HIS VOICE AT TIMES.

IT, HERE IS ONE MOMENT WHEN JOE
BIDEN ATTACKED DONALD TRUMP FOR

BIDEN ATTACKED DONALD TRUMP FOR NOT HAVING A PLAN TO CONTAIN
COVID.
COVID.
COVID. >>
COVID. >> IN LIGHT OF ALL THE LIES HE
HAS TOLD YOU ABOUT THE WHOLE
ISSUE RELATING TO COVID, HE
STILL HASN'T EVEN ACKNOWLEDGED
THAT HE KNEW THIS WAS
HAPPENING, NEW H+@OW D+@ANGEROU
WAS GOING TO BE IN FEBRUARY AND
HE DIDN'T EVEN TELL YOU.
HE+@ IS ON RECORD AS SAYING IT.
HE PANICKED OR JUST LOOKED AT
THE STOCK MARKET, ONE OF THE

A LOT OF PEOPLE DIED AND A LOT
MORE ARE GOING TO DIE UNLESS HE
GETS A LOT SMARTER A LOT
SOONER.

SOONER. >> DID YOU USE THE WORD SMART?
SO YOU SAID YOU WENT TO
DELAWARE STATE BUT YOU FORGOT
THE NAME OF YOUR COLLEGE.
YOU DIDN'T GO TO DELAWARE

LOWEST OR ALMOST THE LOWEST IN
YOUR CLASS, DON'T EVER USE THE
WORD SMART WITH

>> Reporter: THE DEBATE TOUCHED ON SIX TOPICS, NOT ONLY COVID
BUT THE ECONOMY, HOW MUCH TRUMP
PAID IN TAXES, RACIAL UNREST
WHICH WAS SUPER IMPORTANT AMONG
OTHER THINGS.
OTHER THINGS. TRUMP CALLED OUT BIDEN FOR NOT
PUBLICLY ANSWERING WEATHER I+@F
ELECTED BIDEN WOULD EXPAND THE
SIZE OF THE SUPREME COURT TO
DILUTE THE INFLUENCE OF
CONS+@ERVATIVE JUSTICES.
CONS+@ERVATIVE JUSTICES. HERE IS HOW THIS WOULD UNFOLD.
>> YOU ARE IN VOTING NOW. +@
VOTE AND LET YOUR SENATORS
+@
+@ KNOW.
KNOW.
KNOW. VOTE NOW.
VOTE NOW. +@ IN +@FACT LET PEOPLE KNOW.
+@
IN +@FACT LET PEOPLE KNOW. I'M NOT GOING TO ANSWER THE
QUESTION.
QUESTION.

QUESTION?
QUESTION?
QUESTION? >> WILL YOU SHUT UP MAN?
+@ >> WHO IS ON YOUR LIST JOE?
>> GENTLEMEN, THIS IS SO
UNPRECEDENTED.
UNPRECEDENTED. WE ARE GOING TO MOVE ON TO THE
SECOND SEGMENT.
SECOND SEGMENT. >> Reporter: THIS MORNING THE
BIG QUESTION, WILL THE DEBATE
LAST NIGHT REALLY CHANGE
ANYTHING?
ANYTHING?
ANYTHING? POSTERS FROM+@ BOTH CANDIDATES
WILL BE ASKING VOTERS WHAT THEY
THINK AND WE EXPECT TO SEE IN
THE NEXT 24 HOURS WHETHER
EITHER CANDIDATE GETS A BUMP IN
POLLING.
POLLING.
POLLING. KEEP IN MIND THERE ARE TWO MORE
OF THESE DEBATES SCHEDULED NEXT
MONTH.

GIVE SOME INSIGHT ON THE DEBATE
IS POLITICAL SCIENCE PROFESSOR
KIMI KING.
KIMI KING. THANK YOU FOR BEING UP EARLY
WITH US.
WITH US.
WITH US. >> YOU BETTER.
>> LET'S TAL+@K ABOUT THE BIGGE
WIN AND LOSS FOR EACH CANDIDATE.
>> THE FACT IS THAT GOING INTO
PRES.
PRES.
PRES. TRUMP NEEDED TO DO MORE IN
TERMS OF PULLING HIS NUMBERS
OUT FROM WHERE THEY'VE BEEN
GOING, IN ORDER TO TURN IT
AROUND AND STAY FOCUSED ON
SIGNATURE ISSUES.
SIGNATURE ISSUES. IN THAT SENSE HE WAS UNABLE TO
DO THAT.
DO THAT.
DO THAT. ON THE OTHER HAND, VP BIDEN
NEEDED TO BE ABLE TO MAKE IT
CLEAR TO PEOPLE THAT HE WAS NOT
GOING TO BE BROUGHT DOWN INTO
THE TRENCHES AND START FIGHTING
IN THE SAME WAY THAT SOME
PERCEIVE PRES.
PERCEIVE PRES. TRUMP HAS BEEN TAKING THIS RACE
ON, AND SO IN THAT SENSE THE
REALITY IS THAT THEY BOTH DID
NOT DO WHAT THEY NEEDED TO DO.
THERE IS MORE AT STAKE FOR
PRES.
PRES.
PRES. TRUMP RIGHT NOW BECAUSE THE
NUMBERS HAVE DECLINED, AND
REALLY THE MOST IMPORTANT THING
IN ADDITION TO WHAT JASON JUST
SAID ABOUT LOOKING AT THOSE
POLL NUMBERS, YOU ALSO WANT TO
LOOK AT HOW MUCH MONEY THEY
BRING IN FOR THAT PUSH.
PRES.
PRES.
PRES. TRUMP HAS BEEN RATHER CASH-
STRAPPED AND THAT WILL BE AN
ISSUE.
ISSUE.
ISSUE. BUT WHEN PEOPLE LOOK AT THIS
OVERALL, THE FACT IS CHRIS
WALLACE LOST, PRES.
TRUMP LOST, JOE BIDEN LOST AND
I THINK A LOT OF PEOPLE RIGHT
NOW FEEL LIKE +@THE AMERICAN
PEOPLE LOST.
PEOPLE LOST. AND THAT IS +@WHAT NEEDS TO BE
TURNED AROUND.
TURNED AROUND. >> SO WHAT DID CANDIDATES NEED
TO DO TO GET BACK ON TRACK?
BECAUSE MOST PEOPLE WE'VE BEEN
ASKING THIS MORNING, HOW THEY
+@
ASKING THIS MORNING, HOW THEY WOULD SOME OF THE DEBATE, THE
WORD GARBAGE, TERRIBLE,
+@
WORD GARBAGE, TERRIBLE, +@FRUSTRATING, THERE IS NOHN
POSITIVE TA A BEEN SAID.
>> DISASTER.
>> DISASTER. IT WAS A DISASTER.
THE REALITY IS OUR ECONOMY IS
IN SHAMB+@LES, WE ARE IN THE
MIDDLE OF A PANDEMIC THAT NO
ONE REALLY IN THIS GENERATION
+@
ONE REALLY IN THIS GENERATION ALIVE RIGHT NOW CAN TRULY
UNDERSTAND, OUR PLACE IN THE
WORLD STAGE HAS BEEN DIMINISHED
AND THERE IS CONCERN ABOUT THE @
DIRECTION THAT COULD TAKE AND
INSTEAD THEY ARE SLINGING
PERSONAL ATTACKS AT EACH OTHER.
YOU CAN HAVE A DISCUSSION ABOUT
WHO DID MORE, BUT I THINK THE
KEY MOMENTS FOR LAST NIGHT,
WHEN VP BIDEN LOOKED DIRECTLY
+@
WHEN VP BIDEN LOOKED DIRECTLY INTO THE CAMERA AND STAYED
FOCUS ON THAT, TO THE EXTENT
THAT THEY CAN CONTINUE TO DO
THAT, THEN EVERYONE WILL BE
SERVED WELL.
SERVED WELL. +@B+@UT IF THEY CONTINUE THIS K
OF MUDSLINGI+@NG+@ AND AVOIDING
ISSUES AND TALKING REALLY IN
ALMOST WASHINGTON INSIDER SPEAK
, THERE WERE MOMENTS THAT WERE
LITERALLY UNINTELLIGIBLE OUT OF
THE CANDIDATES, THAT'S GOING TO
CONTINUE TO BE A PROBLEM.
+@
CONTINUE TO BE A PROBLEM. THEN PEOPLE WON'T VOTE.
THEY WILL GET SO DISILLUSIONED,
+@
+@ WE
+@ WE CAN
+@ WE CAN ARGUE WITH OUR FAMILY
MEMBERS AND FRIENDS AND
NEIGHBORS FOR THE LAST FOUR
YEARS, BUT WE DON'T WANT THIS.
>> IS IT THE PROCESS OR THE
PEOPLE?
PEOPLE?
PEOPLE? DO WE NEED TO CHANGE HOW
DEBATES ARE DONE BECAUSE NOT
LOOKS LIKE EVERYONE IS LOOKING
FOR A VIRAL MOMENT.
>> THAT IS SUCH AN EXCELLENT
POINT TO MAKE.
AND REALLY IF WE ARE GOING TO
HAVE A CONVERSATION ABOUT THE
PROC+@ESS WE NEED TO LOOK AT TH
PRIMARY PROCESS.
PRIMARY PROCESS. AND A PROCESS THAT ALLOWS THEM
TO COMPETE WITH A BUNCH OF
OTHER PEOPLE AND
IT
IT IS
IT IS NOT
IT IS NOT UNTIL YOU GET NARROWED DOWN THAT YOU START TO
SEE WHAT THE CANDIDATES TRULY
BELIEVE IN.
BELIEVE IN. IT'S ALSO ABOUT CAMPAIGNING,
THE ELECTION CYCLE AND HOW LONG
THAT TAKES.
THAT TAKES. IN THE LONG RUN, WE ALSO NEED
TO HAVE A CONVERSATION ABOUT
THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE WHICH HAS
FAILED US TWO OF THE LAST FIVE
TIMES.
TIMES.
TIMES. >>
TIMES. >> ALL RIGHT, KIMI KING THANK
YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR INSIGHT.
THERE WE APPRECIATE YOU STAYING
UP LATE AND GETTING UP EARLY
AND WE WILL CONTINUE THIS
