First question is for Trump
. Welker asked how he was going to manage the coronavirus going forward.
Trumpkin blames China again and claims that he should get credit because 2 million more people didn't die. Said "we have a vaccine that's coming, that's ready."

Now
Trump is trying to point to imaginary numbers about H1N1 from when Biden was VP.
Biden said Trump is xenophobic, but not because he shut down travel from China. Said Trump said in January that President Xi was being transparent. Trump "did virtually nothing."

10/

What should the people do about the danger. And you say, you take no responsibility.

11/

Biden is nailing this. He is doing so very well
12/
Welker asked about shut downs
Biden said "I'm going to shut down the virus, not the country." Said instead of "being in a sand trap in his golf course," Trump should have been negotiating with @TeamPelosi to get support to the country.

Welker asked about Boston shutting down schools and going entirely virtual
"We cannot keep this country closed. . .People are losing their jobs. They are committing suicide. . .There's abuse, tremendous abuse. We have to open our country."

It is clear that Biden is winning this debate.
Welker said you called Fauci and others an "idiot."
Trump said Fauci said, "this is not going to be a problem . . this is going away soon."
Fact Check false. (While initially he said masks were not necessary).

Some chatter that did not make a lot of sense from Trump about how Biden took money from Wall Street. This was Trump's attempt to deflect from the news story last week that someone in the Trump administration tipped off some traders telling them to sell stocks
20/
20/

Putin pays bounties to kill American soldiers in Afghanistan, and tries to destabilize. Why doesn't Trump condemn

FACT CHECK: Bullshit

Said Trump paid three times as much tax in China than he did in the US.
I've released 22 years of my tax returns. Trump has not released a single solitary year. What are you hiding?
23/

"I don't make money from China, you do. . . ."
LOL
24/
Welker asked when can you release your taxes. "As soon as the audit is over."
"Deep down in the IRS they treat me horribly."
Says he's treated "very badly" worse than the tea party.
This is BULLSHIT. He didn't prepay his taxes, he got tax credits from losing.

Welker asked whether anything Biden did was wrong due to son's board work on Ukrainian company.

Welker asked Trump about his hidden bank account in China.
Trump says it was listed. (It wasn't on his published financial forms). He said he closed in in 2015.

Brilliantly, Kristen Welker ignores him and asked the question she wanted to ask about the trade war he started with China
31/

He pivots and redirects the conversation to families in trouble. "The last thing he wants to talk about."
32/

He dodges the question about how Kim violated agreement.
33/

Biden said Trump's good buddy, Kim is a "thug, a thug." And they have more missiles.
Won't meet without preconditions.
34/

Wah-wah. Whine. Whine.
35/
Welker asked about protecting people with pre-existing conditions if SCOTUS destroys Obamacare (the ACA). Note he is arguing on November 10th in SCOTUS to destroy it.
36/
36/

He claims he'll protect pre-existing conditions that 180 million have great, private healthcare. And says Biden will terminate those policies.
Fact check. No
37/

"I support private insurance."
38/

Over 110 million Americans have pre-existing conditions.
39/

40/

Ummm. Obamacare. Hello. He's trying to build on that.
Now Trump is talking about fracking for some unrelated reason.
41/

"He keeps talking about it. He hasn't done a thing."

Welker is doing AMAZINGLY tonight.
She asked Trump about the millions out of work and desperate, "why haven't you been able to get them the help they need"
Trump blames Nancy Pelosi.
Always someone to blame

Welker said why hasn't Biden pushed Dems to get a deal.
Biden said Dems passed the Heroes Act this summer
Trump said the Heroes Act was a bailout for Democratic cities and would help immigrants.
46/


46/

Very important point that the states need funding and Trump is starving them.
Biden says small businesses need bailouts. 1/6 are going under.
47/


48/

No evidence that businesses go out of business he said.
49/
Welker said US cannot locate parents of more than 500 children, how will they be reunited. His administration separated thousands.
Trump dodges question. Said coyotes take kids here.
Welker asks again, how will you reunited.
"We're trying very hard."
50/

Welker asked both candidates about "the talk" that parents of Black children need to have to help protect them from police brutality. Do you understand why they fear for children
Biden answers well, and talks about wealth accumulation as well as being free from violence

Biden reminds us of his call for death penalty for Central Park accused.

Welker asked about white supremacy and his retweeting hateful statements and so on.
"It makes me sad . . I am the least racist person in this room. . . .I don't even care who's in the room."
61/

61/


62/
Welker, why should families of black men incarcerated for drug crimes vote for you?
Biden said the 1994 crime bill was a mistake. We should not send anyone to jail for a pure drug offense. We need treatment for drug and alcohol problems.
63/

63/

64/

Also, no new tone from Trump. He has a mocking tone and he's still a pig. No insult intended pigs. I'm sorry.
65/
Welker moved onto a question about the environment.
It's a lot of nonsense from Trump. "We have the cleanest air and cleanest water" He tries to justify pulling out of Paris Accord because other countries are polluting, but he ignores that we had a head start on them.
66/

66/

Labor and environmental groups support Biden's plan, he said.
67/
Okay, when is this going to end. Tired of
"They are all hoping through hoops for AOC plus three."
That's Congresswoman @AOC to you, Donald.
I cannot wait to call him #CitizenDonald.

Walker asked if you win, what will you say during inaugural address to people who did not vote for you?
Trump didn't answer. "We have to make our country totally successful . ..before the plague came in, I was getting calls from . . people who wanted to get together."

Chance to do well. "You haven't been getting it the last four years."
