mass scale, you potentially could be leaving the election open to, you know, intrusion from other countries. And this is a problem that weve been focused on for quite some time. No, youre right. And bill barr has spoke about this at his hearing recently, and fbi director chris wray recently said that china is an ascendant threat to our elections x certainly they have the capabilities to reproduce absentee ballots and get those mailed in. I mean, i think theres a lot of questions that many of the state, secretaries of state expect local voting and the iclocal voting officials need to answer as to how theyre going to protect the ballot from not only voter fraud, but also foreign interference. Jack one more question on this nbefore we move on, you had jery nadler tweeting today the president doesnt have the authority to do this, you had representative zoe lofgren from california saying americans have voted in the civil war, in the shadow of world wars, the great depression, we will vote this november. Your thoughts. S. Yeah, i fully expect that e election will be in november and that a lot of people, including myself, will go to their voting location and vote. I mean, i think that it is, it is expect president said is legitimate absentee voting is, theres no problem with that. It is this idea of sort of a complete mailin vote where people are sent ballots, often times without requesting them as you saw in nevada in the primary. I think thats what hes concerned about, and i think there should be a lot of concern about that. Jackie all right, with the tie i have left with you, i want to switch gears. Seattle activists bring protests to officials homes like here in new york the nypd commissioner, dermot shea, and democratic mayor calling for federal Law Enforcement to clear out of their cities even as the riots are escalating. Watch this. People to come out and start taking people off the streets, shovingm them into unmarked vehicles, failingng to identify themselves. This is not how things are done in america. This is more like the police state in terms of the tactics. They werent wanted here, we didnt invite them here. We dont need the help that the president s offering and, in fact, i i think the president s actions have directly escalated and are responsible for what happened. These are also, as we understand it, not what weve i seen on the streets of portland, rye gotclad riotclad federal officers who are playing police in the streets. If there was anything that happened like that, we would be making sure that we did Everything Possible to stop that in its tracks. Jackie okay. So theyrere saying they dont need the help, but this reality they do need the help because they dont have the situation under control. And, actually, acting Homeland Security secretary chad wolf said is, with respect to portland, the federal f authorities are not going to leave until we are sure the local authorities can handle this. Yeah, and thats the reason the federal assets are in portland right now, because the local police have been unwilling to, you know, control this crowd and make sure that it does assemble peaceably and doesnt try to take over the courthouse and burn it to the ground, as some of them have said. I mean, i think this is one of sthe things, the people of portland, the people of seattle, the people across the country want law and order. They want to be safe in their own homes and communities, and they dont want violent protesters and mobs of people overrunning public buildings. I think its common sense. We see with our own eyes whats happening in some of these cities, and these politicians are somehow playing to a fringe wing of their party for some reason,om i guess because its n election year. You know, fundamentally, i think people want peace and security and freedom, and those are the tenants that our tenets that our country was founded on, and thats what thehe president s trying to restore in our communities. Jackie donald trump jr. Wrote a column talking about the fact that joe biden wouldnt reduce rioting and crime, and when you see the pictures of how democraticic mayors are handling things in their city, you have to think to yourself, maybe hes right . Youre right. Bill barr during that hearing, one on the left condemned the major violence were seeing in our cities or tried to come up with a solution to solve it. Jackie matthew whitaker, thank you so much. Thank you, jackie, good to be with you.
