FOXNEWSW Outnumbered Overtime With Harris Faulkner August 21, 2020

Donald j. Trump. A back and forth and that speech, more than an hour long. We covered all of it for you here on fox news. This is outnumbered overtime. Coming up, the rnc chairwoman, ronna mcdaniel. A lot to get to this hour. Of course, the big speech you just saw. Two conservative group in virginia, after bidens speech accepting the democratic nomination for president last night, when he went after President Trump what he called his failures. Here is the president , in just the last hour, hitting back. The democrats held the darkest, and greece, and gloomiest convention in history. They spent four Straight Days attacking america, as racist, and horrible country, that must be redeemed. Where joe biden sees american darkness, i see american greatness. Harris the president s comments coming in response to this, from joe biden. The current president s american darkness for much too long. Too much anger, too much fear, too much division. Its time for us, for we the people, to come together. Make no mistake, united, we can and will overcome this season of darkness in america. Harris kristin fishers life at the white house. Kristin, that was remarkable, how many points the president went into in front of that conservative group. Yeah, he really spent the first few minutes of that speech responding to joe bidens big address last night. President trump says it is not so much what joe biden said last night, it is what he did not say. He didnt talk about Law Enforcement. He didnt talk about bringing safety to democratrun cities that are totally out of control, and they have no clue. China was never mentioned it any way, shape, or form. China will own our country if he gets elected. They will own our country. We are not going to let that happen. [applause] now, the other big take away from President Trump, in terms of how he is reacting to the final night of the dnc, we are seeing an evolution of sorts from President Trump excuse me, i believe you have a better, more important guest than me. Harris, im going to toss it back to you. Harris all right, kristin fisher. Thank you very much. Meanwhile, Chris Wallace calling biden speech a game changer in this race. Watch this, and then well get to our guest. I thought it was an enormously effective speech. Remember, donald trump has been talking for months about joe biden as mentally soft. I guess he was reading from a teleprompter and a prepared speech, but i thought he blew a hole, a big hole, in that characterization. Donald trump is going to have to run against a candidate, not a caricature. Harris i want to bring in now ronna mcdaniel, Republican National committee chairman. Respect and love to kristin fisher, but really wanted to get to you right away. I was taking notes for the better part of an hour there, the president kicked off some accomplishments, and they were. Headed up the Republican National committee now, it was the president s response to joe biden what you expected to see . I think the Democrat Convention was a masterpiece in fiction. They got hollywood screenwriters and actresses to paint a picture of america that wasnt real, and they used rhetoric, but they didnt talk about policy. You saw the president today layout on issue after issue the things he has accomplished in the white house on foreign policy. He was the one, when syria crossed that redline, he took action. He was the one who took out soleimani. He is the one who has taken on isis. Issue after issue. He is the one who cut taxes to the lowest in Employment Level for africanamericans and hispanics and asianamericans. Joe biden went on tv and spewed fiction, and a really dark picture of america, based on a pandemic. That is something that should be bringing us all together, united, helping the president does his best. As a democrat after democrat try and politicize a time of crisis in our country was really shameful, and i think the president is looking forward to his rebuttal. Harris im going to ask my team, ronna please be patient with us, because we are turning all this around, all the material from the president. The president said, echoing what you just said, where biden sees american darkness, i see greatness. If we have that, lets roll that, guys. If we do, they will. Its time to reject the anger and the hate of the democrat party. We have the biggest election coming up of our lifetime. The biggest part of last night speech is what joe biden didnt talk about. He didnt talk about Law Enforcement. He didnt talk about bringing safety to democratrun cities that are totally out of control, and they have no clue. China was never mentioned in any way, shape, or form. China will own our country if he gets elected. Harris ronna, did the president managed to kind of hit back in the same style that joe biden did last night . Joe biden was not overly animated, and by some reports, one of the better speeches he has given publicly. Did the president feel maybe the necessity to come back . How did he do . I think the president did a great speech today, and i think you will continue to see and build upon that. I think the president , since the fourth of july, being in front of mount rushmore, has really celebrated the greatness of america. As youve seen democrats consistently talk about how they need to transform this country, how it is not the Great America we know, not speaking out as cities are being rioted and looted, not speaking out when people are being attacked, like we saw this week in portland. Joe biden has been silent as our country has been under siege in these democratrun cities, and the president is saying, we live in the greatest nation on earth. We should celebrate that. We dont get transform it, we need to work together, unite, to continue to see that opportunity for every american. Joe biden isnt giving a hopeful vision. Everything about him is grim and dim, and the president is completely aspirational. Harris real quickly and i do want to do the rnc lookahead for next week, because i understand the president is somebody will see a lot of during that process. But i want to talk about schools reopening, covid19, and with the message there will be coming from the president. If, in fact, you know. With all those accomplishments he listed, and didnt catch and release of illegals in america, so on and so forth, that sort of topdown look at where we are, dealing with five plus million cases of coronavirus right now, was not something we got from President Trump. That was something that we got from joe biden last night, him specifically hitting those issues. Well, youll hear the president talk about that next week, as well. We know that, because of his Decisive Action shutting off travel from china and europe, ramping up testing with partnerships with private entities, the u. S. Has passed any country in terms of our testing, and the president is saying, we need to Balance Health and safety, do the things im saying, wear masks, social distance, use common sense to me to get this virus, but we also have to open our economy and open our schools. Joe biden and the democrats have a very different stance. It is that everything needs to be shut down forever, we cant open up, and thats just not tenable. You will hear about that more next week. Harris just to further this point, then we will move on. When you see the cases going up in areas where they are now testing children, and its that Positivity Rate that is not where we wanted to be, when you look at georgia and some other areas that have had to go virtual, do you envision the president telling the nation next week exactly what we need to do at this point that fits the vision you just laid out . More specifically than has been so far. Yeah, i dont know if that will happen during the convention. The president is obviously giving Daily Briefings. It is a challenge for a lot of families right now, and im in this situation, too. Our kids are going to school virtually, and you have two coparents that work. Theres a lot of angst out there, and its being decided at the state level, and some cases the local level. The president said if youre in a hot spot youll take different measures than in a rural area. It shouldnt be a onesizefitsall approach. The democrats have a one country approach. Nothing can be open, and they are not looking at it even down to the county level. The president is doing it exactly the right way. Harris i didnt know if maybe there was a special schools night, that sort of thing. Real quickly, enumerate the highlights you think people need to watch for. The main thing is going to be its going to be about real people. It wont be about hollywood, which we saw so much yesterday. The actors from hollywood who arent dealing with this crisis at the same level. Im sorry, theyre not at the same level as average americans. My kids go to public school. My guess is many of their kids dont. These are things that real americans are dealing with, and harris in all fairness, the president s doesnt, either. But okay. My kids go to school in hollywood is telling us how to live our lives. They started that convention that way, and this is about real people. How this administration and their policies have made lives better, and how people are looking forward to the next four years, and with the vision is for the next four years. This is about america, not about hollywood. Excuse me . Harris will we see the president at the convention every day . Yes, you will tell you when, because everybody is got to tune in. Harris you are teasing us now me get it. Its tv, Harris Harris [laughs] i know. Youd think id know. Ronna mcdaniel, chairwoman of the rnc. Thank you very much. Good to see you today. Thank you. Harris rolling blackouts are plaguing california, along with Deadly Wildfires and a very dangerous heat wave. Now californias Democratic Leaders are facing criticism over the management of the states power grid. Plus, the postmaster general was under heavy scrutiny today in front of Senate Lawmakers as they questioned him on changes to the Postal Service ahead of the election. What he told congress, and what comes next in the battle over universal mailin voting. Keep watching. I want to ensure this committee and the American Public that the Postal Service is fully capable and committed to delivering the nations election mail securely and on time. I like Liberty Mutual. They get that no two people are alike and customize your Car Insurance so you only pay for what you need. What do you think . I dont see it. Only pay for what you need. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Simon pagenaud takes the lead at the indy 500 coming to the green flag, racing at daytona. Theyre off. In the kentucky derby. Rory mcllroy is a two time champion at east lake. He scores stanley cup champions touchdown only mahomes. The big events are back and xfinity is your home for the return of live sports. Moving forward, having negative impact on the election, there is no changes in any policies with regard to election for the 220 election. I promise you, we are not making any changes until after the election. Harris postmaster general louis dejoy. He and the Trump Administration are facing accusations of sabotaging the u. S. Postal service ahead of the november election. Dejoy pushed back, calling those claims a false narrative. Tomorrow, house lawmakers will vote on that u. S. Postal Service Funding before getting their chance to question dejoy on monday. And just the past hour, we watched the president again saying that widespread universal mail and voting he made that distinction, he tried to explain to the audience he was talking with that thats what he meant, and that it would lead to fraud, according to him. Watch. In nevada, harvesting is allowed. So they will go all over the world and get people to sign them. Hey, used to be here. They will harvest them and dropped thousands of them on a table just before the election. Harris Congressional Correspondent chad pergram is live on capitol hill. Hey there. First of all, there is no evidence of that happening in nevada with the vote harvesting. Thats not legal here. During the hearing today, louis dejoy told senators he thought that voting by mail was okay. He made that perfectly clear. He did say voters should try and get their ballots in early. You have a lot of senators concerned about slowdowns in service. Lets start with gary peters of michigan. Theyve written to me about skipping doses of a medication, and their Small Businesses losing customers or having to lay off employees. All because of the changes that youve directed. Dejoy testified it was his sacred duty to make your votes could cast ballots by mail. He didnt anticipate any issues this fall. Dejoy said the Postal Service has enough money to get through the election. Still, the house of representatives votes on a bill to infuse the service with 25 billion. The Governmental Affairs committee chair, ron johnson, accused democrats of engineering a campaign issue. Looking to separate the fact from the fiction, and theres a lot of false narratives being ginned up by democrats on the left or right now. During the hearing, dejoy indicated the Postal Service is going to send out a letter to all households indicating how they can go about voting by mail. Kind of explaining the process here. If they did that, that would be 161 million extra pieces of mail infuse into the bloodstream. Harris . Harris thats a lot. We heard a lot of promises from the postmaster general about november, and now we will hopefully see what happens next in terms of funding for it. He said he needs money for the covid restrictions, so on and so forth, that they are reacting to. Chad pergram, thank you very much. I want to bring in republican, rissman mark green of tennessee, who will get a chance to question the postmaster general dejoy when he appears before the House Oversight committee, and thats on monday. Good to see you today. I want to start with kind of where you want to see this go. We do have a vote on funding from the house tomorrow. What do you think we will see on monday that was different from what we saw today . I think the goal for us is to make sure the truth gets out there, and that we refute some of these accusations from the left. You look at the need for cash, that question, during the covid crisis theyve made an extra 2. 8 billion in package deliveries and have enough cash on hand to operate through august of next year. So much so that the 10 billion loan in the cares act isnt even needed until next fall. This assertion that weve got to quickly get them cash to set up a Voting System for elections in november, it is just a false narrative. I want to just make sure we are correcting the record. Harris so, let me follow up on that. Because the record didnt have before it, today, that i knew about, and actual ask for cash from the postmaster general. He said they need that funding to reimburse for over all the covid things theyve had to reply to. No other business has kept up their load of what theyve needed to do, or agency, the way they have without an infusion of cash. Can they get through november . He said, we are going to do our job, so of course. But does he need that cash reimbursement . The answer is yes. According to us, the information we are getting, they have enough cash on hand for their operational cash flow. Just looking at their cash flow statement, to function until august of 2021. This 25 they already have a loan of 10 billion that they havent even asked for. Im not sure that theyve got to have money to make the november elections be pulled off. Harris he just said reimbursement for covid. Lets move on. Last night President Trump told sean hannity he would send Law Enforcement to polling places to prevent fraud. Watch. We are going to have everything. Were going to have sheriffs, we are going to have Law Enforcement, we are going to have hopefully u. S. Attorneys, and we are going to have everybody. Attorney generals. Harris what is your reaction to that . I think we absolutely have to be prepared to ensure that every citizen gets an opportunity to vote. In philadelphia, a few years ago, there were people blocking polling stations. That shouldnt happen. When you add in the layer of tension that we have this year, which, by the way, youve done a fantastic job reporting on, that could create some problems for the election situation. So yeah, weve got to have Law Enforcement standing by ready to go to make sure people have access to the polling station. I support that. Harris one of the things the president has said is, if you can do other certain activities, you should be able to vote in person. So much a part of what they are. It could include people wearing masks. The science shows that, do you think the president should speak on that issue . Will they also be tasked with making sure those places are covid safe . I dont think we need sincerely nee need to send additional harris thats where the violence has broken out, like in retail. Thats what im asking, when you talk about safety. I dont think its necessary just for that, but i think the violence needs to be prevented. They need to do intelligence, get inside these organizations, particularly like antifa, that are setting up these anarchisttype riots. That kind of stuff. They need to be doing that right now. Harris do we know thats happening at polling places . Is there any until the public should know . Theres been none to date. None so far, at least. A lot of primaries have happen, we had one here in tennessee. There were no issues related either to the covid, people wear their masks, but theres been no violence at
