| 0:00.0 | Hey everybody, I'm Chris Cuomo. Welcome to Prime Time. Will today be the last day that we |
| 0:07.3 | wait before fighting back against this pandemic? I say we, because after 138,000 did, this |
| 0:15.8 | president has not really moved much from his original delusion. |
| 0:21.9 | They tried the impeachment hoax. That was on a perfect conversation. And this is their |
| 0:27.6 | new hoax. We now all know that the pandemic is all too real and that the real hoax is the |
| 0:37.8 | Trump administration's alleged response. He can't wear a mask at the Resolute Desk, but |
| 0:44.7 | he can go go ya, oh boy ya, he can't help states with schools, but he has plenty of energy |

| 2:02.2 | Demand those in power do their damn jobs. How? You have to get angry about what's happening. You |
| 2:13.4 | must be outraged by the obvious. I know you are. Here's why. Good conscience will not move these |
| 2:22.6 | men and women to do the right thing for us. Okay, you see it. It has not led our leaders to less |
