MSNBCW MSNBC Live With Kendis Gibson And Lindsey Reiser November 22, 2020

Their case. Meantime, covid19 is relentlessly spreading. Right now the u. S. With the most infections in the world. And the onset in another wave up to thanksgiving. Passing the conservative threshold rate of 3 . We will talk to the nosh Health Commissioner next. Good morning, its sunday. Could new york city be days away from another shutdown of restaurants and gyms . So far no schools and very few people out at this hour at time square. We have the latest correspondents with the developments this hour. Josh jimenez in washington, d. C. Now. What exactly happened overnight . What is the purpose of the presss latest gambit, josh. The president seemed determined to show to his supporters he is still in his fight, hes not giving up any challenges nor conceding loss to president elect biden in this election. The latest blow to the president s legal course coming in pennsylvania with this judge tossing out this case that had to do with how various counties in pennsylvania handled ballots that were mailed in that might have needed some type of additional verification that needed issue and whether certain counties gave an opportunities for voters to correct those errors in an process called curing and if other offices that had more votes for President Trump did not do so. The judge there not only saying the trump failed to come to court with the proper evidence but warning an argument that all 7 million or so ballots in pennsylvania should be thrown out as a result was something that was particularly egregious. Now we are seeing the states republican senator pat toomey arguing after this Court Decision that the president has essentially exhausted his Legal Options and should move on and recognize president elect joe bidens victory in this election. All of this coming, kendis, as the president is trying to lay the groundwork as you pointed out legislatures should usurp the will of the voters by giving the votes to President Trump, something that is dangerous and most likely unlegal. This is quite unbelievable the actions this president is taking, especially in the last 24 hours. You had the president partially taking part in the g20 summit possibly his last appearance this year. How did it go . Its not hard to see the president does not see a value with these type of World Leaders and he showed that lack of interest yesterday as he briefly appeared in the morning in the opening session but was using that time to fire off tweets about Election Fraud he was basically claiming in georgia and elsewhere. As the session moved on to a breakout session specifically focused on covid19 response, the president was already off at his golf course in virginia, kendis. That summit continues virtually. Its being held in saudi arabia. And we will hear from ali vitali soon how the Biden Administration is going ahead without cooperation from the trump administration. Schools this week closed in new york much to parents dismay and will stay closed through the weekend. Will Indoor Dining be next . Businesses are getting creative, bought igloos to protect customers and keep them warm. Unfortunately, mayor de blasio said its not a question of if but when. He said its likely to happen within the next week or two. Dr. Fauci and other experts blame the sky individual rise on covid fatigue, and Colder Weather forcing people indoors where the virus is more easily spread. That theres a color coded micro cluster here. It essentially targets spikes on a blockbyblock basis by destine nating th designating them orange or red zones. This is a number to watch. If this hits 3 according to state data, the area will likely enter the orange zone, which will shut Indoor Dining. Restaurants are on high alert as they await the decision on a shutdown. The fact is that in the winter, were going to suffer serious damage. If its too cold or snowing, we cannot be open during those days. So we are going to suffer losses but the point is to try to minimize the losses. I think it makes sense for restaurants. It does make sense for the restaurant to be closed at least indoor for a certain period of time at least. Am i happy about it . Of course im not happy about it. Are we going to suffer business wise . Yes, we are. But we have to deal with it. Other orange zone regulations include closing gyms, nail salons, spas, houses of worship will only have a max of 25 people and outdoor gatherings will have to be limited to ten people. Joining us right now to discuss is dr. Dave chachi, new york administrator of health. Thank you for being with us at such a busy time. What do you say to parents who dont understand why schools are closed but Indoor Dining is still allowed . I start from a place of empathy. I certainly understand that as a parent myself, actually, as someone whose spouse is an educator in the Public School system, and were just entering into such a challenging period. When i look at the trajectory of cases, when i look at whats happening with respect to infections and hospitalizations and the rest of the country, and we really have to take the precautions that entails some difficult choices about what needs to be done. Specifically around schools, you know, i do want to be clear, our goal is to reopen schools as quickly as possible. And to do the things that we need to do to keep them safe, but also to keep the infection rate low so schools can continue to operate. When you heard the Restaurant Owner i spoke with, he said it makes sense for restaurants to close down. A lot of people wont see it that way. And this decision will make a difference between whether these workers can put food on the table or afford their bills. How do you weigh that decision . Its a tough decision. As a doctor i took care of many people who earned their likelihood through the restaurant industry. Cooks and waitresses and so i certainly understand what a challenging thing it is to have to shutdown, even for a temporary period. At the same time, we know through good science and evidence around the world that places where youre indoors and unable to wear your mask consistently are among the highest risk settings with respect to covid spread. Thats one of the key reasons that were looking hard at restaurants but also gyms, other places where we know they are very high risk for transmission of covid. Doctor, you often see restaurants not only here in new york city area but all across the country, theyre either buying the igloos you saw on the up every west side or building makeshift outdoor areas to keep people warm. Are those really safe . You have some restaurants in essence that are building those enclosures, mind you outside, but its right next to the restaurant itself, the building. Weve been keeping a close eye on this with respect to the different types of Outdoor Dining structures that have been created. I have to say theres a lot of ingenuity taz be ingenuity thats been deployed with respect to those structures. But from the health standpoint, if you dont have ventilation and the ability for people to space out in those structures, theyre just as risky as dining indoors. So they have to be subject to the same precautions as if one were dining indoors. For example, from new york city right now, we have 25 occupancy restriction, and that has to apply if something even if its outdoors, has the same characteristics, as if one were dining indoors. The other piece of it was to make sure the larger outdoor structures have enough openings to be able to allow air to pass through to have that sufficient ventilation. Doctor, thank you. We should mention why were paying so much attention to new york city with this, at least in this perspective here, this was the epicenter. A lot of people were so concerned with it being so dense at this point, if our case numbers continue to rise, what impact that will have here as well as across the country. Yes, the Positivity Rate can skyrocket quickly. And we remember the field hospitals. We forget we had thousands of people dyeing in new york city alone on a daily basis in the spring. President trumps claims of voter fraud now being seen by some as tactics of aoppression. What it means for the future of the Republican Party. Rememb philadelphia cream cheese.

Breaking news overnight,ed biden team slamming President Trump for his latest efforts to block certification of votes and try to overturn the election. Nbcs ali vitali is joining us from oversethere now. What youre supposed to do at these places, if you show up and theres a question about voting, you are offered a provisional ballot and then cure that and make sure it is counted as a regular vote. This lawsuit targeted counties that offered that and tried to get those thrown out. The judge did dismiss that case. Youre right, the bidens slammed that slaught. And overnight, another court rejected trump and giulianis baseless claims of voter fraud and appalling assault on our democracy. Our country will not tolerate trumps attempt to reverse results of an election he decisively lost. This has been the posture from the legal team that they were always feeling confident, ultimately the trump team did not have evidence to back up the point they were trying to make. So they felt confident they were going to prevail. At the same time the point of the lawsuit is no what theyre trying to do in each state but instead prolong the process and muddy the waters across the board. We have heard some of trumps lawyers, head lawyer among others, try to make clear this tests the limits of democracy but democracy itself is intact. Theyre watching what the lawsuit u. S. Are doing and the white house, but watching from the outside. The fact the transition has to be ascertained is an issue keeping them running in place. Theyre not allowed to coordinate with agencies on things like a potential Vaccine Distribution strategy this administration would run in the early part of next year. Why this is so abnormal is you look at the screen and see the latest gsa ascertainment over the last 20 years. You see there right after al gore conceded, george w. Bush azer takened. Look ahead to 2016, election day november 8th, Hillary Clinton conceded the next day. Donald trump was ascertained then. This is a very benign government workflow process but as with so many benign government things during the trump era, its gotten a lot of attention because now its functioning abnormally. This is not the usual period of time that it takes to ascertain a transition and actually get these things going. So its why we are seeing democrats on the hill start ramping up the pressure for the gsa to explain what the heck is going on here but also we expect to hear from biden allies and top surgettes today on the sundays shows continuing to ratchet up that pressure because they would like to see this get going two weeks ago but certainly as soon as possible. Democrats on the capitol hill asked for the head of the gsa to appear there tomorrow. Theyre not sure if she will appear. I have never paid amuch attention to the gsa as within the last 18 days. Nbcs ali vitali in wilmington, delaware for us. Thank you. More on breaking news President Trump working on an appeal after a judge dismissed his case, being slammed by the judge as an attempt to disenfranchise almost 7 million voters. He went on to claim this claim, like frankensteins monster, has been has harderredly stitched together from two distinct theories to control a representative. Joining me now is a representative from pennsylvanias 181st district. Good morning to you. Thank you for being with us sunday morning. Good morning. Im sure youve seen a series of tweets, the president planning to take this to the supreme court. What is your reaction to not only this latest effort but all of trumps efforts to overturn the election . So many of the things are legally frivolous but they are deeply dangerous. Weve never seen a president go out of his way to this degree to try to destroy the very democracy that hes swore an oath to serve and protect. I think the story of the saga with donald trump, its not just about him. Its not just the president in a vacuum making these claims. Its also the entire Republican Party at the state and federal level. The ridiculous things hes saying, even though he know better, but they are cowards. So they continue to lift up this mans ego at a moment when our country needs a peaceful and clear transition to deal with the issues that are before the american people. Trump is making claims of voter fraud in heavily black cities like philly, detroit, atlanta, milwaukee. There was a lot of talk prior to the election about long lines in voter suppression. Is this just another effort to suppress voters . Well, we know and its no major breaking News Donald Trump is a racist. And so sure he does not want to count the votes of black voters who voted in historic numbers to remove him from office. Lets be clear, joe biden got more votes in philadelphia in this last election than any person thats ever run for president in the history of running for president. People came out in record numbers to really vote against what has been an inept and corrupt administration for four years. Now those votes need to be respected. The president elect needs to be able to begin to engage with all of the mechanisms of government from dealing with this vaccine, to dealing with uptodate, National Security threats as they become available. He and his team need to be in the loop. The gsa should have signed this ascertainment at least a week ago at this point and we need to move on. But it is so it really is just disgraceful to watch the republicans who i think are just worried about the president tweeting primary opponents against them, a year or two, depending when theyre up, so theyre willing to go along with anything. The judge, a deeply conservative juch judge, who just ruled against them talked about frankenstein. I think donald trump is a frankenstein of the Republican Partys making. Prior to the election your governor had an ad saying everybody calm down. It will take a few days to know the results. That doesnt mean theres anything strange going on or fraud going on. The do you think pennsylvania will learn anything about this time and seeds of doubt that have been sown and apply that to the future . The republican majority will not. Democrats begged and begged for us to do what bipartisan county commissioners were asking. They were asking for the ability to precanvas bloallots and saw that in many other states who were able to report Election Night or the day after because they had a precanvas period. This was a strategy of state republicans to do this, they did not want precanvas. They wanted this period of delay, and they wanted to fill the delay with the type of dismf dismfdi disinformation and misinformation were hearing. Representative, thank you so much for being here. The number of sick and hospital workers rising next. Only pay for what you need. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Here pepper represents germs. With dove the germs wash away.

He started believing things that werent true. I knew something was wrong. But i didnt say a word. During the course of their disease around 50 of people with parkinsons may experience hallucinations or delusions. But now, doctors are prescribing nuplazid. The only fda approved medicine. Proven to significantly reduce hallucinations and delusions related to parkinsons. Dont take nuplazid if you are allergic to its ingredients. Nuplazid can increase the risk of death in elderly people with dementiarelated psychosis and is not for treating symptoms unrelated to parkinsons disease. Nuplazid can cause changes in heart rhythm and should not be taken if you have certain abnormal heart rhythms or take other drugs that are known to cause changes in heart rhythm. Tell your doctor about any changes in medicines youre taking. The most common side effects are swelling of the arms and legs and confusion. We spoke up and it made all the difference. Ask your parkinsons specialist about nuplazid. How is battling an uptick of firsttime coronavirus cases as we enter the thanksgiving holiday and Health Care Workerser being hit particularly h
