didn't seem to be dealing with the plague. 862 00:47:41,333 --> 00:47:43,250 We have so much testing, 863 00:47:43,333 --> 00:47:46,000 I don't think you need that kind of testing or that much testing, 864 00:47:46,083 --> 00:47:50,250 but some people disagree with me and some people agree with me. 865 00:47:50,333 --> 00:47:55,250 Everybody hated everybody else, and the whole country was on fire. 866 00:47:55,333 --> 00:47:58,791 Not just the forests but the towns and cities. 867 00:47:59,750 --> 00:48:02,416 The only thing that wasn't on fire was the fucking sea 868 00:48:02,500 --> 00:48:04,541 and that was probably thinking about it. 869 00:48:04,625 --> 00:48:06,583 As if all that wasn't enough, 870 00:48:06,666 --> 00:48:11,125 they dropped in an unexpected twist involving a beloved character. 871 00:48:12,833 --> 00:48:14,666 This is a Fox News alert. 872 00:48:14,750 --> 00:48:18,000 US Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg 873 00:48:18,083 --> 00:48:20,416 has died at the age of 87. 874 00:48:20,500 --> 00:48:24,375 Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was a feminist icon and trailblazer 875 00:48:24,458 --> 00:48:26,750 who fought for abortion rights, 876 00:48:26,833 --> 00:48:31,458 gender equality, and a 600-mile gas pipeline through indigenous land. 877 00:48:31,541 --> 00:48:35,541 RBG's dying wish was that she wouldn't be replaced on the Supreme Court 878 00:48:35,625 --> 00:48:38,291 until the next president was sworn in. 879 00:48:38,375 --> 00:48:42,125 But that dying wish died with her. 880 00:48:42,208 --> 00:48:44,375 Breaking tonight, Fox News has confirmed 881 00:48:44,458 --> 00:48:47,541 President Trump will nominate Amy Coney Barrett 882 00:48:47,625 --> 00:48:49,458 as the next Supreme Court Justice. 883 00:48:50,041 --> 00:48:52,708 As Fox News made bombastically clear, 884 00:48:52,791 --> 00:48:55,583 Trump selected Amy Coney Barrett, a devout Catholic 885 00:48:55,666 --> 00:48:59,500 who claims a legal career is "a means to an end of serving God." 886 00:49:00,458 --> 00:49:02,333 God was unavailable for comment. 887 00:49:02,833 --> 00:49:07,625 Amy Coney Barrett stands for everything RBG was against, everything! 888 00:49:07,708 --> 00:49:09,791 She's so pro-life, I got a theory. 889 00:49:09,875 --> 00:49:13,375 She's secretly bankrolled by the wire hanger industry. 890 00:49:13,958 --> 00:49:15,375 September 26th, 891 00:49:15,458 --> 00:49:18,666 and The White House throws a ceremony in the Rose Garden, 892 00:49:18,750 --> 00:49:21,250 announcing Coney Barrett's nomination. 893 00:49:21,333 --> 00:49:25,708 It is a roll call of the great and good and soon to be infected. 894 00:49:26,208 --> 00:49:28,666 Most of the president's inner circle was there, 895 00:49:28,750 --> 00:49:32,833 although the most significant attendee was the novel coronavirus, 896 00:49:32,916 --> 00:49:35,250 silently mingling among the guests, 897 00:49:35,333 --> 00:49:38,333 particularly the ones who didn't believe in it yet. 898 00:49:39,416 --> 00:49:43,208 But in the following days, the President is beset by other distractions. 899 00:49:43,291 --> 00:49:46,125 The New York Times uncovers his tax returns, 900 00:49:46,208 --> 00:49:50,250 revealing that, like all top businessmen, he has made no money in years. 901 00:49:51,375 --> 00:49:56,583 September 29th, and the first presidential debate makes for illuminating television. 902 00:49:56,666 --> 00:49:58,708 I'm Chris Wallace of Fox News, 903 00:49:58,791 --> 00:50:02,333 and I welcome you to the first of the 2020 presidential debates. 904 00:50:03,083 --> 00:50:05,958 Trump comes out just like regular Trump, grouchy, 905 00:50:06,041 --> 00:50:08,416 like something was eating him up on the inside. 906 00:50:08,500 --> 00:50:10,583 Which of course we now know it was. 907 00:50:10,666 --> 00:50:13,291 While Biden's just trying to look alive. 908 00:50:13,375 --> 00:50:14,916 And then the debate started 909 00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:18,291 and straightaway it was like a rap battle in a senior home. 910 00:50:18,375 --> 00:50:19,541 But worse. 911 00:50:19,625 --> 00:50:22,333 - The question is… - The new Supreme Court Justice… 912 00:50:22,416 --> 00:50:25,375 - …the radical left. - Will you shut up, man. 913 00:50:25,458 --> 00:50:27,333 I'd say it was a train wreck and a shitshow, 914 00:50:27,416 --> 00:50:30,083 but that would be unfair to trains and shit. 915 00:50:30,166 --> 00:50:31,583 Well, it's incredible, really. 916 00:50:31,666 --> 00:50:37,541 73 million Americans witnessing a debate as intellectually stimulating 917 00:50:37,625 --> 00:50:41,625 as watching two pigeons fight over a piece of bread in a car lot. 918 00:50:41,708 --> 00:50:44,000 A key moment comes when Trump is asked 919 00:50:44,083 --> 00:50:47,208 to condemn white supremacists and fumbles the response. 920 00:50:47,291 --> 00:50:48,958 What do you wanna call them? 921 00:50:49,041 --> 00:50:52,250 - Who would you like me to condemn? - The Proud Boys. 922 00:50:52,333 --> 00:50:55,375 Proud Boys, stand back and stand by. 923 00:50:55,458 --> 00:50:57,916 He told those guys to stand by. 924 00:50:58,458 --> 00:51:00,250 That's not disavowing. 925 00:51:00,750 --> 00:51:03,041 That's pumping a fucking shotgun. 926 00:51:03,666 --> 00:51:06,416 Following the debate, the only positive news for Trump 927 00:51:06,500 --> 00:51:08,458 is his coronavirus test result, 928 00:51:08,541 --> 00:51:11,500 which prompts negative blanket coverage. 929 00:51:11,583 --> 00:51:13,500 It starts with breaking news… 930 00:51:13,583 --> 00:51:18,250 Breaking news, President Trump has tested positive for coronavirus. 931 00:51:18,333 --> 00:51:21,666 It is extraordinary on many different levels. 932 00:51:21,750 --> 00:51:23,791 No one saw that coming. 933 00:51:23,875 --> 00:51:25,333 Oh, let me rephrase that. 934 00:51:26,250 --> 00:51:28,791 Everyone saw that coming. 935 00:51:28,875 --> 00:51:31,166 We just didn't believe it'd actually happen. 936 00:51:31,250 --> 00:51:34,500 Well then, of course, the people surrounding him all start falling ill. 937 00:51:34,583 --> 00:51:38,041 Even Melania, who'd been socially distancing from him 938 00:51:38,125 --> 00:51:40,125 for the past four years. 939 00:51:40,208 --> 00:51:42,750 The President didn't exactly take precautions, did he? 940 00:51:42,833 --> 00:51:45,416 Sorry, are you saying this was his fault? 941 00:51:45,500 --> 00:51:47,333 Well, he rarely wore a mask. 942 00:51:47,416 --> 00:51:49,041 Didn't wear a mask? 943 00:51:49,125 --> 00:51:53,291 Are you saying because of the way he was dressed he was asking for it? 944 00:51:53,375 --> 00:51:57,958 Because that, my friend, is victim blaming and you should hang your head in shame. 945 00:51:58,041 --> 00:52:01,750 As an overweight 74-year-old male, Trump is at low risk 946 00:52:01,833 --> 00:52:05,083 of appearing on the cover of Sports Illustrated's Swimsuit issue. 947 00:52:05,166 --> 00:52:07,208 But at high-risk from coronavirus. 948 00:52:07,291 --> 00:52:08,791 As his condition worsens, 949 00:52:08,875 --> 00:52:10,875 he's transported to Walter Reed Hospital 950 00:52:10,958 --> 00:52:13,041 and the world holds its breath. 951 00:52:13,708 --> 00:52:17,958 It was actually a moment of national unity. 952 00:52:18,708 --> 00:52:22,750 Whatever their political alliance, everyone in America was praying that day. 953 00:52:22,833 --> 00:52:24,333 For different outcomes. 954 00:52:24,416 --> 00:52:27,416 So, the President is in a military hospital 955 00:52:27,500 --> 00:52:31,291 getting injected with an experimental antibody treatment. 956 00:52:31,375 --> 00:52:35,125 By now, I'm thinking this storyline's far-fetched, 957 00:52:35,208 --> 00:52:38,625 but I'm well into this, I'm bingeing the shit out of it. 958 00:52:38,708 --> 00:52:41,625 Well-wishers outside the hospital show their support 959 00:52:41,708 --> 00:52:45,375 and are rewarded when the President commandeers a Secret Service vehicle 960 00:52:45,458 --> 00:52:48,083 to perform the most dangerous drive-by 961 00:52:48,166 --> 00:52:50,541 since the final moments of Tupac Shakur. 962 00:52:50,625 --> 00:52:53,833 Then there was this mental bit where he flew back to the White House 963 00:52:53,916 --> 00:52:55,958 and stood on the balcony and took his mask off 964 00:52:56,041 --> 00:53:00,375 so we'd know it was actually him and not a beautiful woman in disguise. 965 00:53:00,458 --> 00:53:03,625 Then he proved both his thumbs still worked. 966 00:53:03,708 --> 00:53:05,208 Thank God. 967 00:53:05,291 --> 00:53:07,458 And he saluted a helicopter, 968 00:53:07,541 --> 00:53:10,166 which couldn't see him because it was flying away. 969 00:53:10,250 --> 00:53:13,375 The production values were through the roof. 970 00:53:13,458 --> 00:53:16,541 It looked like the final shot in the season finale of America. 971 00:53:16,625 --> 00:53:20,333 So, I was quite surprised when the country kept going after that. 972 00:53:20,833 --> 00:53:22,416 It was quite remarkable really, 973 00:53:22,500 --> 00:53:25,583 one of the most iconic moments in history that any of us will live through, 974 00:53:25,666 --> 00:53:28,916 but also deeply profoundly stupid. 975 00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:32,791 The history books covering this period will have to be written in crayon. 976 00:53:33,500 --> 00:53:34,875 By a dog. 977 00:53:34,958 --> 00:53:37,583 I stood out front, I led. 978 00:53:37,666 --> 00:53:41,666 Nobody that's a leader would not do what I did. 979 00:53:41,750 --> 00:53:45,250 And I know there's a risk, there's a danger, but that's OK. 980 00:53:45,333 --> 00:53:48,458 And now I'm better and maybe I'm immune, I don't know. 981 00:53:48,541 --> 00:53:49,833 Despite his ordeal, 982 00:53:49,916 --> 00:53:52,625 Trump seems to have gained little sympathy from the US public 983 00:53:52,708 --> 00:53:54,958 and is cratering in the polls. 984 00:53:55,041 --> 00:53:59,041 Right about now, it looked like Trump needed some kind of October surprise 985 00:53:59,125 --> 00:54:01,333 to wipe the smile off Biden's skull. 986 00:54:01,416 --> 00:54:02,958 In a bombshell report, 987 00:54:03,041 --> 00:54:07,666 Hunter Biden is accused of introducing his father to a Ukrainian businessman. 988 00:54:07,750 --> 00:54:09,458 You said Ukraine didn't exist. 989 00:54:09,541 --> 00:54:10,541 That's not relevant. 990 00:54:10,625 --> 00:54:14,166 What is relevant is the total silence from the mainstream media. 991 00:54:14,250 --> 00:54:16,708 No-one was asking about Hunter Biden anywhere. 992 00:54:16,791 --> 00:54:18,166 It's like I said on Joe Rogan. 993 00:54:18,250 --> 00:54:19,750 What about Hunter Biden? 994 00:54:19,833 --> 00:54:21,208 And on Tucker Carlson… 995 00:54:21,291 --> 00:54:22,458 What about Hunter Biden? 996 00:54:22,541 --> 00:54:23,500 More than once. 997 00:54:23,583 --> 00:54:24,875 What about Hunter Biden? 998 00:54:24,958 --> 00:54:27,125 Let's hope that evidence arrives in the mail. 999 00:54:27,208 --> 00:54:28,416 That is exactly right. 1000 00:54:28,500 --> 00:54:32,458 And I said it in my New York Times bestseller, What About Hunter Biden? 1001 00:54:33,541 --> 00:54:36,583 - What about Hunter Biden? - You don't even want to ask about it! 1002 00:54:37,083 --> 00:54:41,208 As the crucial day nears, other factors make 2020's election 1003 00:54:41,291 --> 00:54:44,041 as unpredictable as an ape with a hockey stick. 1004 00:54:44,125 --> 00:54:47,416 The pandemic forces states to introduce widespread postal voting, 1005 00:54:47,500 --> 00:54:51,583 dragging the US electoral system into the 19th century. 1006 00:54:52,791 --> 00:54:55,541 Trump supporters were gonna vote in person on election day 1007 00:54:55,625 --> 00:54:57,833 because they weren't afraid of the virus. 1008 00:54:58,666 --> 00:54:59,958 Or fascism. 1009 00:55:00,041 --> 00:55:03,708 Covid-cautious Democrats were more likely to vote by post 1010 00:55:03,791 --> 00:55:06,625 from the comfort of their liberal elitist homes, 1011 00:55:06,708 --> 00:55:10,541 wearing a mask and swabbing the pencil down with bleach when they'd finished. 1012 00:55:10,625 --> 00:55:13,833 Advance in-person voting also explodes. 1013 00:55:13,916 --> 00:55:17,791 Lines stretch for miles as Americans wait for a go on their democracy. 1014 00:55:17,875 --> 00:55:23,000 It was so inspiring to see so many Americans voting. Um… 1015 00:55:23,083 --> 00:55:26,416 Yeah, and there was a pretty big, uh… 1016 00:55:26,500 --> 00:55:30,666 black vote too, which I think is so great! 1017 00:55:30,750 --> 00:55:33,916 And I mean, obviously, I have no problem with that 1018 00:55:34,000 --> 00:55:36,708 as long as everyone has proper ID with a current street address 1019 00:55:36,791 --> 00:55:38,500 and they keep their hands in the air.
