Scott talks with elected DNC member Christine Pelosi about the Trump Administration's failure to adequately respond to the pandemic. They spoke about the Heroes Act coronavirus relief package Speaker Pelosi passed in May which Senate Majority leader "Moscow" Mitch McConnell and Donald Trump refused to pass before the election. They also spoke about her book “The Nancy Pelosi Way." You can find the book at Barnes & Noble and Amazon.
"Donald Trump's theory of the case is that he would be cruising to reelection," says Christine Pelosi. "As he told the people of Erie, Pennsylvania, he wouldn't have even been there campaigning asking them for their vote we're at not for COVID. So he says his theory is 'look, but for COVID I did a great job as president.' The facts say otherwise. Even, if you accept that theory, then you would have to say, 'Well, then. Why didn't you handle COVID better?'"
"We learned from Bob Woodward's tapes and recordings with the president that the president said he played down the dangers of the virus publicly," explained Pelosi, "including the fact that it was airborne. Very early on because he didn't want to put the American people into a panic. He didn't want to risk the economy. As it turns out he was risking the economy and people's lives. And so the second thing we learned was that when Jared Kushner - who has no government experience and no public health experience and no public health advocacy experience - decided that he was going to be in charge."
