  • Senator Harris and Vice President Pence.

  • Thank you for being here.

  • Let's begin with the ongoing pandemic that has cost our country so much.

  • What would a Biden administration due in January and February that a Trump administration wouldn't do?

  • The American people have witnessed what is the greatest failure of any presidential administration in the history of our country.

  • And here are the fax 210,000 dead people in our country.

  • In just the last several months, over seven million people who have contracted this disease one in five businesses, closed.

  • Our nation has gone through a very challenging time this year, but I want the American people to know from the very first day President Donald Trump has put the health of America first.

  • Before there were more than five cases in the United States, all people who had returned from China President Donald Trump did what no other American president had ever done.

  • That was, he suspended all travel from China, the second largest economy in the world.

  • How can you expect Americans to follow the administration's safety guidelines to protect themselves from co vid when you at the White House have not been doing so well.

  • The American people have demonstrated over the last eight months.

  • Then, when given the fax, they're willing to put the health of their families and their neighbors and people they don't even know.

  • First, President Trump and I have great confidence in the American people in, and their ability to take that information and put it into practice were about freedom and respecting the freedom of the American people.

  • Let's talk about respecting the American people.

  • You respect the American people when you tell them the truth.

  • You respect the American people when you have the courage to be a leader.

  • Speaking of those things that you may not want people to hear, but they need to hear so they can protect themselves.

  • If the Trump administration approves the vaccine before or after the election, should Americans take it?

  • And would you take it if the public health professionals, if Dr Fauci, if the doctors tell us that we should take it, I'll be the first in line to take it?

  • Absolutely.

  • But if Donald Trump tells us I should say that we should take it, I'm not taking it.

  • The reality is that we will have a vaccine we believe before the end of this year, and it will have the capacity to save countless American lives.

  • And your continuous undermining of confidence in the vaccine is just It's just unacceptable.

  • Do you believe, as the scientific community has concluded, that man made climate change has made wildfires bigger, hotter and more deadly and have made hurricanes wetter, slower and more damaging?

  • The climate is changing, but the issue is.

  • What's the cause on?

  • What do we do about it?

  • President Trump has made it clear that we're gonna continue to listen to the science now.

  • Joe Biden and Kamala Harris would put us back in the Paris climate accord.

  • Do you know this administration took the word science off the website and then took the phrase climate change off the website?

  • This we have seen a pattern with this administration, which is they don't believe in science.

  • And I must tell you this this this presumption that you hear consistently from Joe Biden and Kamala Harris that that America is systemically racist, that is Joe Biden said that he believes that law enforcement has an implicit bias against minorities is a great insult to the men and women who serve in law enforcement, and I want everyone to know who puts on the uniform of law enforcement.

  • Every day.

  • President Trump and I stand with you.

  • I will not sit here and be lectured by the vice president on what it means to enforce the laws of our country.

  • I am the only one on this state who was personally prosecuted everything from child sexual assaults or homicide.

  • I'm the only one on this stage was prosecuted the big banks for taking advantage of America's homeowners.

  • I'm the only one on this stage who prosecuted for profit colleges for taking advantage of our veterans.

  • I want to close tonight's debate with the question posed by Brooklyn Brown.

  • She's an eighth grader at Springville Junior High.

  • When I watch the news, all I see is arguing between Democrats and Republicans.

  • When I watch the news, all I see is citizen fighting against citizen.

  • Your examples could make all the difference to bring us together.

  • I mean, here in America, we can disagree.

  • We can debate vigorously a Senator Harris and I have on this stage tonight, but when the debate is over, we come together as Americans.

  • That's what people do in big cities and small towns all across this country.

  • So I just want to encourage you.

  • Brooklyn, I wanna tell you that, um, we're gonna work every day to have government as good as our people.

  • The American people each end every day.

  • Brooklyn.

  • When you think about the future, I do believe the future is bright and it will be because of your leadership.

  • And it will be because we fight for each person's voice through their vote.

  • And we get engaged in this election because you have the ability through your work and through eventually your vote to determine the future of our country and what its leadership looks like.

  • Thank you, Senator Harris.

  • Thank you, Vice President.

  • Pence.

  • Thank you so much for being with us tonight.

Senator Harris and Vice President Pence.
