0:00.0	Welcome to Democracy-ish. I'm Torre. And I'm Danielle Moody Mills. And we are broadcasting from a very safe social distance. I'm at my home in Brooklyn. And I'm at my home on Long Island.
0:25.7	So I haven't seen you in forever. This is weird. It's been a long time. It's kind of weird. I've had a lot of virtual dates over the past couple of days. We can do one later to R. Ray, if you'd like.
0:37.9	You've been really good at helping make sure that I am at the appropriate level of freaked
0:43.0	out. You were the one who sent me the video of Italian people speaking to themselves from
0:49.1	10 days ago, which was like, hey, you from 10 days ago, stop being stupid and buy a fucking mask.
0:57.1	Hey, you, the worst case scenario, that's going to happen.
1:01.2	Like, I was pretty freaked out.
1:04.1	And then after that, I was really freaked out.
1:06.5	And just in general, I am super scared about what's going on, partly because of the medical

2:04.2	leadership. And the fact that, I mean, you know, you hit the nail on the head yesterday in,
2:10.1	you know, what has become these daily coronavirus, I guess, press conferences, updates. I have no
2:17.4	idea. I guess an opportunity for them to lie to our updates. I have no idea. I guess an opportunity for them to lie to
2:19.6	our faces. I have no idea. But Donald Trump was asked by a reporter, you seem to have had a
2:25.3	change in tone. You seem to be taking this more seriously. And he lies and says that,
