♪ ♪ >> tucker: good evening and welcome to "tucker carlson tonight." the president of the united states walked out of walter reed militarygh hospital tonight. it was remarkable turn in a saga that has gripped the country since early friday morning. want to begin this hour with the update on the president's condition and hiswe whereabouts. wean go now to rick leventhal. >> it was around this time friday night the president arrived att walter reed army medical center to begin a course of treatment for covid-19. tonight, back in the white house to continue his recovery. you can see them walking confidently out the front door of the hospital around 6:39 p.m. wearing a suit and a mask giving

a raised fist and a thumbs up later to the press gathered outside. he climbed to the back of a black suv for the short drive to marine one on the helipad and took the quick ten minute flight to the south lawn of the white house where he then climbed the stairs outside his living quarters and saluted air force one as it departed. his doctors sound very optimisticor. >> it's been more than 72 hours since the blast fever. oxygen levels including ambulatory saturation and breathing are all normal. though he may not totally be out of the woods yet, the team and i agree that all our evaluations, most importantly his clinical status, support his safe return home where hepr will be surround by world-class medical care 24 24/7. earlier today the president tweeted "feeling really good, don't be afraid of covid, don't let it dominate your life.

we've developed some really great drugs and knowledge. i feel better than i did 20 years ago." tonight at the white house he will continue on a treatment of steroids and if his condition remains the same or improves, they will take a "final deep sigh of relief." it is about a ten day window and whenl they are thought to be contagious. the next debate is scheduled ten days from now. if th don't like it's the president's intention to debate. >> tucker: thanks, rick. you. don't need to be a trump partisan to feel good about the recovery, you just need to be a decent person. the moment you find yourself rooting for in another man's or death is the moment you need to stop immediately in your tracks, pause, and to take stock of your soul. you are the one who is sick and badly in need of health, you are rotting from within. n the media are not stopping, not even pausing. they are too angry. donald trump is alive.

they were hoping that wouldn't happen. worse, trump walked out of the hospital under his own team after just three days. 74 years old and the virus didn't really slow him down. in fact, he looks fine. these are dangerous facts. if you are allowed to think about them too much, you might draw the wrong conclusion. you might conclude that coronavirus is quite as scary as they are telling you it is. you might regret bringing up dell knocked on my giving up your constitutional rights for letting them destroy the american economyde and theon response. you might find yourself enraged that they are keeping your kids from getting an education and have for six months. and above all, you might stop believing the news media. why are we watching this? e 's not news. it's propaganda. they just caught them again. all weekend they told us donald trump was going to die. he had a pre-existing condition called "a bo to obesity."

"grotesquely overweight, his silhouette blocks the sun thanks to decades of cheeseburgers and three musketeers bars, he would never make it home alive." >> there are of course these concerns. he 73 years old, he's clinically obese. >> he has all of the risk factors that are suggestive of severe mortality. >> he's obese. >> he also had a trip to walter reed, we don't know what that's about. >> clinical obesity and high cholesterol bring them to a category of more severe response to the disease. >> it makes them five times more likely to be hospitalized. he is 90 times more likely to die than a young person. >> the president of the united states is that the hospital. diagnosed without potential deadly virus for which there is no cure. >> tucker: clinical obesity! clinical obesity! that is the single worst insult

they can imagine. that's exactly how they meant i it, as an insult. as a medical matter, being overweight is in fact a significant risk factor for dying from coronavirus. but as a problem. there are a lot of overweight people in america. since we all stopped smoking, we've become a very fat country. but none of them mention that. expect don't like except in the specific case of donald trump. if you want to save the population from dying of covid-19, you would encourage them to slim down. everything you can to keep the gyms open. but our leadership has done the opposite of that.rs thesthey've arrested jim ownersr trying to get americans to lose weight. donald trump's life, they told us, is beyond saving. they made this very clear. according to one anchor at cnn, the president was 90 times more likely to die than the young

person. 90 times! that sounds very scary, but only if you are not familiar with the numbers. according to the cdc, 9.98% of coronavirus patients under the age of 49 survive. even old people get over the virus. almost all of them. according to the cdc, survival rate for people over 70 years old is 94.6%. that's all people over 70, including people who are 103. together, it's 93%.to ordinary shingles may be more deadly. it turns out "90 times more likely to die" is not actually a death sentence. but things got so overheated on cnn on friday that even the channel's in-house doctor felt obliged to add some perspective to theed fearmongering. >> obviously, given the g president's age and pre-existing illnesses, he is going to be at increased risk from this disease. but i want to preface this by saying the odds are very much in

his favor. i don'tve m want to unsettle pee too much with this, greater than 95% chance that he will get through this still. >> tucker: the odds are very much in his favor. well, that's an understatement. the median age of death for coronavirus in this country is 78 years old. as it happens, 78 is also the life expectancy for all people in this country. in other words, it's dangerous to be an old person who has the coronavirus. it's also dangerous to be ann od person period. at some point, we are all going to die. dying is the central fact of life. unfortunately, a secular society has no answer for that, no explanation, and no comfort to give us in the face of it. so no wonder we are so terrified. but what if we were less afraid? what if the news media weren't frothy in a partisan frenzy before the election? what if we could think clearly? what kind of conversation would be be having then? we might have some varied tough

questions for hour medical representation. if you are looking at states free from disease, you would try to move to the white house. everyone around the president has tested regularly, doctors everywhere. donald trump got the virus anyway. so they are telling us that trump got infected because he ignored coronavirus protocol. that's a lie. lots of people follow the rules and get the virus anyway. it may have happened to you. you probably know someone it happened two. all were rules don't work very well, that's the real lesson here. our rules don't work very well. we are destroying our society and to still getting sick. there has to be a better way to do this. and in fact, there is a better way. sweden is a rational i country. unlike us, the swedish government never force the entire population to wear masks. sweden didn't shut down its entire economy.

so what happened to sweden in the end? sweden has a population of more than 10 million people. and yet m the country averages barely 200 cases a day. that's been true for the past few weeks, all for the month of september. that's far better than say in spain, which is reporting about 12,000 new cases a day. last month, a little over 1% of the coronavirus tests administered in sweden came back positive. compare that to 7% in northwest england. their new cases is lower than the neighboring denmark or the netherlands. here's what's sweden looks like now. >>e it looks like the world we lost. cafes and restaurants fall, people relaxed, no face masks, no panic.le sweden kept most of its schools and businesses open.es they asked people to socially distance. half of the sweden's live alone anyway.

they imposed few other rules besides banning large gatherings. buses, trains, well, look at this. not a face mask insight. sweden's biggest hospital, the intensive care unit, overwhelmed in the spring is deserted. >> tucker: it looks like the world we lost. what a poignant observation that is. poignant because it's true. the swedes, unlike our health authorities, followed the science and its worked. meanwhile, and cnn will tell you this at least once an hour, we've had more than 7 million positive results on coronavirus tests in this country. we've had 209,000 deaths. those are the numbers you will see in the screen. but even now, we still don't know what they mean. because there is so little transparency. for example, what exactly counts as a coronavirus death question mike we wish we could tell you. from cdc data that as of last month, the total of almost 6500 coronavirus deaths had

intentional and unintentional adverse events. so if people are poisoning themselves or falling off of ladders, wire week counting these deaths as coronavirus deaths? that's unclear. we should know, but we don't. we do know that some physicians have said they felt pressured to classify death says covid related even when they clearly weren't. two physicians, dan erickson and arun maas i.e., said that exact thing in a youtube video. they are clinical physicians, they treat coronavirus, and they told us their experiences doing that. youtube scrubbed the tape. suddenly we are not to do country.n this the big picture is good enough for us. because the big picture supports the strategy where leaders o support. they think it's working. and eric city, bill de blasio announced today he is closing schools and businesses and 20

neighborhoods. this is absolutely necessary bill de blasio says. of course, it greatly pains in. >> it's time for us to rewind, to take some of the steps we took before that worked. i don't say it with anything but pain for folks in the community, small business owners, folks who really want to get their lives more back to normal. but this is to make sure that this virus does not spread more deeply in those communities and threaten lives and that it does not spread to the rest of the cities. it's a measure i think we have to take to contain the situation before it gets any worse. >> tucker: it's painful, we are all suffering, but the good news is we are all suffering together and doing it for good reason. most americans can do just that and accept it. most have to do the right thing by their neighbors and country. but it's hard to feel good about this if you can't trust the people making the decisions. and we can't.

they don't mean it, they don't really care about slowing the spread of the coronavirus, it's hard to believe that no one wants to think it but we learned it for certain in june. back in june when 1200 public health experts signed a letter stating that "white supremacy is a legal public health issue that predates and contributes to covid-19." how does it contribute to covid-19? it's insane. they never explained, they just kept lecturing. protests and rioting were "vit "vital." the experts noted that they don't approve of "all gatherings." no, not all gatherings. particularly protests against stay-at-home orders. so some protests were medically acceptable. others were a threat to public health. it really depended on party affiliation. they set it out loud. johns hopkins epidemiologist

tweeted this "in this moment, the public health risk of not protesting to end systemic racism greatly exceeds the harms of the virus." what a. she kept her job by the way. and she never explained how that works scientifically. we do all just sat back and watched, mouth agape. but inside we knew.th they don't care about public health at all.al they care about partisan outcomes. mark levine who runs the new york city health council said "let's be clear about something, if there is a spike in coronavirus cases in the next two weeks, don't blame protesters -- blame racism." no one is saying racism infected donald trump. this is the most irrational e thing that has ever happened in this country, ever. remarkably the adults in the room signed up for it. "the threat to covid control is

tiny compared to the threat to covid control when governments act in ways that lose community trust." it's amusing in a better way, if you think about it for a second. losing community trust? that happened the day they claim their protesters were safe and ours weren't. we knew for a fact that they were lying for partisan reasons and theseng people should nevere in charge of anything ever aga again. but they stayed in charge. now they are telling us we can't have confirmation hearings for amy coney barrett on october 12 because it's too dangerous. you know, coronavirus, chronic obesity, whatever. as a matter of science, of public health, donald trump is not allowed to appoint anyone to the supreme court, period. >> there is no reason why this shouldn't be delayed other than a referred all my effort to rush through where they can't even see the witnesses face-to-face.

>> i don't know why you would run through this hearing and put the people in danger while you have shut down the whole senate. i just think it's wrong. we are s suggesting that -- >> sadly three of my colleagues have been diagnosed as having the virus. if this were a baseball team te players came down with covid-19, we would've canceled the game and postponed it to a future date. >> tucker: if this were a game, we would postpone it. he is onto something there actually. sports leagues would probably cancel their game if their players were infected. that happened a bunch all to protect 25-year-old athletes in perfect physical condition. as a scientific matter, that is absurd. it was always observed when donald trump walked out of walter reed, people may have started to realize how absurd it is. that's why the media is so ang

angry. up next, we will have reactions to news of the president's release from walter reed as well as details on new york's new lockdown. much more, be right back. ♪ so really, how are you? oh well, look! that's what we're both taking right now, fanapt. you know it's really been helping me manage my schizophrenia. i used to hear these terrible voices. loser! you're such a failure. you're so embarrassing. i used to feel like everyone was staring at me. but we're doing much better now, right? yeah. fanapt is approved for the treatment of schizophrenia in adults. in clinical trials, fanapt significantly improved symptoms of schizophrenia compared to placebo. fanapt may change your heart rhythm which could elevate risk of sudden death. your doctor will consider this when deciding among treatments

>> tucker: the nation of sweet and approached coronavirus so differently than the way we did. they did not impose lockdowns on the entire country, they didn't force everyone to wear a mask outdoors, they didn't close all the schools. undo they lectured a little less than our public health authorities have. how is sweden doing? well, it's doing better than its neighbors are doing. it's reporting only a couple hundred of cases per day. in september, by contrast, france and spain reported 10,000 new cases a day. some experts, the ones who aren't enraged with partisan fervor, are saying that sweet it may be proof that strict lockdowns don't work and in fact may have been counterproductive. alexex berenson has been saying this for an awfully long time but he's taken a huge amount of grief are doing so. he's the author of the unreported truths about covid-19 part two, updated examination and strategy. thanks so much for joining us.

we were sort of getting the final look at how sweet and wound up. you come up for many months, had been saying that may be sweden model for us. and you were attacked for it. how would you assess sweden today? >> in sweden essentially back to normal as he said. you can see the other european countries are followingng sweet and essentially, france and spain, despite having large spikes and cause all my positive tests, there are some arguments over partial lockdowns in certain cities including madrid. but there's not a full national lockdown. can i pull back for a second? i want to say something about what the president said today, what he tweeted today where he said "don't be afraid of covid-19, don't let it dominate your life." >> tucker: you can't say that -- of course you should be terrified. go ahead.

it's because that might be the most presidential thing this president is ever said. he's not actually saying don't be afraid of covid-19, his aim saying don't be afraid of one another. it spreads between people, and the only way to could make it go permanently is to lock us all away permanently. and that can't happen. that is not compatible with li life. something that i will never forget just walking around times square six months ago about six months ago and walking around new york city and it was deserted. it was as if a bomb had gone off and everyone was terrified. no one was going outside. six months ago, even then, that responsibility didn't make sense. but there were reasons for it. they were six months on end we know that if you believe the w.h.o. and 750 million people have been infected with this w that the death rate is about one and 1,000 meeting at 999 have

1,000 people will live up to get getting the coronavirus. if you believe the numbers, it might be 997. it might be 996 out of a thousand. it is a tiny death rate. and we have gone crazy and we have sacrificed our kids and we have sacrificed society andcr donald trump watch out of that hospital today and decide what needed to be said. we have to stop being so afraid of this. for this country, we put people on the moon. we are at the first manned flight in 1903. what does happen to us that this dismal virus as scared everyone to e death? i do not understand it and we have to get out of it. >> tucker: because there's no answer for a death in a society like ours. i think i do think that's part of it. people should remember you can't live cut off from other people. some of us don't want to period. but you can't live a life cut out from other people, it doesn'tt work.

>> that's right. listen, people can vote for joe biden or donald trump for all kinds of reasons. but joe biden has barely gotten out of his house it feels like in the last six months. and donald trump is lived. he took a chance, he rolled the dice, and he got caught. he actually did get the coronavirus, but guess what? it's not that dangerous. it looks like it's going to be fine. even though he's ae 74-year-old man who is mildly overweight. that is the lesson we should take care. we need to live. >> tucker: it's funny how people attack you for saying things like that. i think that's the most affirming thing i've heard in a long time and i malike miller gd that you said it out loud. alex berenson, thank you. >> thanks, tucker. >> tucker: sunday, as we said earlier, the mayor of new york bill de blasio said he's shutting down schools and nonessential businesses, whatever thatin is. he's never walked in a business in his life. several zip codes in the city, including brooklyn and queens.

what did the zip codes do wrong? well, more than 3% of coronavirus tests came back positive for aan week. no word on how many people died. that's not even part of it. they just said positive tests. what's interesting is that just the other day, practically, bill de blasio said he wasn't against mask gatherings as long as they agreed with the politics they were expressing. >> here in the city it could not mean just thousands, hundreds of thousands. it's just not time for that now. it's pickled about protests? are they going to be allowed to? this is always an area of sensitivity. we understand people are talking about the need for historic changes. this is a historic moment of change that we have to respect. >> tucker: oh, so when you go to church to try to have a jewish wedding into brooklyn, yu can't, but if you are eluding

macy's it's a historic movement? you are a fraud, you are a liar, you are totally irrational, and do no longer have a legitimate to lead. period. today theea governor of new yor, andrewew cuomo, decided to appre the closure of many nonessential businesses. that's not because he supposed to lockdowns, he thinks the real problem is religious services. watch. >> thehe religious leaders do nt agree to abide by these rules then we will close the religious institutions, period. >> tucker: really? we had a first amendment that said governments will not get in the way of your extr you asked g your religion. many of the services being touched down -- they haven't

been playing along to their credit. putting aside whether any of that is legal, what is the science behind it? the reported "science" behind it? dr. marc siegel is of course our doctor, fox news medical contributor. good to see a doctor. >> tucker, it's the science of fear, isn't it? it's not the science of science in terms of covid-19. i just returned from the beautiful lush pacific northwest to land here in great-looking post-apocalyptic feeling new york city only to hear that mayor de blasio is planning on further lockdowns, further destruction of businesses. nine zipip codes. i, by the way, can say jewish wedding without anything happening to me i think. zip codes where you can't go to a restaurant, these nonessential businesses, they are essential by the way. and governor cuomo come of all people, even with all he's done to hurt us with nursing homes is at least admitting that it's not

likely you will get covid-19 ina small restaurant. you know what these people on the zip codes are going to do? they are going to go one block away and needed a restaurant and another zip code. how does that prevent the spread of covid-19 -- mark this is fear. this is punitive nest. i want to tell our viewers a secret. you know whyiv lockdowns occur? lockdowns occur because they don't think they can control you. if you would wear a mask and social distance, maybe they'd leave you alone for a while. but otherwise you get locked down as a form of punishment. i want to issue a warning tonight. there is a spanish series out, science fiction supposedly, called the barrier. it takes place in spain in 2045. outside the barrier lives the government. istrange looking uniforms and they control inside the barrier where people are suffering and being killed because of a virus, because of a virus that the

government can't control so the government they are abides you. the warning, we cannot have a society like that. we need our freedoms. this is the united states. >> tucker: people put up with it. you get what you put up with it turns out. marc siegel, great to see you. democrats are saying we can't have amy coney barrett hearing because it's too dangerous unlike rioting or burning down to wendy's. it looks like the senate is going ahead anyway. october 12th, the day on the calendar. will it actually happen? ♪ if you have medicare, listen up.

i remember when the mayor of chicago said that she had to get a haircut because she was an essential person. so if you like the senators can show up and soak in judge barrett. >> tucker: no one ever worries about, i don't know, that huber eats delivery men in midtown. we don't care about them i gue guess. >> nell, i think that's the point. it's who is really important. the senators like to think it's them so they are obviously too important to take any risks even though us little people are the one stocking the shelves and putting on behind the camera here today, your show. that is all okay. what's not okay is senator sitting socially distanced with masks in a fairly sterile environment in the senate. doing this will work. we areen appearin pain their sa. if they are not going to do their job, i don't think we should be paying their salary. >> tucker: that's just my guess. thanks for taking the risk of

it adapted to humans in a lab. in other words, it's a lab escape. this is not confirmed yet, but nonetheless as china goes on we are getting more and more people who are understanding that this is not a natural virus. indeed i think the scientific community is going to have to come around and face that fact. >> tucker: of the members of the so-called scientific community -- including "national geographic" inhe this. why would they keep their jobs if it turns out that they were so deliberately incurious that they missed one of the great stories of the century? i think we may have lost audio there. gordon jane, i'm sorry about that. it's great to see you tonight. i appreciate it. ♪ we spent so much time thinking about our own country, we miss g lot of what's going on around the world. we will wake up after election

>>f the example was not appropriate especially as that individual has created so much division and hatred between people and specifically hatred to many different individuals. i do apologize for kicking you out of the chat, that individual has spoken hate to many individuals. and i don't think it's an appropriate example for aa role model. >> tucker: so somebody expresses the view that you disagree with and do you call it hate and attack thel kid, a 10-year-old boy? the boy's mother asked about it, he tried to deny it happened.

speaking of fascism, why do parents put up with this? w >> for the longest time, they put up with it they didn't know it was going on. when your kid's right now on a laptop or in the computer in the room and they are doing this on all of the sudden you hear in the back of the room like what did that teacher just say? isis not just anti-trump nonsene going on, but it's antipolice. i've seen a lot of thought all across the country. parents are starting to wake up and realize what's happening in these classrooms. it's a reminder that when they go back to class, make sure you are talkingak with your kid daiy which you should be doing anyway. but ask them about their day and what they are being taught. my experiences been when teachers hear from these parents are when they contact the principal for the most part there is a movement. in this case, of course, the schools not responded to any of our inquiries. >> tucker: i said that so judgmentally. i've got children and i

certainly put up with a lot over the years. that was a huge mistake. teachers need to know -- most teachers are good people i think. but they need to a know that the is oversight and there are boundaries and you are not allowed to torment and propagandize children. i think, don't you?n' >> yes. i think that when you are clear with the expectations coming from these parents i think the teachers for the most part -- i agree with you. the vast majority are good people. that is not their intent. but sometimes they don't realize what they are doing and they have to make sure that they know that they are watching everything that they are doing. of course, you can have conversations about issues with kids who are of age. but when it's a 10-year-old saying they support trump, maybe we should encourage more of that. >> tucker: i think that's raright. they need to know adults are watching. because many of them are not adults. >> they claim to be. >> tucker: great to see you. thank you.

that's it for us, we'll be back tomorrow night. the show that is unapologetic. tough the best evening with the ones you love. sean hannity takes over from here the trump campaign is telling uo he does plan to participate in the debate. he's making a speedy recovery in the battle against kobe. moments ago he just posted this. >> i just left wall three medical center. i learned so much about the coronavirus. one thing is certain
