many times we have gone into the issue, economic stimulus is one thing an improvement on the virus front and eradicating it is another thing. today a very big thing. that will do it here. here comes "the five." >> dana: hello, everyone. i am dana perino with jesse watters, juan williams, greg gutfeld and dagen mcdowell. it's 5:00 in new york city and this is "the five." the president making an announcement moments ago at a white house event saying that he has been taking hydroxychloroquine for about a week and a half now. >> the front line workers, many, many are taking it. i happen to be taking it. i happen to be taking it. hydroxychloroquine. >> reporter: to the

white house doctor recommend you take it? speak with a white house doctor did recommend grady said would you like it? i'd like to take it. i would like the people of this nation to feel good. i don't want them being sick and there's a very good chance this has an impact so i'm taking it. the zinc and the hydroxy. all i can tell you is sophia i seem to be okay. >> dana: the president adding that he's had no symptoms for coronavirus and is taking the drug for precautionary measures. news breaking recently. greg, let me go to you because you cover this. you've talked about this drug for many weeks. we all read about it. hopes and controversies about it and now the president dropping the snooze into the news cycle at about 4:30 this afternoon. >> greg: i love it when he says very casually, yeah, i'm taking it. i would've told you sooner but you didn't ask.

the most transparent president ever. it's important to note that his explanation was equitably nuanced. it is about who you give it to and when. he is correct, there are a lot of people taking it who know what they are doing. i've talked to doctors, many people you know when they were talking about as a prophylactic two months ago. he was dead on about the last study which the media glommed onto because they wanted the drug to be a failure because they wanted that drug to fail so they cited a study in which the drug was given to people essentially near death. you couldn't tell what was going to happen, if it was too late. when you get this drug, the people who couldn't tolerate it, you can't have any kind of heart condition or arrhythmias. you can take it prophylactically and its fda approved, it's been around for decades. it's one of those things, if it's available to you and you can take it, you can do it.

that's a prudent way of looking at it. >> dana: dagen, there was an fda warning about greg was talking about, if you have any sort of heart condition, you shouldn't take it. i don't have a fda document front of me but there are people who have conditions like lupus that take this drug because it does help them, it's proven to help them. and they need the drug. a run on this drug by people who are trying to prevent getting coronavirus when we know that actually washing your hands and not touching your face is probably the best way, there is are concerned by people who have lupus that if there is a run on this drug, doctors are being pressured to prescribe it to people who don't necessarily need it yet -- i'm not saying people shouldn't take it. i'm not saying that it all but there is a concern by those who are actually sick. >> dagen: right. if you're not sick and your doctor tells you know, don't take it, please listen to your doctor. leavitt took president trump to do a giant cannonball into the

news cycle. we got this incredible news on the vaccine from moderna that they announced early this morning. that's why the market was up so much. the immune response, some of the healthy volunteers who are vaccinated in the clinical study, it was induced. they had a healthy response to it. this is one of the first vaccines that we are going to hear about. moderna and pfizer are working on vaccines, johnson & johnson just to name a few. this is what would have dominated the new cycle. in terms of hydroxychloroquine, there have been some observational studies about it on there was one that was done in new york city not long ago, a few weeks ago. it basically found no impact from the drug, i'll find it. there was no impact on people

who were sick, not positive and not negative. we are waiting for longer-term trials to come out. >> dana: the news about the moderna vaccine broke before the markets open today, juan, and it was one of them reasons, i don't know where it finished but it was about a thousand point up, the market. good news on that vaccine that could possibly be available for emergency use by fall, if everything goes well, to caveat that. this debate about hydroxychloroquine somehow became a red versus blue issue. i can't imagine this is not going to stir that up again. what do you think? >> juan: i don't know about red versus blue, but i think it's a trump issue. it's all about him. what's interesting to me in this breaking news is i guess he's worried about getting sick and more so than i might have appreciated, if he has been taking this for a week and a half. that would even be before there was concern about vice president pence and then

there was one of his aides and of course the vice president's press secretary. who tested positive. the vice president self isolated because of his association with his press secretary. i think the president is worried, and we know as jesse likes to remind me, that the president is a germaphobe, but he didn't wear the mask. i don't know about hand washing. somebody told me the other day that even now the white house mess is closed. i think dana, you would appreciate that's pretty severe for people who work at the white house. you have t to do takeout. i think there's a sense with the white house that things are maybe more severe than the president likes to tell the american people in terms of worrying about this pandemic. to pick up on what dagen was talking about, there's good news about the vaccine but if you look at the big hospital studies about the use of hydroxychloroquine in new york city, if you look at

the va study, academic studies, everyone says there's no evidence this is going to have an impact, positive impact, that it has real efficacy in terms of preventing you from getting the disease but apparently the president believes his own spin. you're not getting it from any government or academic authori authority. >> dana: i'm not saying anecdotal evidence is everything but anecdotal evidence does exist where some people say if they weren't severely sick and they took it, it did help them get back. the president says that he asked the doctor and the doctor said okay, we can try it, you're okay to try it. we do know one thing, the white house medical doctors are responsible to make sure that the president is in the best health possible because he's the leader of the free world and the commander in chief. before everybody runs away with this, i guess -- i do think the doctor saying we can do it, we should have some confidence in

them. >> jesse: juan is acting like the president just announced he was making meth in the east wi wing. this is not some radical cocktail. the president being like i'll take some uppers, some downers, may be a shot or two. juan, the doctor of the white house prescribe this. it's under the administration -- go >> juan: wait, wait. he said he could do it. >> jesse: he administered it. what's the difference. he didn't go to cvs to get it? you are splitting hairs. if the president asks the doctor and the doctor says he asked, than what's wrong with that. everybody's acting like you should've seen the media when he made the announcement, it was like when your daughter comes home from college and i dinner, she's like yeah, i'm pregnant. and it's like the parents are like whoa, what?

you have been home for a week and now you tell me? come on. antimalarial drug that people take all over the world, it's been taken for 40 to 60 years. it works for some and doesn't work for others. i think we are making a little bit too big of a deal out of this, like we always do when it comes to hydroxychloroquine. i don't understand why it has been politicized like it has. >> dana: all right, good talk. straight ahead, the war of words heats up between former president obama and president trump. find out what set that off next. challenging it is right now.

was so impressed. i think jesse and i were both impressed by the guns on that guy standing in front of the gym. >> greg: did you see pete hegseth? the whole point of this segment was so he could go there and where a tight t-shirt. >> dana: [laughs] >> juan: i've got to pick that up. okay. greg, when i was going to ask about was the poll numbers that say gallup has 58% of americans saying they are yes when it comes to completely isolating themselves, a harris poll has 60% saying that if we go with a quick response, they fear the virus will spread. so it's like yeah, there are some loud people who are in the minority but most americans seem to be worried about protecting themselves and their families. >> greg: all right, once again you are presenting the prison of two ideas in the sense of the questioning being flawed. any time you frame a question with a negative in it, people

are going to go for the positive. would you like to go back early and potentially die? oh, no. so that means you'd rather stay indefinitely. the questions are framed in a way to get the answer. i would not call those people a few loud people. they are people that actually want to get back to work. they are adults. they should be allowed the chance. a gallup poll, i love this poll that found americans are happier than they have bent over the past year. this is interesting because it speaks to the american optimism that we know a comeback is coming and it's going to be even bigger because our country is rested and ready. i have a feeling the economy is going to be like a giant roaring beasts going to be awakened after a drug hibernation and so we should be helping people and remember they are wearing masks. they are washing hands. i do know how they are going to do the gym but we can't say you're going to cause people to die. let's do a poll on that.

your engineering the answer that you want. >> juan: all right. jesse, i don't want you to take off your jacket, we know you have guns. but i'm struck by the idea that i don't hear about any major corporations with mostly white-collar workers telling people to come back yet. what do you think? >> jesse: because those jobs are in manhattan. those people are probably in the hamptons working remotely. that's why, juan. this is obvious stuff. these people are middle-class people that want to work and they have to go to work out and they have to open their business. i am jealous, yes, loves that that guys guns but i'm not going to tell him he can open and the guy that was supposed to have two enforce the order, the police officer, i thought handled it perfectly. police officers aren't under an obligation to enforce an

unconstitutional order. you can let people off with a warning, and that's kind of what he did. he didn't throw cuffs on the guy with the 50-inch biceps. he let him off with a warning. he walked away. he showed that this thing, it's not the civil rights movement, okay? this is about working out at a gym. i think it's okay for people to do that and that and advocates okay for people to have a beer on the street. de blasio saying he's going to throw fencing to the beaches. do you think you're going to keep new yorkers in june off the beach with a fence? they are going to blow right through the border wall, juan, and we are going to cover the whole thing. de blasio saying he's going to pull people out of the water? mayor, how about you go out of the water and pull people out? i don't think the nypd is going to do that.

trying to fact-check. >> jesse: they added the antibody testing to the overall numbers. that's how they got it. >> dana: thank you. i couldn't remember. i read it at 6:00 in the morning and i knew there was something to it. i think when it comes to people that want to open their business and police officers that are asked to go knock on their door that there is something that americans have a lot of, the mature ones, which is discretion and initiative. the discretion is should i put these people in handcuffs? no. because the police officers, they are your neighbors. they are the people that you see in the grocery store. he probably knew some of those folks and he was going to put them in jail but he does have to say look, it's against the governor's order. i hope everybody stays safe. people have to use a little bit of common sense. we know that it was a dramatic thing that we did to shut down the economy, to tell people they couldn't work. now you have people in record

numbers telling food pantry lines. i hope everybody is supporting their local food pantry because they absolutely need it. think of the people who for the first time are having to go in that line. provide a little grace to people, little discretion. when it comes to something like de blasio, my last point would be if you're going to say things like that, it has to be backed up by some sort of data or explanation. you can't just go out and say dial 311 and call on your neighbors and tell on them. what is the goal we are trying to reach? do we -- we are supposed to flatten the curve and we have done that. even governor cuomo today said that in new york he thinks that by the middle of june things will look a lot better and he's looking at relaxing some more things as long as the case numbers continue to come down. >> juan: so dagen, i know you're very athletic. i wonder if you would be comfortable going back into a gym and do you plan to go swimming this memorial day weekend? >> dagen: i don't like people so i don't go to pools and i don't go to jim's. i do run outside and i keep my

distance from people. by the way, i saw a wonderful group of young men who scaled a semipermanent chain-link fence to get onto a basketball court over the weekend. i was going to take a video of them. i give them a clap, i was like good for y'all. i was going to take a video and then i remembered snitches get stitches. two quick things. nobody trusts governor cuomo governor cuomo and de blasio anymore. i think more new yorkers don't think they know what they are doing. cuomo and his death commissioner said covid positive elderly people back into nursing homes. that went on for weeks. people dying, and de blasio is as effective as of possum which is actually an insult of possums. small business owners, 85% of which will not get money from the paycheck protection program are not going to sit by and watch their businesses evaporate, disintegrate, and die on the vine when the big retailers get to stay open. they are going to be settling

fire back. >> i think he was an incompetent president. i think president obama was one of the worst presidents in the history of our country. i think he was incompetent president. >> jesse: dagen mcdowell, do you think barack obama is obsessed with president trump. >> dagen: just a little maybe. president obama was being so passive-aggressive. he didn't even name president trump. that's like picking a fight with somebody in a parking lot by shoving him from behind and then running and going and hiding behind that dumpster outback. that being said, president obama was speaking to historically black colleges and universities graduates this year and that's a real trouble spot for the democrats. it was back in 2016 where there were 4.4 million obama voters from 2012 who stayed at home in

2016. michelle obama in that documentary "becoming," herself that it was painful to sit on that stage the day i left the white house and that a lot of our folks didn't vote. it was almost a slap in the face. that's what he's trying to do. trying to make sure those people go out and vote for biden in november. >> jesse: actually got into a fight in a parking lot in high school. he didn't go well for me and i'm going to leave it. mr. gutfeld, what do you think about these two presidents going after each other in the middle of a pandemic. >> greg: it is never a surprise with trump. what obama delivered is blue meat for the media. the media loves this self-righteous inferiority. so much better and so much better but were not, give you any plans or suggestions. how about the pandemic playbook?

that was hilarious. in this next phase, you need to eliminate distractions and that means speaking critically about the future and stop criticizing the past. we are going to make mistakes in this process and as long as we correct them quickly, we can all be on the same team. left, right, center, you name it. the moment you return to the past, point your finger without offering solutions, your cut from the team. obama just got cut from the team. he is a big whiny cranberry. >> jesse: wow. barack obama just got cut. >> greg: i have never cut anyone from a team. i'm usually the one who gets c cut. >> jesse: juan, do you think barack obama is bitter because trump shorted his legacy and has exposed him as corrupt with the spygate drama? >> juan: wow.

i don't think that's the case but i will let you stay there in your own fantasyland. i didn't even think what greg said was right. what happened, mitch mcconnel mitch mcconnell, senate majority leader, had this idea that obama didn't leave any kind of plan for a pandemic. and then had to walk back and say that was not right. i was wrong. >> greg: did you see that? >> jesse: did you see the plan? it was hilarious. >> juan: everyone has seen the plan. what you hear from the fact-checkers is this is on fire, this misleading claim from the trump administration where's the trump plan? that's the bigger issue. >> greg: we are seeing it. >> juan: no leadership coming from this president, ignoring the cdc.

>> greg: he killed all those people in nursing homes, right, juan? your hero, cuomo did that. >> juan: we don't know how obama would've dealt with this. >> greg: exactly. >> juan: his personality, more low-key, i think he would've been more trusted. >> greg: personalities. >> jesse: okay. don't ever cite fact-checkers on the show, juan. their fact-checking record is atrocious. dana, what you think about the kind of historical significance? do these things happen when x presidents go after, you know, their predecessors like this? does this happen? >> dana: well, i guess it depends. jimmy carter was never really quiet. 41 very much was and 43 tried to follow his father's leg. president obama went after 43 all the time. the one time president bush was

hoping -- back when the obama administration was thinking about prosecuting interrogators. that wasn't about 43 personally. that was more about doing the right thing in protecting people asked to do really hard things. president obama has been fairly quiet. i would say after being called a criminal all weekend, his shot in the middle of a commencement address was maybe a little mild. we are all missing the point. every time we are not talking about joe biden means that somebody else is filling out a vacuum. i know that president obama would love to try to fight this for biden because he's not landing any blows himself. joe biden has to win this on his own. i'm sure if obama thinks he had been the candidate instead of hillary clinton he would have beat president trump. keep your eye on the ball. this is about the candidate is going to beat joe biden. it's not going to be obama. i think president obama is showing he's probably going to campaign in a very different way than former presidents have in

but i think what joe is going to have to do. he's beginning to move in that direction. if the cash stated those working-class people, young people, minorities, say i underd your position. >> dagen: dana, i watched you earlier in the day and you said right now it's go time. >> dana: yeah. there's a saying in politics that presidential campaigns are lost or won in the late spring or early summer and we are right in that sweet spot right now. i remember something greg said a week or so ago. he didn't know any biden supporters. he knew plenty of biden voters. bernie actually has supporters but they are not necessarily going to be biden voters. so they do have something to do with air. i would want to just comment quickly about the republican battleground states where you have republicans concerned. some of these races are going to be very, very tight. let's go back to 2016.

senators were on the ballot and stuck with president trump were able to win. rubio, to me, johnson. senators who distance themselves from president trump because they were worried lost. so if you're thinking that president trump could actually win within five or lose within five. if he is within five, sticking with him makes a lot of sense because you can ride that turn out. if you think is going to lose by more than five there's probably not a lot you can do anyway and you have to make a decision on what's more important: republican unity or trying to save your own skin and losing anyway. >> dagen: juan. >> juan: well, i think there's a lot of people in the trump camp who are pushing this idea to split between the democrats because they see that as good news for them. the reality is that there are some people in the bernie camp, about 15% according to polls, who wanted a revolution. they don't want a moderate

establishment candidate like joe biden. that's very different from most democratic voters who gave biden denomination. keep in mind that bernie sanders is going to campaign for joe biden. one last point, the relationship between joe biden and bernie sanders is so much better than the relationship between hillary clinton and bernie sanders. which was just, you know acrimonious. let me use that word. acrimonious. and did not lend itself to bernie supporters throwing their votes behind hillary. >> dagen: jesse, those grudge voters, people who voted for birdie in the spring and voted for trump in the fall, michigan, wisconsin. 216,000 people flip for trump and you know what, that was doubled the margin of victory for trump in those states. >> jesse: i met a couple of those flip floppers in my elevator a couple months ago.

they are fascinating people. they just got screwed over by the establishment, by the dnc, they would rather go with trump then joe biden or hillary or whoever they are going to put up there because they are not what they are looking for. joe is going to get pulled to the left and he still want to get those 15% die-hard bernie bros and that's just a shame. joe should stay in the middle and fight for what he's always been about. he is too soft and not strong enough to consolidate the base. it is a base election. it's going to be about turnout and right now trump voters are twice as enthusiastic as biden supporters. that's not good in a tight race. >> greg: the media has already picked their choice for president, and that is stacey abrams. there are glowing portraits of her. it's beautiful. they are basically saying don't worry about biden. she will be president because he

will last a couple months. i believe that this could be a blowout for trump if the recovery explodes as predicted. or it could be a blowout for biden if the virus returns in full force. so for biden to win, you need really bad news. so if i were a democrat, i would be rooting for trump because then that means everybody is going to have a good summer, strong summer, healthy fall and less people will be sick. why not just support trump because you know that means good news. if you want biden to win. >> jesse: all democrats and republicans should support trump. >> greg: did you notice that subtle? >> jesse: great analysis. >> juan: i noticed.

♪ >> greg: with the news broke that fred willard died, someone tweeted that he was the most naturally funny person evan. that comment struck me as hyperbole but then i started thinking maybe that was right. i came upon willard on a show

that became america tonight. he remains one of the great surreal comedic experiments. a fake show with bogus guests, disgruntled bandleader and lurid back stories. it sounds like "the view." it was a wreck largely due to its cohost played by willard who invented a new kind of external interior dialog, stream of conscious software journeys and idiocy. like the cheerful guy who students next to you on the bus and tells you his sociopathic desires in between humming show tunes. willard showed you the banality of evil and made it hilarious. he went on to movie chain, spinal tap, best in show, a mighty wind, playing the same character over and over, and 88. when i was editor of a magazine, we invited fred to be a guest editor. normally it's a publicity ploy. you do it to get free media for the magazine and the star. no celebrity ever edits a thing.

maybe they drop by the office and take a picture but they want nothing to do with us lowly scrubs. not fred. we had to send him all the pages and he read every single one of them and made notes on every single page. they were genuinely helpful, super hilarious, and 100% fred. we ended up running his comments all over the magazine they were that great. the fact is you have to be supersmart to play dumb so good, and man, he was the best. r.i.p. dagen, you are a fan. you have to go to youtube to find old shows. >> dagen: that's what i will be doing for the next several days. the hallmark of great comedic actor and a great comedian is you can just think about their acting and debates they did and laugh about them. when i was walking in here to give it away you are going through a bit and i was crying.

that's how good fred willard was. >> greg: he was amazing. i'm not even going to say -- jesse, every time fred willard begins a sentence, you never have an idea where it's going and that's why he kind of reminds me of you. >> jesse: [laughs] i'm glad you said that because when i used to do the "watters' world" on the streets, i would channel my inner fred willard sometimes and i think you're right, takes a very smart person to play someone so dumb so you're right. and thank you, fred, for being the guiding light with regard to that character. >> greg: juan, were you a fan of willard? >> juan: you know what i like to come he was an anchorman with will ferrell i think that he was the news director. so we are a little in the news business and we like to make fun of the bosses. he was kind of like a schlump.

>> jesse: i don't. what are you talking about? >> greg: dana, i gather you must have seen "best in show." >> dana: my only comment is i would say i have a great memory for a lot of things but not for movies generally. but i can remember exactly where i was when i saw "best in show," how hard i laughed and who i was with and it was partly because his character was so lovable and i would watch that again and again and i think i might do it this week. "fernwood," i only watched a couple on your recommendation. >> greg: it was twisted and wrong. "one more thing" is up next. you're clearly someone who takes care of yourself. so when it comes to screening for colon cancer, don't wait. because when caught early, it's more treatable. i'm cologuard. i'm noninvasive and detect altered dna in your stool to find 92% of colon cancers...

...even in early stages. tell me more. it's for people 45 plus at average risk for colon cancer, not high risk. false positive and negative results may occur. ask your prescriber if cologuard is right for you. i'm on it. that's a step in the right direction.

well, see this handsome man, his name was william. and william fell in love with rose and they had a kid. his name was charles and charles met martha...

isn't she pretty? yeah. i came across sofi and it was the best decision of my life. we're getting a super competitive interest rate on our money. we're able to invest through the same exact platform. i got approved for a loan and it was a game-changer. truly sofi, thank you for helping me prepare for whatever the future has in store. (♪) ♪ >> all right, it's time now for

"one more thing." i just got this little bitty of a guy who's trying to get some exercise in london going down what's called the mall in london and he's got a little friend strapped to his back, writing and style, just looking around. and i thought, this might be a good thing for jesse to consider doing with ricky. really, you know, get his instagram followers up. super cute, super cute. >> don't tempt me. >> juan, your next. >> all right, thanks, dana. you've heard about bumper about some bumper cars, what about bumper people? yes, take a look at these bumpers on people, patrons, at an ocean city, maryland, bar. the bumpers come complete with their own tables, the idea is to keep customers 6 feet apart in compliance with safety guidance during the pandemic. they are really inflatable inner tubes on wheels, and that's what you're looking at, created to help bars and restaurants get going again safely and apparently ocean city's fishtail's bar and grill is having some success, as you can

see. so happy bumping as we approach memorial day. speaker happy bumping. >> an excellent p.r. move by the fishtail people. greg. >> all right, let's do this. ♪ animals are great ♪ animals are great ♪ animals are great i don't know about you, but there's nothing better than a tiny bush baby yawning. check out this little guy. i don't even know how an animal like this could exist and be that adorable. there must be something -- look at that. there must be something evil about the bush baby to be so cute. look at those little eyes! anyway. that's what i looks like when i was a kid. >> did anybody else yarn? >> it made me on. >> that made me yon. jesse, euronext. >> i know why juan did that one more thing, so he would get free

drinks at the bumping place. we saw through that ruse, williams. so during the pandemic i got into a tv show, many of you guys may have heard the show, it's called "american idol." it's a singing competition show, it's amazing. i was really pulling for this guy arthur who had the best voice of anybody competing. he lost last night, not as good as arthur's. i wouldn't say that he got robbed, but america voted, so you got to let the people decide. here he is, he did this really sweet take on -- i guess it was rod stewart's "have you ever seen the rain." listen to this guy's chops. >> ♪ i want to know ♪ have you ever seen the rain >> i mean, there hasn't been a voice i've ever heard it's as beautiful as that, so arthur, i love you. second place is okay. i'm not going to say anything

about her, she was really great though. >> jesse, you're going to owe dagan a drink. >> can i just give a shout out to the grill in my hometown? the drugstore grilled is open outside, please go there. there, that's my -- >> drugstore grilled? >> set your dvrs, here's bret baier. >> bret: let's go to the drugstore grilled. good evening, breaking tonight, president trump says he has been taking the antimalarial drug hydroxychloroquine for about a week and a half as a preventative measure against the coronavirus. the drug of course has been controversial with some studies indicating it could be dangerous, even fatal for people with heart issues. the president's announcement comes on a day when u.s. deaths surpassed the 90,000 mark. but also tonight, fresh optimism over an experimental vaccine, optimism that spilled over to a grateful wall street with the dow soaring more than 900 points
