>> PLEASE CLARIFY, SPECIFICALLY,
HAVE YOU TAKEN A.
>> NO I HAVEN’T TAKEN A TEST.
WHY THE HELL WOULD I TAKE A
TEST?
COME ON, MAN.
THAT’S LIKE SAYING, YOU KNOW,
BEFORE YOU GOT ON THIS PROGRAM
DID YOU TAKE A TEST WHERE
WHETHER YOU ARE TAKING COCAINE
OR NOT?
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
ARE YOU A JUNKY?
I KNOW YOU ARE TRYING TO GOAD
ME.
I’M SO FORWARD-LOOKING TO HAVE
AN OPPORTUNITY TO SIT WITH THE
PRESIDENT OR STAND WITH THE
PRESIDENT IN DEBATES.
PLENTY OF TIME.
I’M VERY WIG TO LET THE AMERICAN
PUBLIC JUDGE MY PHYSICAL AND
MENTAL -- MY PHYSICAL -- AS WELL
AS MY MENTAL FITNESS AND, YOU
KNOW, TO MAKE A JUDGMENT ABOUT
WHO I AM.
PETE: THAT WAS THE LATEST
INSTALLMENT OF JOE BIDEN FROM
HIS BASEMENT.
HERE TO REACT SARAH SANDERS FOX
NEWS CONTRIBUTOR AND FORMER
WHITE HOUSE PRESS SECRETARY.
SARAH, THANKS FOR BEING HERE.
THERE IS TWO PARTS TO THIS OUR
OWN DOUG McKELWAY ASKED IF HE
TAKE COGNITIVE TEST IN JUNE HE
SAYS I TAKE IT ALL THE TIME.
THE SECOND PART IS IF ASKED A
HARD QUESTION JOE BIDEN EITHER
CAN’T ANSWER IT OR YELLS AT THE
REPORTER.
I MEAN AT LEAST HE DIDN’T CALL
HIM A DOG FACED PONY SOLDIER.
WHAT’S YOUR YOUR TAKE AWAY FROM.
THIS FIRST, THESE AREN’T EVEN
HARD QUESTIONS.
HARD QUESTIONS ARE DEALING WITH
THE PROBLEMS HE WOULD FACES A
PRESIDENT.
THE THINGS THAT ARE COMING AT
HIM RIGHT NOW, PARTICULARLY
QUESTIONS FROM REPORTERS WHEN HE
ACTUALLY SHOWS UP TO TAKE A FEW
ARE SOFTBALL QUESTIONS.
THE ABILITY, RATHER, THE
INABILITY FOR HIM TO ANSWER ANY
OF THESE QUESTIONS, I THINK,
GIVE EVERYBODY A LOT OF PAUSE
BEFORE VOTING FOR HIM.
BUT, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I
FIND SO SHOCKING IS HOW QUIET
THE MEDIA IS WHEN HE COMES UP
WITH ALL OF THESE CRAZY ANSWERS.
CAN YOU IMAGINE IF DONALD TRUMP
SAID -- GAVE THAT ANSWER TO A
REPORTER ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT HE
WAS MENTALLY FIT TO BE
PRESIDENT.
THEY WOULD GO ABSOLUTELY CRAZY
EVERY TIME THE PRESIDENT SAYS
ONE WORD OFF, THEY LOSE THEIR
MINDS, THEY SPEND THE NEXT 12
HOURS RUNNING IT ON A LOOP
TALKING ABOUT HOW HE SHOULDN’T
BE PRESIDENT.
JOE BIDEN CAN’T GET THROUGH A
SINGLE INTERVIEW, PUT ONE
COHERENT SENTENCE TOGETHER AND,
YET, THEY SIT QUIETLY.
I FIND IT ABSOLUTELY AMAZES AMAZ
LITTLE YOU HEAR ABOUT THIS.
PARTICULARLY ON AN ANSWER WHERE
HE ASKED A REPORTER IF HE WAS A
JUNKY.
IT’S TRULY MIND BLOWING.
BRIAN: AT LEAST FOUR TIMES THAT
I HAVE SEEN WHEN HE WAS ON THE
CAMPAIGN TRAIL TRYING TO EARN
THIS NOMINATION THAT WAS JUST
HANDED TO HIM BY JAMES CLYBURN
HE HAS TOLD THOSE QUESTIONERS OR
THOSE ASKING A QUESTION IN NIECE
TOWN HALL SETTINGS YOU BETTER
VOTE FOR SOMEBODY ELSE.
CALLED ANOTHER GUY FAT.
ALL RIGHT?
SO THIS IS THE MAN UNCLE JOE
THAT EVERYBODY SAYS IS SUCH A
GREAT GUY.
HE MIGHT BE.
I HAVE NOT SEEN IT YET OR WAS.
AND SARAH, HOW MANY TIMES WOULD
YOU WANT TO TURN AROUND ON THAT
REPORTER WHEN YOU WERE GETTING
BLISTERED ON A DAILY BASIS TO
KEEP YOUR CALM.
I DON’T KNOW IF YOU HAVE A
PUNCHING BAG OR HEAVY BAG AT
HOME, I NEVER SAW YOU SWEAT.
JOE BIDEN SWEATING IN HIS
BASEMENT AND HE HAS GOT THE AIR
CONDITIONING ON.
MEANWHILE, THE BIDEN CAMPAIGN
SAID THIS TO FOX.
IT WAS A PREPOSTEROUS QUESTION
DESERVING OF A RESPONSE THAT
SHOWED THE BE A SUFFERED AT THIS
OF IT ALL.
LISTEN TO HIS ANSWER.
IT BACKED UP THE NEED FOR THAT
QUESTION.
>> NOT ONLY THAT IT’S THE SAME
QUESTION THAT THEY HAVE ASKED
DONALD TRUMP A MILLION TIMES.
WHERE WAS THE BIDEN CAMPAIGN
SAYING IT WAS PREPOSTEROUS TO
ASK DONALD TRUMP THAT VERY SAME
QUESTION?
I MEAN, AGAIN, THE IDEA THAT HE
CAN’T FIELD A BASIC QUESTION ON
WHETHER OR NOT HE IS CAPABLE OF
DOING THE JOB AS PRESIDENT, I
THINK, SHOWS HE IS INCAPABLE OF
DOING THE JOB AS PRESIDENT.
WE HAVE BIG CHALLENGES THAT OUR
COUNTRY FACES.
AND HE IS GOING TO HAVE TO BE
ABLE TO HANDLE A LOT OF
DIFFICULT THINGS.
IF HE CAN’T HANDLE BASIC
QUESTIONS, I CAN’T IMAGINE HOW
HE HANDELS REBUILDING THE
ECONOMY, DEFENDING AGAINST SOME
OF THE TOUGHEST ADVERSARIES OUR
COUNTRY MAY FACE.
FIGHTING BACK AGAINST CHINA AND
RUSSIA.
AND A NUMBER OF OTHER THINGS IF
HE CAN’T HANDLE A COUPLE OF
SOFTBALL QUESTIONS FROM
REPORTERS WITHOUT LOSING HIS,
YOU KNOW, COOL EVERY SINGLE TIME
HE GETS A LITTLE BIT OF PUSH
BACK.
I THINK THAT’S ONE OF THE BIG
REASONS THAT DONALD TRUMP IS
GOING TO DO VERY WELL IN
NOVEMBER BECAUSE PEOPLE, AT THE
END OF THE DAY, KNOW THAT JOE
BIDEN IS NOT READY TO LEAD THIS
COUNTRY AND CERTAINLY NOT READY
TO TAKE ON THE CHALLENGES THAT
WE FACE AHEAD.
AINSLEY: YOU BRING UP A GOOD
POINT WE WOULD NEVER ASK SOMEONE
AT A DINNER PARTY THAT BUT YOU
CAN ASK THE PRESIDENT OF THE
UNITED STATES SOMEONE WHO WANTS
TO HAVE THAT POSITION,
COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF, WHO MAKES
DECISIONS ABOUT OUR MILITARY
PUTTING OUR MEN AND WOMEN’S
LIVES ON THE LINES, I THINK IT’S
A FAIR QUESTION.
LET’S TALK ABOUT THE CAMPAIGN
STRATEGIES OF BOTH CAMPS.
YOU HAVE POLITICO WRITING THIS
IS THEIR HEADLINE TRUMP CAMPAIGN
KNOCKS ON A MILLION DOORS A
WEEK.
BIDEN KNOCKS ON ZERO.
THEN THE HEADLINE FOR "NEW YORK
POST" OP-ED SAYS JOE BIDEN’S
BASEMENT STRATEGY WILL BACKFIRE.
COMPARE THE TWO CAMPAIGNS AND
HOW THINK IS DOING A BETTER JOB.
I GUESS I KNOW WHAT YOUR ANSWER
IS GOING TO BE.
>> I THINK IT’S REALLY SIMPLE.
THERE IS ENTHUSIASM FOR
PRESIDENT TRUMP WHERE THERE
ISN’T FOR PRESIDENT BIDEN
CAMPAIGN.
PEOPLE JUST AREN’T EXCITED ABOUT
SEEING JOE BIDEN WIN THE
NOMINATION IN THE WAY THAT
PEOPLE ARE READY TO DO JUST
ABOUT ANYTHING TO SEE DONALD
TRUMP REELECTED.
THIS COUNTRY HAS DONE INFINITELY
BETTER UNDER HIS LEADERSHIP AND
PEOPLE WANT TO SEE MORE OF THAT.
AND THEY LOVE THAT HE IS
SOMEBODY WHO FIGHTS BACK, WHO
STANDS UP FOR OUR COUNTRY AND,
FRANKLY, DOESN’T APOLOGIZE FOR
THE GREATNESS OF AMERICA.
JOE BIDEN CAN’T PUT A SENTENCE
TOGETHER.
THERE IS NO WONDER HIS CAMPAIGN
DOESN’T WANT HIM OUT MORE.
WOULD YOU IF YOU WERE HIS
CAMPAIGN MANAGER, IF YOU WERE
THE ONE MAKING DECISIONS?
WOULD YOU WANT HIM GOING OUT AND
MAKING BLUNDERS AFTER BLUNDER?
I DON’T THINK SO.
YOU WOULD WANT TO TUCK HIM AWAY.
HAVE OTHER PEOPLE PUT OUT
RESPONSES AND TALKING POINTS ON
HIS BEHALF AND HOPE FOR THE
BEST.
DONALD TRUMP HAS BEEN OUT EVERY
SINGLE DAY.
HE TAKES HARD QUESTIONS.
HE TALKS ABOUT HIS RECORD.
HE TALKS ABOUT WHAT HE IS GOING
TO DO.
AND, FRANKLY, HE HAS PROVEN
HIMSELF AS A CAPABLE LEADER.
I THINK THE CONTRAST COULD NOT
BE CLEARER.
I THINK THAT NOVEMBER WILL SHOW
THAT I THINK VOTERS ARE VERY
SMART.
MUCH SMARTER THAN DEMOCRATS GIVE
THEM CREDIT FOR AND IT’S THE
REASONABLE THAT DONALD TRUMP WON
IN 2016 AND THE REASON HE IS
GOING TO WIN AGAIN IN NOVEMBER
OF 2020.
PETE: JOE BIDEN IS ON TOUR OF
OHIO RIGHT NOW VIRTUALLY A BIG
BET BEING MADE BY THE BIDEN
CAMPAIGN THEY CAN DO IT
DIGITALLY.
IN AN ERA VOTER REGISTRATION
MIGHT MATTER WHERE THEY ARE
PUSHING OUT POLITICS.
THIS POLITICS DOOR TO DOOR COULD
END UP VERY IMPORTANT IN KEY
STATES.
>> AGAIN, I THINK IT SHOWS THE
LACK OF ENTHUSIASM.
NOBODY IS VOTING FOR A PRESIDENT
BIDEN.
EVEN WHEN THEY TALK ABOUT WHAT
REASON THEY HAVE FOR HIM, YOU
KNOW, BECOMING PRESIDENT, HAS
NOTHING TO DO WITH JOE BIDEN AND
EVERYTHING IS ABOUT ATTACKING
DONALD TRUMP.
DONALD TRUMP SURROGATES ON THE
OTHER HAND HAVE A LOT OF GREAT
THINGS TO TALK ABOUT.
HAVE A RECORD OF THREE AND A
HALF YEARS OF ACCOMPLISHMENTS
THAT THEY CAN TOUT WHEN
CAMPAIGNING FOR THE PRESIDENT.
I THINK THAT IS A HUGE
DIFFERENCE AND I THINK THAT’S
ONE OF THE REASONS YOU DON’T SEE
THOSE VOLUNTEERS.
YOU DON’T SEE THOSE MASSIVE
VOTER REGISTRATION EFFORTS THE
WAY THAT YOU ARE SEEING FROM THE
TRUMP CAMPAIGN.
I THINK IT’S GOING TO MAKE A BIG
DIFFERENCE.
AGAIN, I THINK THAT ENTHUSIASM
GAP WAS SOMETHING THAT PEOPLE
MISSED IN 2016 AND I THINK THEY
ARE MISSING IT AGAIN IN 2020.
BRIAN: THEY DID OUTRAISE THE
BIDEN CAMP BREAKING THEIR ONE
MONTH STREAK.
THEY DID RAISE MORE THAN THEM
LAST MONTH.
>> 165 MILLION FOR TRUMP LAST
MONTH --
>> IVANKA TRUMP RAISE YOU HAD
$4 MILLION JUST THIS WEEK
VIRTUALLY.
THAT’S MORE THAN JOE BIDEN CAN
RAISE AS A CANDIDATE HIMSELF.
I THINK THAT SHOWS THE
DIFFERENCE IN THE POWER OF THE
PEOPLE SUPPORTING THIS PRESIDENT
VERSUS THOSE SUPPORTING THE VICE
