R.J.B. Thank you very much. I am Chris Cuomo and welcome to Primetime. We've got 64 days

0:05.9

until Election Day. And I don't think that we have had a more dangerous period in our recent

0:13.1

history. It's time to come together to understand the facts and for you to make the choices that

0:18.2

will set our course ahead. The country is in the grip of two crises. Neither one is under control.

0:25.4

Coronavirus continues to spread. Now our kids are back in school in different ways and different

0:32.9

places almost everywhere without the kind of testing we need to track, to trace, and to keep them

0:40.8

and their families safe. The president continues to ignore this health crisis. He instead sees

0:47.5

advantage in focusing on the violence around the country. But here too, he is ignoring the real illness

0:54.0

of systemic inequality. Instead blaming his opponent and anyone and anything else he can

1:00.3

1:27.8

fed lies about America being a wicked nation plagued by racism. Now again, I don't know who's writing

1:35.7

this stuff for him. You can see he's reading. You can see he's not all that familiar with the material

1:40.4

but he likes its intent. And those people too are complicit in passing messages they know are not

1:47.1

just wrong but wrong for the country. Systemic inequality is real. You know it. I know it.

1:54.3

We see it in our schools, our lending, our courts, our prisons, and our morgues. This president knows

2:02.0

it too. Of course, all Americans are not racist. No one should say that because it's not the truth.

2:09.4

And remember, our country was designed to be able to defeat inequality like this and uniquely so.

2:17.3

So why would this president lie about the reality? It seems this is just about scaring his base

2:25.2

enough to win the election. And I have to tell you, whatever the polls say, it may work.
