Even though the overall market did not. Crazy day. Welcome, everybody. Im neil cavuto, and this is your world. We are following Quick Development right now with two president ial ken dento to candi. Front and center today, peter doocy, traveling with the former Vice President. He joins us from minnesota. Peter. Neil, good afternoon. Bidens event is not open to the public, but as you can see, a few dozen Trump Supporters came to give him a welcome, and there are about two dozen biden supporters you with megaphones and flags as well. Democratic nominees inside a Union Trading facility right now. We just wrapped up a tour of this place, and we expect in a minute to hear remarks from him about jobs and the economy. The leader of the democratic ticket is here in the first place, hoping to stop minnesota from trending towards a trump, as some recent Election Results and poles have been improving. He is also here to tell minnesota voters they can go vote for him starting today. Last night, biden went so far is to blame trump for every single american covid death, but the very normally cautious biden was not wearing a mask. Very few of them were Wearing Masks either, and social distancing was not observed, as seen and heard here. When i got back to the room this location where biden is today is about two and a half hours from minneapolis, which was of course ravaged by riots in destructive looting after george floyd died in police custody, and is about two and a half hours and the other direction from where President Trump is going to sleep later on this evening. This whole entire area was hit hard by layoffs over the past several decades. The big issue for voters that both sides are trying to reach here is the mining industry. Neil. Neil all right, peter doocy. Thank you very, very much. Now to the president who made some news this afternoon. April of next year. The release of a vaccine, but thats every american would be able to have that by at least then. April of next year. John roberts following all of these fastmoving developments as the president is getting ready to go to minnesota himself. I can hear the helicopter still on the south lawn. He might be stopping to take questions, but he did to questions in the Briefing Room for a while. One of the things he came out and said it was contrary to what is cdc director told congress the other day that a vaccine likely wouldnt be available until sometime in the summer, the president and the doctor, his coronavirus advisor so that there will be enough doses for every member of the American Public who wants it by april and that they will begin inoculating people at high risk and people on the front lines by the end of the year. The president also knocking joe biden for continuing to cast doubt on a vaccine. Biden saying that he believes dr. Fauci. He believed scientist, but he does not believe the president. The president also announcing today a huge monetary award to the island nation of puerto rico. Some 13 billion to rebuild the electrical infrastructure there as well as improve the education system. This after the president had repeatedly said that the politicians in puerto rico were corrupt and it has already received more than enough federal money, and the president slammed joe biden as an enemy of puerto rico. Listen here. Whether it was president obama or Vice President biden, they were a disaster for puerto rico. A disaster. And what we are doing and what we have done, but what we are doing is something that will be fantastic for many years in the future. Bringing back the pharmaceutical industry, manufacturing and puerto rico is what they have wanted for years, so we are doing that. In addition to the 13 billion. What the president is talking about there is a bill that president clinton signed back in 1996 that would remove a section of the tax code which gave favorable tax breaks to u. S. Companies operating in puerto rico. Many of those companies were pharmaceutical companies. They all left, and they went to china, so the president trying to bring them back. The president also going off again on unsolicited mail and voting. Not applications for absentee aboubalance, but this mass mailg of ballots to people who are on registered voter rolls. This is going to be the scam of all time, and hopefully the federal judges, all respected, all highly respected, hopefully they will be able to see this clearly and stop it. What the president was talking about there is legal challenges that are being launched in states that are sending out these unsolicited ballots, and a lot of them already going out, so we will see what the court action brings, but the president may be on the losing side of this. We will see. Neil john roberts, thank you very, very much. We do understand he has been taking some questions. On his way to minnesota tonight, so when that comes into is there, we will play that back to you. Also planning to hear from joe biden, who will also be talking to reporters. Make some statements while he is out in minnesota. Lets see if we can get a read on this. G. O. P. Strategist. From the washington examiner, jan, its no big surprise that minnesota is firm ground here. Republicans think they have a shot at it. It was close four years ago. A little bit wider, depending on the poll right now. Are democrats worried about hanging onto minnesota . They shouldnt be. The people of minnesota know what the rest of the country does. Under trump, the country is more divided than it has ever been, and particularly in minneapolis, weve seen that unfold on its streets. Theres more division, and theres more chaos, more angst and tension. I think specifically speaking to the women of minnesota, they are probably reconsidering some of their behaviors that they held so closely to in the voting booths in previous elections, and they are likely starting to break rank with what i call legacy or inherited both and are reconsidering what it is that they want for this country, moving forward. Neil all right, ill put you down as i may be then, on the president. How do we get to this notion that the pending on minnesota may or may not be in play, how much does this talk of a vaccine influence this race . Not in minnesota, but joe biden was criticizing the president of our seemingly trying to speed a vaccine for political purposes. The president making the point that there is Due Diligence here. Medical expertise. It is not going to be secondguessed by political pressures or matters, but you make sure that the president now outlining the possibility of having a vaccine in everyones hands and available to all americans by april of next year. Your thoughts on that . Well, i think it would show that President Trump did a very good job in getting a vaccine out in record time, and its the fda, so President Trump cant do anything about the speed of it, other than to put as much money behind it and as much force behind it as he can, which is what hes done, but he can control the data, so if we get a vaccine here in october, which is he is thinking we may get, i think thats going to be a key thing for voters. President trump did a decent job with the virus. Yes, we had people that lost their lives, but that was out of his control. That was china. He blunts the flights coming in from china as early as anyone could, and is not his fault that there were people that died, so hes turning the corner on that. But as far as minnesota goes, i find it very interesting that we are talking about minnesota 46 days out. We would have never thought about that in the past with the republicans. The Republican Party under trump has really become the party of bluecollar workers. Thats who they look to now, and thats why you are seeing a swing in these states. Look at what joe biden did. In december of last year, he told minors they need to learn to code. Thats how theyre going to change their lives. They can mine anymore. What is he going to say to bloggers and miners and minnesota . Neil i do want to go to joe biden and as i can, but i want to give you an opportunity, looking at this, how much this vaccine thats virus issue will dominate this entire race. Sure. I think thats a vaccine debate is going to really take center hold in this election, especially in october. I know that President Trump would love to see an announcement of a vaccine before the election. That is something that joe biden is preemptively expecting, which is why he has called on some transparency measures. He has been skeptical about whether a vaccine that trump announces will follow all of the scientific, necessary thresholds in order for it to be safe, so i think that because joe biden is already expecting this, trump it might run the risk of the vaccine being so politicized, that it might work against him if he rushes it, but on the other hand, i know that a lot of americans really like to see the vaccine come out, and joe biden runs the risk of looking antivaccine, which could look bad in the minds of voters as well. Spew one before that, a little bit here, im sure this was not the former Vice President s intention, but by raising doubts about an early vaccine, couldnt he harm himself and those who are now leery of taking a vaccine if it were to come out early, and it would boomerang on him. It would look like he was so skeptical about it, that even though he says he believes science, the doctors, he doesnt trust the president , vaccine, if it were to come out this year, he looked antivaccine, wouldnt he . Sure. He has laid out a criteria of what he is looking for with a vaccine, so he is trying to keep it focused on science, but yes, it is a question that he has faced multiple times already from the press, saying are you worried about this . Because the risk risky as it is people take the vaccine, then its not going to be effective in the wider community. So there is the risk for him there. He is saying if it comes out that it passes all his criteria and it safe, that he would take it the next day, but thats going to be a very careful line, specially send some polls have shown that both republicans and democrats, fewer of them would take a vaccine now then a couple months ago, the last time the question was asked, i believe, which is a disturbing trend. Perhaps a sign of the vaccine issue becoming so politicized, which is endangering Public Safety and health as a whole. Neil you know, jenna, when you look at expectations of the debate coming up, a lot of people have been advising the president to go slow or at least ease up on the attacks about joe biden, that hes out of it, that hes old mr. Magoo. Sometimes i think that he just has to show up and not slobber on himself, and he is won. Is there a sense here that expectations have turned so low for joe biden as a result of these attacks, that he wins by surviving . Im not sure that i would say that he wins by surviving. Theres definitely some people in the middle clearly the country is very polarized right now. I dont believe theres a tremendous amount of swing voters, but i think that there are some people stuck in the middle who are particularly ambivalent about the whole political process and are unclear whether or not they are going to show about the voting booth in general. I think they are just looking for somebody to raise their hand and saying im going to surround myself with a really smart people and work to bring this country back. He could ultimately push them to the left, but i dont know if it is just about whether or not he can show up and form a sentence. I think, rightfully so, the g. O. P. Strategists are encouraging trump to stop attacking people because its just not a nice thing to do. Neil well, it is possible. I want to thank you very, very much. I want to bring your attention to the very rough day for the major market averages. It is well into correction territory right now. The big guys who got us here, apples, microsoft, they are sort of taking a backseat to some of these. That have emerged. Big debuts this week, so for them, it has been a very good week. That became a 70 billion sensation overnight, but they are the exception, and right now with the nasdaq today, that Technology Sort of the grandpa stocks, if you will. They are taking a backseat to these little guys who started and got a lot richer. Just so you know, and ive been keeping tabs on it, but about 165 days of added market value. This week. We will have a lot more, looking at it next. My husband was kidnapped. This is terrorism were not afraid to die. Thats why were gonna win. Im not afraid either. Infidel. Rated r. To deliver your packages. And the peace of mind of knowing that important things like your prescriptions, and ballots, are on their way. Every day, all across america, well keep delivering for you. On day one well implement the National Strategy ive been laying out since march. Well develop and deploy rapid tests with results available immediately. Well make the medical supplies we will develop and apply rapid test with results available immediately. Well make the medical supplis and protective equipment that our country needs. We will make them here in america. We will have a National Mandate to wear masks, not as a burden but as a patriotic duty to protect one another. In short, we will do what we should have done from the very beginning. Our current president has failed in his most basic duty to the nation. Hes failed to protect america. And my fello americans, that is unforgivable. As president , i will make you a promise. I will protect america. I will defend us from every attack. Always. Without exception. Every time. Im joe biden. Neil all right. Back to this event right now for joe biden. Amy klobuchar, the minnesota senator, has been sort of teeing him up, but we will hear from the former Vice President shortly. Beautiful state of louisiana, senator, so much to talk about, including this battle for minnesota. Nancy pelosi hinted today that a deal could be had. Just republicans have to come up with a little bit more on something. Anything. Where are you on this . I am pretty happy with the republican bill. The republicans agreed to it a week before last. Its temporary. Its targeted. It covers all the bases. It covers about 10 of what Speaker Pelosi wants to spend. Now, i think thats what the republicans will vote for. Neil i guess the problem, i dont know how you feel. One and threequarter trillion area. The president reportedly is more interested better or bigger bill. How do you feel about that . In terms of what Speaker Pelosi and senator schumer care about, i am convinced about the priority number one, number two, number three is bailing out new york and california. I dont want to do anything to hurt state governments or our cities. I think the priorities of most republicans, people in small business. And if the president agrees to a plan, led by the bailout of new york and california, thats the president s decision. But its going to split the republicans and the senate. It is neil watching very closely. Senator, sorry to pounce on you there. The former Vice President is speaking. Also, the president of the United States talking to reporters as we speak from the south lawn of the white house before going off to minnesota himself. Now, joe biden. I think you for the job youre doing, and im counting on it continuing for another six years. You know, i know you are both fighting aroundtheclock to take care of minnesotans who are battling these crazies today. Everything from covid tell unemployment to a country that is divided, being divided along racial lines. We have institutional racism. A whole range of things. And people in minnesota know that they have two of the best senators in the country on their side. Thank you so much for that introduction. Thanks for showing me around today. This Incredible Program here at the training center. What a lot of people dont know if they are not involved with labor is apprenticeship programs not only change the best workers in the world im not being facetious. Thats a fact. They get paid while they are doing it. They are getting paid while they are doing it. And thats why these Union Apprenticeship programs are so, so critically important they stay this way. It matters. People can still make it while they are learning a trade. The trader that is going to put them in Good Standing the rest of their lives. It was great to see some of the practical handson experience that apprentices here receive, and while, as i said, erni itst quieter here than usual because of the covid19 restrictions, but the pride of these workers who are learning the skills and will carry them throughout their careers, is still unmistakable. My father, and i apologize for repeating this, but it warrants saying every time. My dad use to have an expression. He said a job is about a lot more than a paycheck. Its about your dignity. Its about respect. It is about your place in the community. Its about being able to look your kid in the eye and say honey, its going to be okay, and mean it. Thats a lesson ive never forgotten. Its the way i grew up, surrounded by hardworking families in scranton, pennsylvania. A lot of steelworkers in delaware. All those jobs are gone now. You know, and thats what i saw here at this training center. Dedicated women and men investing in their dignity. There dignity. Here in the iron range, we can see the resilience in the group of communities that built america. Fortified by the strength of union power, worker power, i think i was saying to you that you now, my dad had another expression. The only way to deal with an abuse of power is with power. Union power. Keep the barbarians of the other side of the gate, making sure that people can make a decent living. Here, like anywhere else, times are hard. Unemployment is way up due to the pandemic. Fewer workers can be on the job at one time in order to abide by social distancing rules. The Economic Outlook for next year including the building trades, more uncertain than it need to be. Here in minnesota and all across the country, there are plenty of folks who are hurting. Theyre worried about making their next mortgage payment, keeping their rent payments in check. They see the people at the t
