WITH LESS THAN %
FOUR MONTHS AGO %
UNTIL ELECTION
DAY HIS TO GET A %
BOOST FROM NEW
EXECUTIVE ORDERS.
JOINING ME FROM %
THE WHITE HOUSE, %
CAROL, LET’S %
TALK ABOUT THIS. %
THE PRESIDENT %
SIGNED A %
MEMORANDUM %
TODAY. %
CAN YOU TELL US %
ABOUT THAT? %
>> SURE. %
HE SIGNED A %
MEMORANDUM THAT %
SAID
UNDOCUMENTED %
IMMIGRANTS %
CANNOT BE %
INCLUDED AS PART
OF THE 2020 %
CENSUS.
THE TITLE IS THE
MEMORANDUM OF
ENSURING AMERICAN
CITIZENS RECEIVE
PROPER RECIPE, %
REPRESENTATION. %
THE WHITE HOUSE %
SAYS THAT GIVING %
CONGRESSIONAL
REPRESENTATION TO
UNDOCUMENTED % IMMIGRANTS WOULD
IMMIGRANTS WOULD
BE A INVASION OF %
OUR DEMOCRATIC %
PRINCIPLES. %
THIS IS %
CONTROVERSIAL %
AND WE’VE SEEN %
STATEMENTS %
COMING OUT.
ACLU SAID THEY %
WILL SEE HIM IN %
COURT AND THIS %
WILL BE LEGALLY %
CHALLENGED. %
IT IS PART OF A %
BROADER EFFORT %
BY THE WHITE %
HOUSE TO %
ESSENTIALLY MAKE %
THE PRESIDENT %
LOOK COLLECTIVE %
INSTEAD OF %
REACTIVE AND %
OFFENSIVE.
HE WILL FIGHT A %
NUMBER OF %
EXECUTIVE ORDERS %
IN THE COMING %
WEEKS IN THE %
WHITE HOUSE %
EXPECTS THAT %
THEY WILL BE %
CHALLENGED IN %
COURT. %
THIS IS LARGELY %
AN ELECTION YEAR %
PLAY FOR THE %
PRESIDENT AND %
EMIGRATION IS %
OBVIOUSLY
SOMETHING THAT
PLAYS WELL WITH %
HIS BASE. %
WE WILL SEE MORE %
ON IMMIGRATION %
AS WELL AS %
HEALTHCARE %
ACCORDING TO THE %
PRESIDENT.
>>> LET’S SWITCH %
TO THE %
BRIEFINGS. %
I WILL PLAY A %
CLIP FROM THE %
LAST TIME HE %
PARTICIPATED %
BACK IN APRIL. %
LET’S LISTEN. %
>> I SEE THIS
DISINFECTANT %
COULD KNOCK IT %
OUT IN ONE %
MINUTE. %
IS THERE A WAY %
WE CAN DO %
SOMETHING LIKE %
THAT BY INJECTION
INSIDE OR WITH
THE CLEANING?
>> THAT MOMENT %
CAUSED A LOT OF %
CHATTER AND THE
PANDEMIC HAS
CHANGED %
DRAMATICALLY %
SINCE THAT APRIL %
BRIEFING. %
WHAT KIND OF %
SHIFT CAN WE %
EXPECT IN
MESSAGING TODAY?
>>REPORTER: THAT %
IS NOT THE KIND %
OF BRIEFING HE %
HAS WHEN HE %
STEPS TO THE %
PODIUM IN THE %
WHITE HOUSE. %
THEY WANT HIM TO %
FOCUS NARROWLY ON%
CORONAVIRUS AND %
THE RESPONSE TO
THE CORONAVIRUS.
ESSENTIALLY HIS %
AIDES SAY THEY %
FEEL THEY’VE LOST
CONTROL OF THIS %
NARRATIVE AND %
AMERICANS DON’T %
KNOW WHAT THE %
FEDERAL %
GOVERNMENT IS %
DOING AND THEY %
WANT THE %
PRESIDENT TO BE %
OUT THERE %
LOOKING AT THIS. %
YOU ARE LIKELY %
TO HEAR HIM TALK %
ABOUT THINGS %
LIKE VACCINES %
AND THERAPEUTICS
AND OTHER THINGS
LIKE SUPPLIES %
GOING TO VARIOUS %
STATES AND %
EVERYTHING HE IS %
DOING ON THE %
PANDEMIC. %
THAT’S HOW I %
HOPE HE WILL %
HANDLE THE %
BRIEFING. %
WE TALKED TO %
CITY OFFICIALS
WHO SAY IT’S %
LIKELY TO BE OR %
THEY HOPE IT %
WILL BE SHORTER
AND WHAT WE’VE %
SEEN BEFORE AND %
THEY COULD LOOK %
A LITTLE %
DIFFERENT THAN %
THE PAST BECAUSE %
WE ARE TOLD THAT
THE MEMBER, THE %
MEMBERS OF THE %
TASK FORCE WILL %
NOT BE THERE.
THIS WILL BE THE %
PRESIDENT ALONE
AT THE PODIUM %
TALKING ABOUT %
THE PANDEMIC. %
>> YES, WE HEARD %
THAT DR. FAUCI %
DIDN’T KNOW THE %
BRIEFINGS WERE %
COMING BACK.
LET’S TALK ABOUT
THE MASKS. %
MANY CONTINUE TO %
SAY IT IS A %
DECISION FOR THE %
GOVERNORS, THE %
PRESIDENT %
TWEETED AN IMAGE
OF HIMSELF
WEARING A FACE %
MASK CALLING %
THIS PATRIOTIC. %
HOW DO THEY %
EXPLAIN HIS %
PREVIOUS %
RELUCTANCE TO
WEAR ONE?
>> Y, HE CALLED
WEARING A MASK %
PATRIOTIC AND A %
FEW HOURS LATER %
HE WAS AT HIS %
HOTEL IN %
WASHINGTON DC %
AND DIDN’T WEAR %
A MASK. %
THIS IS MIXED
MESSAGING FROM %
THE WHITE HOUSE %
WHICH IS WHAT %
WE’VE SEEN SINCE %
THE START OF THE %
PANDEMIC.
KALEIGH McENANY %
WAS ASKED ABOUT %
THIS AND LET’S %
LISTEN TO WHAT %
SHE HAD TO SAY. %
>>
>>REPORTER: WHY
THE MIXED
MESSAGING ON %
THIS CRITICAL
HEALTH ISSUE?
>> HE HAS ALWAYS %
BEEN CONSISTENT %
THAT MASKS ARE %
RECOMMENDED BUT %
NOT REQUIRED.>> %
Reporter: HE % HASN’T WORN A %
HASN’T WORN A %
MASK.
>> Reporter: THE
PRESS SECRETARY
ALSO SAID HE IS %
TESTED MULTIPLE %
TIMES A DAY WHICH%
IS NEWS TO THOSE %
OF US THAT %
THOUGHT HE WAS %
JUST TESTED ONCE %
A DAY WHICH IS %
ONE OF THE %
REASONS THE
WHITE HOUSE HAS %
GIVEN TO WHY HE %
DOESN’T NEED TO %
WEAR A MASK. %
AS YOU KNOW, %
MASKS PROTECT %
OTHERS FROM YOU %
IF YOU WERE A %
SYMPTOMATIC %
SPREADING THE %
VIRUS. %
THE ARGUMENT IS %
THAT HE DOESN’T %
NEED TO WEAR ONE.
I EXPECT HE WILL %
BE ASKED ABOUT %
THIS AT THE %
BRIEFING LATER %
