Color Key
Orange letters are attacks against the policies of President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Penceās administration.
Yellow letters are personal attacks against either President Donald Trump or Vice President Mike Pence or general attacks against the Republican party. These have no place in a civil debate and only lead to division.
Purple letters are statements about his record, Senator Kamala Harris’s record.
Gray letters are statements about his personal values or Senator Kamala Harris’s values or beliefs.
Blue letters are the most important, because those are policy statements or āWe WILL ___ā statements. These are the most significant words spoken in a debate. Sadly, there have been few of these uttered in either of the two 2020 presidential debates. Scroll below to see how few policy words were spoken.
Black letters are extra, they are not history records, policy statements or attacks. Sometimes, they are āthank youāsā or contain gestures. Often times, they are time-fillers in order to avoid the real question.
What He Said:
“How you doing, man?
Iām well.
Laughed
Well, first of all, thank you for doing this and looking forward to this, Mr. President. The American people have a right to have a say in who the Supreme Court nominee is and that say occurs when they vote for United States Senators and when they vote for the President of United States. Theyāre not going to get that chance now because weāre in the middle of an election already. The election has already started. Tens of thousands of people already voted and so the thing that should happen is we should wait. We should wait and see what the outcome of this election is because thatās the only way the American people get to express their view is by who they elect as President and who they elect as Vice President. Now, whatās at stake here is the Presidentās made it clear, he wants to get rid of the Affordable Care Act. Heās been running on that, he ran on that and heās been governing on that. Heās in the Supreme Court right now trying to get rid of the Affordable Care Act, which will strip 20 million people from having health insurance now, if it goes into court. And the justice, Iām not opposed to the justice, she seems like a very fine person. But sheās written, before she went in the bench, which is her right, that she thinks that the Affordable Care Act is not Constitutional. The other thing thatās on the court, and if itās struck down, what happens? Womenās rights are fundamentally changed. Once again, a woman could pay more money because she has a pre-existing condition of pregnancy. Theyāre able to charge women more for the same exact procedure a man gets. And that ended when we, in fact, passed the Affordable Care Act, and thereās a hundred million people who have pre-existing conditions and theyāll be taken away as well. Those pre-existing conditions, insurance companies are going to love this. And so itās just not appropriate to do this before this election. If he wins the election and the Senate is Republican, then he goes forward. If not, we should wait until February.
Heās elected to the next election. The election’s already started.
That’s simply not true.
Laughed
Open discussion.
Number one, he knows what I proposed. What I proposed is that we expand Obamacare and we increase it. We do not wipe any. And one of the big debates we had with 23 of my colleagues trying to win the nomination that I won, were saying that Biden wanted to allow people to have private insurance still. They can. They do. They will under my proposal. That is simply a lie.
My party is me. And right now, I am the Democratic Party. I am the Democratic Party right now.
The platform of the Democratic Party is wh- what I, in fact, approved of, what I approved of. Now, hereās the deal. The deal is that itās going to wipe out pre-existing conditions. And, by the way, the 200,000 people that have died on his watch, how many of those have survived?
Well, thereās seven million people that contracted COVID. What does it mean for them going forward if you strike down the Affordable Care Act? Laughed
Iām happy to talk about this. Look- Look, here’s the deal
Laughed
Late on the draw
By the way
You’re not going to be able to shut him up.
Laughed
Let me finish. The point is that the President also is opposed to Roe V. Wade. Thatās on the ballot as well and the court, in the court, and so thatās also at stake right now. And so the election is already begun
Well, because you say-
Uh. It’s on the ballot in the court. In the court.
Donald, would you just be quiet.
I don’t know her…

He has not cut healthcare
Laughed.
[uttered something]
Yes.
It is not!
Sorry.
It does not! It’s only for those people that are so poor It does not. Itās only for those people who are so poor they qualify for Medicaid they can get that free in most States, except Governors who want to deny people who are poor Medicaid. Anyone who qualifies for Medicare-
M-m-excuse me, Medicaid would automatically be enrolled in the public option. The vast majority of the American people would still not be in that option. Number one. Number two.
[uttered something]
Yeah, well the manifesto
Look, hey-
I’m not going to listen to him-The fact of the matter is I beat Bernie Sanders.
I beat him by a whole hell of a lot. I’m-I’m here facing you old buddy.
Well, I’ll tell you-
All he knows how to do is hurt people Look, here’s the deal. I got very lucky. Iām going to get very lucky tonight as well. And, tonight I’m going to make sure– because here’s the deal. Here’s the deal, the The fact is that everything heās saying so far is simply a lie. I’m not here to call out his lies. Everybody knows heās a liar. I just wanna make sure. I wanna make sure. [Laughed] God. I wanna make sure. No, he doesn’t know how to do that. He has,
You picked the wrong- The wrong guy, the wrong time. Here’s the deal. The whole idea- There is no manifesto number one. Number two, Number two–I, I…
Folks, do you have any idea what this clown’s doing? [uttered something] Well I’ll tell you what, he is not for any help for people needing healthcare. Because- Because-he, in fact, already has costs 10 million people their healthcare that they had from their employers because of his recession. Number one. Number two, there are 20 million people getting healthcare through Obamacare now that he wants to take it away. He wonāt ever look you in the eye and say thatās what he wants to do. Take it away. And by the way, he doesn’t know how He doesn’t know how.
to do that. He has never done a single thing. [Looked confused} [uttered something]
Not true.
[Laughed}
[uttered something]. [uttered something] That’s what he’s known for
That’s what his people have said.
He has no plan for healthcare. He sends out wishful thinking. He has Executive Orders that have no power. He hasnāt lowered drug costs for anybody. Heās been promising a healthcare plan since he
got elected. He has none, like almost everything else he talks about. He does not have a plan. He doesnāt have a plan. And the fact is this man doesnāt know what heās talking about. He doesn’t have a plan.
Sure
No, I’m saying–
Whatever position I take on that, thatāll become the issue. The issue is the American people should speak. You should go out and vote.
Youāre voting now. Vote and let your Senators know strongly how you feel. Let. Vote now. Make sure you, in fact, let people know, your Senators. Iām not going to answer the question, because–
The question. [Closed eyes] Will you shut up, man? This is so– This is so unpresidential
That was really a productive segment, wasn’t it?
Keep yapping, man.
Yeah, they sure do.

[Laughed]
2 [uttered something]
Good luck. 200,000 dead. As you said, over seven million infected in the United States. We, in fact, have five perc- four percent of the worldās population, 20% of the deaths. 40,000 people a day are contracting COVID. In addition to that, about between 750 and 1000 people a day are dying. When he was presented with that number, he said, āIt is what it is.ā Well, it is what it is because you are who you are. Thatās why it is. The President has no plan. He hasnāt laid out anything. He knew all the way back in February how serious this crisis was. He knew it was a deadly disease.
What did he do? Heās on tape as acknowledging he knew it. He said he didnāt tell us or give people a warning of it because he didnāt want to panic the American people. You donāt panic. He panicked. In addition to that, what did he do? He went in and he
we were insisting that the Chinese, that the people we had in the ground in China should be able to go to Wuhan and determine for themselves how dangerous this was. He did not even ask Xi to do that. He told us what a great job Xi was doing. He said we owe him debt of gratitude for being so transparent with us. And what did he do then? He then did nothing. He waited and waited and waited. He still doesnāt have a plan. I laid out, back in March exactly what we should be doing and I laid out again in July what we should be doing. We should be providing the money the House has passed in order to be able to go out and get people the help they need to keep their businesses open. Open schools it costs a lot of money. You should get out of your bunker and get out of the sand trap and get in your golf course and go in the Oval Office and bring together the Democrats and Republicans and fund what needs to be done now to save lives.
[uttered something]
It’s unrelated.
[Laughed] [Laughed] [Laughed]
I know how to do the job. I know how to get the job done.
[uttered something]. Fourteen thousand. Fourteen thousand people died, not two hundred thousand, there was noone, we didn’t shut down the economy. This is his economy that’s being he shut down. The reason itās shut down is because, look, you folks at home. How many of you got up this morning and had an empty chair at the kitchen table because someone died of COVID? How many of you are in a situation where you lost your mom or dad and you couldnāt even speak to them, you had a nurse holding a phone up so you could in fact say goodbye? How many people? And, and by the way
His own CDC Director says we could lose as many as another 200,000 people between now and the end of the year. And he said, if we just wear a mask, we can save half those numbers. Just a mask. And by the way, in terms
of the whole notion of a vaccine, weāre for a vaccine, but I donāt trust him at all. Nor do you. I know you donāt. What we trust is a scientist. We trust Dr. Fauci. And–and–by the way. [Uttered something]
[Laughed]. God.
[uttered something]
This is the same man who told you, by Easter this would be gone away, by the warm weather it’d be gone, miraculously. Like a miracle. And by the way, maybe you could inject some bleach in your arm and that would take care of it. This is the same man.
[uttered something]
So hereās the deal. This man is talking about a vaccine. Every serious. Every serious company is talking about maybe having a vaccine done by the end of the year, but the distribution of that vaccine will not occur until sometime beginning of the middle of next year to get it out, if we get the vaccine. And pray God we will. Pray God we will.
No more than the question you just asked him. You pointed out he puts pressure and disagrees with his own scientists. You can’t Well no no you can trust the scientists. He didn’t she didn’t say that, you can trust the
yes, well the, that–
that’s what he’s going to try to do, but there’s millions of scientists, there’s thousands of scientists out there like here at this great hospital that don’t work for him, their job dodent depend on him. That’s not…They’re the people And by the way, [uttered something]
and by the way, Do you believe for a moment what he’s telling you, in light of all the lies he’s told you about the whole issue relating to COVID? He still hasn’t acknowledged.
He still hasnāt even acknowledged that he knew this was happening, knew how dangerous it was going to be back in February, and he didnāt even tell you. Heās on record as saying it. He panicked or he just looked at the stock market. One of the two. Because guess what? A lot of people died
and a lot more are going to die unless he gets a lot smarter, a lot quicker- [Laughed]
Oh, give me a break.
Well, letās have this debate [uttered something]. See [utters something]. Okay [looked confused]
Because he doesnāt have a plan. If I were running it, Iād know what the plan is. Youāve got to provide these businesses the ability to have the money to be able to reopen with the PPE, as well as with the sanitation they need. You have to provide
[uttered something] Will he just shush for a minute?
And, by the way, Nancy Pelosi and Schumer, they have a plan. He won’t even meet with them. Republicans won’t even meet in the Senate- And he said- he sits in his golf course, I mean- I mean, think about it
[Laughed]
Oh God.
You just admitted you shut it down.
I’ve got to respond to that I’ve got to- respond to that
[Laughed]
Just like your rally?
[Laughed]
Look, the way to open businesses is give them the wherewithal to be able open.
We provided money, the-
[confused look]
Well, masks make a big difference. His own head of the CDC said if we just wore masks between now, if everybody wore a mask and social distanced between now and January, weād probably save up to 100,000
lives. It matters. And no serious person said the opposite No Serious person He did not say the-
[Laughed]
By the, by the way, did y-you see one of the last big rallies he has? And a reporter came up to him to ask him a question, he said, āNo, no, no. Stand back, put on your mask, put on a mask. Have you been tested?
Iām way far away from those other people.ā Thatās what he said, āIām going to be okay.ā He not worried about you. Heās not worried about the people out there breathing on one another No negative effect, come on. Well–
Yes
Yes I would
He’s been totally irresponsible in the way that he has handled the um social distancing and people wearing masks, basically encouraged them not to. He’s a fool on that
The difference is millionaires and billionaires like him in the middle of the COVID crisis have done very well. Billionaires have made another $300 billion because of his profligate tax cut–uh, uh, proposal, and he only focused on the market. But you folks at home, you folks living in Scranton and Claymont and all the small towns and working class towns in America, how well are you doing? This guy paid $750 in taxes
Do I get my time back? The fact is that he has in fact, worked on this in a way that heās going to be the first president of the United States to leave office, having fewer jobs in his administration than when he became president. Fewer jobs than when he became president. First one in American history. Secondly, the people who have lost their jobs are those people who have been on the front lines. Those people who have been saving our lives, those people who have been out there dying.
People whoāve been putting themselves in the way to make sure that we could all try to make it. And the idea that he is insisting that we go forward and open when you have almost half the states in America with a significant increase in COVID deaths and COVID cases in the United
States of America, and he wants to open it up more. Why is he want to open it up? Why does he take care of theā¦ You canāt fix the economy until you fix the COVID crisis. And he has no intention of doing anything about making it better for you all at home
Schools. Why arenāt schools open? Because it costs a lot of money to open them safely. They were going to give, his administration going to give the teachers and school students masks, and then they decided no, couldnāt do that because itās not a national emergency. Not a
national emergency. Theyāve done nothing to help small businesses. Nothing. Theyāre closing. One in six is now gone. He ought to get on the job and take care of the needs of the American people so we can
open safely.
People want to be-safe
[Laughed] [Laughed]
Show us your tax returns. Show us your tax returns.
Oh
[Laughed]
Release your tax returns. Release your tax returns
When? [uttered something]
[Laughed]
Yeah, I do want to respond. Look, the tax code that made him, that put him in a position that he pays less tax than on the money a school teacher makes–than on the money a school teacher pays–is because of himā¦ He says heās smart because he can take advantage of the tax code. And he does take advantage of the tax code. Thatās why Iām going to eliminate the Trump tax cuts. I’m gonna eliminate those tax cuts, and make sure that we invest in the people who in fact need the help. People out there need help. Because you weren’t President, screwing things up. You’re the worst President America’s ever had. Come on
Well, just take a look at what is the analysis done by Wall Street firms, points out that my economic plan would create seven million more jobs than his in four years, number one. And number two, it would create an additional $1 trillion in economic growth, because it would be about buying American. The federal government spends $600 billion a year on everything from ships, to steel, to buildings and the like. And under my proposal, weāre going to make sure that every penny of that has to be made by a company- Oh, I–
By the way, Iām going to eliminate a significant number of the taxes. Iām going to make the corporate tax 28%. It shouldnāt be 21%. You have nineteen companies uh uh ninety one companies federal and um I mean fortune five hundereds who don’t pay a single penny in tax making billions of dollars.
Because-Because you in fact passed that, That was your tax proposal. Yeah, you got it done. And it’s…uh…The economy is busted. Let me finish–
Not lower taxes for the American people.
[uttered something]
Half of the companies–
Hardly any companies have poured in [uttered something]
Look– ā¦ we inherited the worst recession, short of a depression in American history. I was asked to bring it back. We were able to have an economic recovery that created the jobs youāre talking about. We handed him a booming economy, he blew it. He blew it.
Yeah, well, because, what he did, even before Covid, manufacturing went in the hole. Manufacturing went in the hole. Number one. And number two, number three
No. This guy is something.
[uttered something]
I’m the guy that brought back the automobile industry. We brought back. I was asked to bring back Chrystler and General Motors, we brought em back right here in the state of Ohio and Michigan. He blew it, they’re gone. He blew it. And in fact they’re gone-
That is not true Not That did not happen. And so, you take a look at what he’s actually done. He’s done very little.
His trade deals are the same way. He talks about these great trade deals. You know, he talks about the art of the deal. China’s made–perfected the art of the steal. We have a higher defecit with China now than we did before. We have the highest defi-trade deficit with Mexico.
[utters something] Simply not true. Not true.
That is not true. That is not true. None of that is true. None of that is true.
None of that is true. It’s totally discredited totally discredited, and by the way– That is not true. But my son–
There’s not a fact. It’s been totally discr-edited [uttered something]. My son–
did nothing wrong in Barisma, and The only guy that He doesn’t want to let me answer because he knows I have the truth. He–his position has been totally thoroughly discredited. By everybody–well, by the media, by our allies-by the World Bank, by evr- By everyone–has discredited it. As a matter of fact, even the people Who testified under oath. [uttered something] Even the people under-
He testified. Testified. ā¦ testified under oath in his administration said I did my job and I did it very well. I did it honorably. Everyo-well, I’ll give you the list of the people who testified. I’m sure you’ve already fired most
of them because they did a good job. Well, here’s Well, it’s hard to get any word in with this clown. Excuse me, this person. That is simply not true.
He didn’t–look, here’s the deal, we want to talk about families and ethics, I don’t want to do that, I mean, his family, we could talk about all night. His family’s already–
And that’s such a– 4This is not about my family or his family it’s about your family, the American people. He doesn’t. That’s not true. It doesn’t want to talk about what you need you, the American people. It’s about you. That’s what we’re talking about here. He didn’t take that. Try to be honest
That is absolutely not true Yeah, good point.
[Laughs]
It’s about equity and equality, it’s about decency, it’s about the constitution, and we have never walked away from trying to quie-require equity for everyone, equality for the whole of America. But, we’ve never accomplished it. But, we’ve never walked away from it like he has done. It is true, the reason I got in the race is when those people close your eyes, remember what those people look like coming out of the fields carrying torches, their veins bulging, spewting, just spewing anti-semetic bile and accompanied by the Klu Klux Klan. A young woman got killed. And I asked the President what he thought, he said there were very fine people on both sides
No president’s ever said anything like that. Now, in the second. The second point I’d make to you is that when Floyd was killed, when Mr. Floyd was killed, there was a peaceful protest in front of the White House. What did he do? He came out of his bunker, had the military do use tear gas on them so he could walk across to a church and hold up a Bible. And then what happened after that? The Bishop of that very church said that it was a disgrace. The general who was with him said all he all he ever wants to do is divide people,not unite people at all. This is a president who has used everything as a dog whistle, to try to generate racists hatred, racist division. This is a man who, in fact, you talk about helping
African-Americans, one in 1000 African Americans has been killed because of the crona…coronavirus. And if he doesnāt do something quickly, by the end of the year, one in 500 will have been killed. One in 500 African Americans.
This man is as a savior of African-Americans? This man cares at all? This manās done virtually nothing. Look, the fact is that you have to look at what he’s talks about. You have to look at what he did.
And what he did has been disastrous for the African-American community.
That’s not true. I never said that
Yes, there is. Thereās sys..systemic injustice in this country, in education and work and in law enforcement
and the way in which itās enforced. But look, the vast majority of police officers are good, decent, honorable men and women. They risk their lives every day to take care of us, but there are some bad apples. And when they occur, when they find them, they have to be sorted out. They have to be held accountable.
They have to be held accountable. And what Iām going to do as President of the United States is call together an entire group of people at the White House, everything from the civil rights groups, to the police officers, to the police chiefs, and weāre going to work this out.
Weāre going to work this out. So we changed the way in which we have more transparency, in when these things happen. These cops arenāt happy to see what happened to George Floyd. These cops arenāt happy to see what happened to Breonna Taylor. Most donāt like it,
but we have to have a system where people are held accountable whenā¦ And by the way, violence in response is never appropriate, never appropriate. Peaceful protest is, violence is never appropriate.
That is not peaceful protest. I did not say that
[uttered something]
Nobodyās doing that. Heās the racist.
Hereās the deal. I know a lot more about this-
The fact is that there is racial insensitivity. People have to be made aware of what other people feel like, what insults them, what is demeaning to them. Itās important people know. Many people donāt want to hurt other peopleās feelings, but it makes a big difference. It makes a gigantic difference in the way a child is able to grow up and have a sense of self-esteem. Itās a little bit like how this guy and his friends look down on so many people. They look down their nose on people like Irish Catholics, like me, who grow up in Scranton. They look down on people who donāt have money. They look down on people who are of a different faith. They looked down on people who are a different color. In fact, weāre all Americans. The only way weāre going to bring this country together is bring everybody together. Thereās nothing we cannot do, if we do it together.
We can take this on and we can defeat racism in American.
Oh my Lord. This is ridiculous Absolutely ridiculous
violent crime Iām in favor of law. You follow, and a little bit of order. Of course everyone’s in favor of law and order. Law and order with justice, where people get treated fairly And the fact of the matter is, crime went down seventeed–fifteen percent in our administration. It’s gone up on his watch.
Republican cities. Republic- 6 [uttered something]
We would run it the way suburbs He wouldnāt know a suburb unless you took a wrong turn. I was raised in the suburbs.
This is not 1950
All these dog whistles and racism donāt work anymore. Suburbs are by and large integrated. Thereās many people today driving their kids to soccer practice and/or black and white and Hispanic in the same car as there have been any time in the past,
what really is a threat to the suburbs and their safety is his failure to deal with COVID. Theyāre dying in the suburbs. His failure to deal with the environment, theyāre being flooded, theyāre being burned out because his refusal to do anything. Thatās why the suburbs are in trouble.
[uttered something]
Look, what I support are the police having the opportunity to deal with the problems they face and Iām totally opposed to defunding the police offices. As a matter of fact police, local police, the only one defunding in his budget calls for a $400 million cut in local law enforcement assistance. They need more assistance. They need when they show up for a 9-11 call to have someone with them as a psychologist or psychiatrist to keep them from having to use force and be able to talk people down.
We have to have community policing like we had before where the officers get to know the people in the communities. Thatās when crime went down, it didnāt go up. It went down. And so we have to beā¦
That is not true. Look, that’s not true. Not true.
Look, we don’t have time to do anything except [uttered something]
[uttered something]
I donāt hold public office. Now I am a former vice president. Iāve made it clear. Iāve made it clear in my public statements that the violence should be prosecuted. It should be prosecuted and anyone who committed it should be prosecuted.
They can in fact take care of it if he just stay out of the way.
Here’s the thing”
And by the way, his own former spokesperson said,
And by the way his own former spokesperson said, āRiots and chaos and violence help he cause.ā 3 I do 5 I think it–Kelly Anne Conway. She said that. And so, here’s the point. The point is that.
That’s what he is keeps trying to rile everything up. He doesn’t He doesnāt want to calm things down instead of going in and talking to people and saying, āLetās get everybody together. Figure out how to deal with this.ā Whatās he do? He just pours gasoline in the fire constantly and every single solitary time.
Do it.
Say it, do it. Say it. Proud Boys
[Laughed] Heās own FBI Director said unlike white supremacist, Antifa is an idea not an organization, not a militia-
That’s what HIS FBI-
His FBI director said 6 Every body in your administration tells you the truth is a bad idea. You have no idea about anything.
[uttered something]
Under this president, we become weaker, sicker, poor, more divided and more violent. When I was vice president, we inherited a recession. I was asked to fix it. I did. We left him a booming economy and he caused the recession. With regard to being weaker, the fact is that Iāve gone head to head with Putin and made it clear to him weāre not going to take any of his stuff.
Heās Putinās puppy. He still refuses to even say anything to Putin about the bounty on the heads of American soldiers. By the way, my son
He never keeps his word.
Can you get back 30 seconds? So thirdly, weāre poor. The billionaires have gotten much more wealthy by a tune of over $3- $400 billion more just since COVID.
You in the home, you got less youāre in more trouble than you were before. In terms of being more violent. When we were in office there were 15% less violence in America than there is today. Heās President United States. Itās on his watch. And with regard to more divided the nation, it canāt stay divided. We canāt be this way. And speaking of my son, the way you talk about the military, the way you talk about them being losers and being and and and just being suckers. My son was in Iraq. He spent a year there. He got the Brown Star. He got the Conspicuous Service Medal. He was not a loser. He was a Patriot and the people left behind
there were heroes. And I resent-
Iām talking about my son, Beau Biden, youāre talking about Hunter?
He was not dishonorably discharged.
Not true That is simply not true My son, my son, like a lot of people at home had a drug problem. Heās overtaking it. Heās fixed it. Heās worked on it. And Iām proud of him, Iām proud of my son. But he wasn’t given tens of millions of dollars, that was totally discre-
Totally discredited. Totally discredited. So do I
That is not true. That report is totally discredited Mitt Romney on that committee said it wasnāt worth taxpayerās money. That report was written for political reason. So would I.
Heās absolutely wrong, number one. Number two, if in fact, during our administration in the recovery act, I was in charge able to bring down the cost of renewable energy to cheaper than are as cheap as coal and gas and oil. Nobodyās going to build another coal fired plant in America. No oneās going to build another uh uh coal fire plant in America. Theyāre going to move to renewable energy. Number one, number two, weāre going to make sure that we are able to take the federal fleet and turn it into a fleet thatās run on their electric vehicles.
Making sure that we can do that, weāre going to put 500,000 charging stations in all of the highways that weāre going to be building in the future. Weāre going to build a economy that in fact is going to provide for the ability of us to take 4 million buildings and make sure that they
in fact are weatherized in a way that in fact will theyāll emit significantly less gas and oil because the heat will not be going out. Thereās so many things that we can do now to create thousands and thousands of jobs. We can get to net zero, in terms of energy production, by 2035. Not only not costing people jobs, creating jobs, creating millions of good-paying jobs. Not 15 bucks an hour, but prevailing wage, by having a new infrastructure that in fact, is green. And the first thing I will do, I will rejoin the Paris Accord. I will join the Paris Accord because with us out of it, look whatās happening. Itās all falling apart. And talk about someone who has no relationship with foreign policy. The rainforests of Brazil are being torn down, are being ripped down. More carbon is absorbed in that rainforest than every bit of carbon thatās emitted in the United States.
Instead of doing something about that, I would be gathering up and making sure we had the countries of the world coming up with $20 billion, and say, āHereās $20 billion. Stop, stop tearing down the forest. And If you donāt, then youāre going to have significant economic consequences. Well he hadn’t drawn a line, he
He wants to make sure that methaneās not a problem. You can now emit more methane without it being a problem. Methane. This is a guy who says that you donāt have to have mileage standards for automobiles that exist now. This is the guy who says that,
Itās all true. And hereās the deal-
Iām talking about the Biden plan
No.
That is not-
Not true-
Not true
Not true
That is simply not the case-
What itās going to do, itās going to create thousands and millions of jobs. Good paying jobs. He doesn’t know how to do that. The fact is, itās going to create millions of good paying jobs, and these tax incentives for people to weatherize, which he wants to get rid of.
Itās going to make the economy much safer. Look how much weāre paying now to deal with the hurricanes, deal withā¦ By the way, he has an answer for hurricanes. He said, maybe we should drop a nuclear weapon on them, and they may- Yeah he did say that Here’s the deal
ā¦ weāre going to be in a position where we can create hard, hard, good jobs by making sure the environment is clean, and we all are in better shape. We spend billions of dollars now, billions of dollars, on floods, hurricanes, rising seas. Weāre in real trouble. Look whatās happened just in the Midwest with these storms that come through and wipe out entire sections and counties in Iowa. They didnāt happen before. Theyāre because of global warming. We make up 15% of the worldās problem. But the rest of the world, weāve got to get them to come along. Thatās why we have to get back into the Paris Accord.
for forty seven-
That is not my plan The Green New Deal is not my plan. [uttered something]
That is not true. I-did not say that. Play it
The final question is, I canāt remember which of all his rantings
[uttered something]
The economy…
The Green New Deal will pay for itself as we move forward. Weāre not going to build plants that, in fact, are great
Pardon me?
No, I don’t support it. I support the Biden Plan I support the Biden Plan that I put forward. The Biden Plan, which is different than what he calls the radical Green New Deal
Prepare to let people vote. They should go to iwillvote.com, decide how theyāre going to vote, when theyāre going to vote, and what means by which theyāre going to vote. His own Homeland Security director, and as well as the FBI director, says that there is no evidence at all that mail-in ballots are a source of being manipulated and cheating. They said that. The fact is that here are going to be millions of people because of COVID that are going to be voting by mail-in ballots like he does, by the way. He sits behind the Resolute Desk and sends his ballot to Florida, number one. Number two, weāre going to make sure that those people who want to vote in person are able to vote because there are enough poll watchers are there to make sure they can socially distance. The polls are open on time, and the polls stay open until the votes are counted. And this is all about trying to dissuade people from voting because heās trying to confu- to scare people into thinking that itās not going to be legitimate. Show up and vote. You will determine the outcome of this election. Vote, vote, vote. If youāre able to vote early in your state, vote early. If youāre able to vote in person, vote in person.
Vote whatever way is the best way for you, because you willā¦ He cannot stop you from being able to determine the outcome of this election. And in terms of whether or notā¦ When the votes are counted and theyāre all counted, that will be accepted. If I win, that will be accepted. If I lose, thatāll be accepted. But by the way, if in fact he says, heās not sure what heās going to accept. Well, let me tell you something, it doesnāt matter, because if we get the votes, itās going to be all over. Heās going to go. He canāt stay in power. It wonāt happen. It wonāt happen
So vote. Just make sure you understand, you have it in your control to determine what this country is going to look like the next four years. Is it going to change, or are you going to get four more years of these lies?
There is no…no. There is no evidence for that. There is no evidence to that. In five states, we had…Five states have had mail-in ballots for the last decade or more. Five, including two Republican states. And you donāt have to solicit the ballot. Itās sent to you. Itās sent to your home. What theyāre saying is that it has to be a postmark by the time, by electiond day. If it dodent’ get in by the 7th, 8th, 9th, it still should be counted. He’s just afraid of counting the votes
I’m concerned that any court would settle this because because hereās the deal. When you m-m-when you get a ballot and you fill it out, youāre supposed to have an affidavit. If you didnāt know, you have someone say that, this is me. You should be able to, if in fact you can verify thatās you before the ballot is thrown out, thatās sufficient to be able to count the ballot because someone made a mistake and not dotting the correct I. Who they voted for, testify, say who they voted for, say itās you. That is totally legitimate. [uttered something]
[uttered something] Yes
Yes. And hereās the deal. We count the ballots, as you pointed out. Some of these ballots in some states canāt even be opened until election day. And if thereās thousands of ballots, itās going to take time to do it. And by the way, our militaryā¦ Theyāve been voting by ballots since the end of the Civil War, in effect. And thatās whatās going to happen. Why is it, for them, somehow not fraudulent. Itās the same process. Itās honest. No one has established at all that there is fraud related to mail-in ballots, that somehow itās a fraudulent process.
He has no idea what heās talking about. Hereās the deal. The fact is, I will accept it, and he will too. You know why? Because once the winner is declared after all the ballots are counted, all the votes are counted, thatāll be the end of it. Thatāll be the end of it. And if itās me, in fact, fine. If itās not me, Iāll support the outcome. And Iāll be a president, not just for the Democrats. Iāll be a president for Democrats and Republicans. And this guy-
What Did His Words Amount To?
Former Vice President Joe Biden spoke a total of 6,915 words.
- 2,803 of his words, or approximately 41% of what JB said was a policy attack against President Donald Trump.
- 986 of his words, or approximately 14% of what JB said was a personal attack against the President.
- 347 of his words, or approximately .05% of what JB said was about his record.
- 1085 of his words, or approximately 16% of what JB said was a statement about his policies.
- 692 of his words, or approximately 2% of what JB said was a personal value or belief statement.
- I think it’s also important to note that almost 27% of what JB said in the debate did not add to the debate because it did not declare any policies, records, personal values, or even attacks.
To Sum Up His Policy Statements
