successful. >> neil: two weeks is a long time, as you guys remind me. thank you both very, very much. we are watching that as well. we will get details on where the stimulus talks are going, whether anything can be done. that is something we will be talking more about tomorrow. for now, here comes "the five." >> jesse: hello, everyone. i am jesse watters along with emily compagno, juan williams, dana perino, and greg gutfeld. it's 5:00 in new york city and this is "the five." it's a fight to the finish with the election just two weeks away. president trump is continuing to campaign like crazy. he's holding another rally in the key battleground of pennsylvania later tonight. while sleepy joe biden is taking a much different approach. the former vp is off the trail again to prepare for thursday's debate. it comes as democrats worry they could be heading for a 2016 repeat. early voting continues to surge.

over 35 million americans have cast ballots so far and president trump says republicans are in a strong position in some very key swing states. as for thursday's big debate, the controversial last-minute change by introducing -- here is president trump sounding off on it all. >> i think it's imploding, he's gone into hiding. set up for a long time, things are changing fast and the number at the polls are looking really good. really, really good. they said, if you let him talk he will uses train of thought because he is gone, but i also understand that he is issuing lies, generally, it's okay to really attack that. >> jesse: dana perino, they've introduced a mute button. so everybody knows, there is going to be a moment where they

can just speak without the mute button but most of it, they will be muted at the discretion of -- >> dana: know, just for the opening two-minute statement. >> juan: know, in each statement. >> dana: no, there's six topics i guess, so at the beginning of each topic, each candidate will get 2 minutes -- >> jesse: then you on mute it and go out at. >> dana: then it's a free-for-all. i think this place to both of their strengths and i think it helps the american people be able to hear, because we know the crosstalk was difficult for people to even understand and i think people will be even more likely to tune in this thursday, knowing they will have a chance to hear some things, so i think that plays to their strengths. >> jesse: the president is in pennsylvania later tonight. erie, pennsylvania, where polls are tightening. he has cut biden's lead in half from 6.23 points. tell us your thoughts about the president's busy campaign schedule. >> emily: first of all, in that county specifically we know that he was the last republican to win it since reagan.

we know he won pennsylvania in 2016 by 44,000 votes but he still got 11,000 more votes in the county then romney in 2012. that goes to show how important a part of the state is to his statewide victory. then a quick note about the polls nationally, we often talk about whether the results can be trusted but i think the trends themselves are really important. an incredible poll came out today had them within two points nationally. those same polls a month ago had biden ahead by six points, so it shows just how tightening the race has become. >> jesse: that pull was a good one for the president in "the new york times" poll came out today, plus nine and they say it's the last poll they're going to do before the election. we have not found an example in modern presidential history where one of the nominees takes it for two straight days october. why does he need four days to prepare for debate? >> juan: wait a second, wait a second. i do believe he's doing pretty well, and it seems to me that if

i was running his campaign i would say, that trump guy seems to go out there and say things and make it all about himself so let him keep doing what he's doing. >> jesse: you think taking four days off is good? >> juan: i don't think he is taking days off. he think he is preparing for the debate. he just did it interview with "60 minutes." you know what, something, we said this yesterday, i am nervous. i think the only real poll is election day, but i must say, among political people who i chat up, there's this thought, what is trump doing? why is he doing what he's doing? people say he is attacking fauci, who is very popular. he's attacking the debate moderator. he's attacking the debate topics. he says he doesn't like the debate topics. not only that, then he goes after hunter biden. none of this is going to move the needle or say to people, this is really important to me and my family. i mean, frank luntz came out today and said this is political malpractice. >> jesse: he predicted hillary

was going to win back in 2016 -- >> juan: i'm saying, why isn't he talking about the virus? why isn't he talking about the economy? even the rallies, people say i don't think the rallies are so great. they are super spreader events. >> jesse: you haven't watched the rally's, about the economy quite a bit. in 2016 he was going after the rnc, he was going after the media, he was going after corrupt hitler and that turned out you remember how. >> greg: everything, everybody that he said in 2016, he proved that his strategy, it seems like everything he was doing that was wrong allowed him to win. you could say this is the worst thing i've ever seen, and you didn't win and that was wrong, and i can agree and say why is he doing this, why is he doing this, but the fact is he usually figures that out and gets it right. the thing that i don't understand is joe biden, he essentially just drops out like

a witness in a mafia trial, so there is a mute button but it's being run by the democratic party. they are just muting him and yet, he is still tweeting. if you can tweet, you can then walk around and do stuff, unless it's not him tweeting. could be the russians. but you do bring up hunter biden, so this is like a real -- 2020 is a contrast and transparency. first you have a candidate who is barely pretending to be the top of the ticket. we know it's really about kama kamala. using a debate to cover the fact that he's hiding from the public over these damaging emails involving hide in biden, hunter biden and the fact that he was promising 10% to the big man, which by the way, it would be great. donald trump should keep referring to joe as the big man in the event. what do you say, big man? just to get him a little -- >> jesse: i'm sure that's going to be coming up in the

debate. he's bringing obama, do you think that will help him? he always says, wouldn't be here in the oval office if it weren't for barack obama. >> dana: i will take a question, maybe you can help a little bit more and you lived in philadelphia for a while and that is where president obama is going. we know that the turnout for hillary clinton in the way that she needed them to come obviously, because president trump was able to win. and i am curious, does that change this time around? will the democratic voters in philly turnout for biden when they wouldn't for hillary clinton, and is barack obama's appearance there -- i remember in 2016, the last campaign event that barack obama did was in philly. >> jesse: they had some celebrities there, some singers, i think. we have to remind ourselves that 2020 is a different race than 2016. incumbents usually win in the

economy, that is a little different, the pandemic is a little different. i want to mention one other thing, the rnc did a $25 million ad buy targeting seniors. one thing we have seen is that seniors have softened on "the five" when it comes to covid but this ad buy is interesting and the places they are targeting it and really focusing in on medicare for all, which seniors don't want. they are talking about things like government takeover of health care. they don't want that. so you see in a place like north carolina where you have cal cunningham, the democrat's kind of sexting scandal going on. can this kind of surgical approach of a targeted ad buy, can that be a difference? because that could be a close election. >> juan: joe biden is not for medicare for all. he has a different plan. >> greg: we don't know what he's for. >> juan: no, we do know what he's for. but to your answer about philly,

what you're saying is black voters, our black voters going to turn out in philly? but i think in part, white suburban women in montgomery county, a huge number of voters, how do they feel? so far, what you see his big turnout from black voters so far in terms of the early lines that sneak all around and suburban women are pretty convinced. i'm not sure we are still persuading people at this point. it's about turnout. >> jesse: the candidate that has the most enthusiasm and the better ground game usually wins the turnout. coming up, is there more trouble ahead for hunter biden? president trump says the doj and bill barr, what he says they should do.

this has to be known about before the election. this is the laptop from hell. they say right in, the big man has to get 10% in another email it says 50%. >> emily: the president also dismissing adam schiff or dismissing the allegations of hunter biden as russian disinformation. >> it's so crazy, i saw shifty schiff say this is russia. he is so sick. we went two and a half years of that plus and this guy, he ought to be put away or something should happen with him. >> emily: all right. >> juan: this is so great. on that level, unbelievable. who says things like that? the president of the united states? wow. >> emily: congress approved articles of impeachment from technically one sentence from one phone call. you acknowledge that what is in those emails deserves at least

an investigation to get to the bottom of this? >> juan: wait a minute, wait a minute. first of all, we don't know about the emails, whose emails they are. >> jesse: they are hunter's emails. >> emily: do you acknowledge a deserves an investigation to get to the bottom of? >> juan: in my thinking, emily, he's railing against adam schiff, the congressman from california. why isn't he railing against the fbi? the fbi says russia is conducting a disinformation campaign for the election of 2020 and the fbi has had the laptop since december and they've done nothing, so i guess there's nothing to do. they found nothing, i don't know what. but they haven't said anything, have they? it's his fbi. so to me it's like, the senator from nebraska came out and said trump is really up to his ears and all this corruption, self-dealing, his family has made a business out of the presidency. why doesn't he rail against -- >> jesse: this is before they became president. >> emily: now, he said they

turned the white house and the presidency into a profit-makings what your fellow republicans said - -- >> greg: the lost money! have you seen the financial reports? they lost money. >> juan: the two sons are going around the world with the trump name in the white house. >> jesse: no, they are not. here's the thing, the fbi's not going to touch this thing. they screwed up the last election, they're not going to make the same mistake here but we do have those emails with the receipts from hunter and the fbi has the laptop so they can't be asked in the receipts literally say yes, kickback 10 for the big guy. there is a kickback of chinese money, eventually, there is influence peddling and he's selling foreign policy for profit. that we know appeared the fact they have all circled the wagons here, big tech in the media, shows this is a terminal threat. this is where all the donor money went come to the bidens, and now they are worried. they're basically acting like

communist china and china suppresses it. but the more they suppress the story the more suspicious it is. this is getting kicked around all over the internet, people are emailing each other, it's all over talk radio. seniors are very interested in this story. everyone knows someone like hunter. everyone knows in a small town you have a family like this that continues to get rich on their name and they continue to be protected. remember, joe biden from delaware, the smallest state is run by the duponts, and the credit card companies. he's been there protected for decades, doing their bidding. same thing now, who is he getting his money from? more billionaires, he's getting money from big tech, wall street, silicon valley, big pharma. he's totally in control and they know when they give him the money he will open the borders, let the jobs go to china and give them that corporate welfare. that is why trump is on it. he is on offense now, biden is

on defense and it's starting to move the needle. >> emily: to jesse's point, the streisand effect and what would happen if biden did win the election. messaging, what should he message, how will he message and will this all deflate? >> dana: my instincts as a communications person would be that you would at least want to answer some of these questions, even may be on background before the debate on thursday night, but it doesn't appear that that's what they are going to do. he will have four days to get ready for an answer, so i'm assuming that they will have it in then they will have the tech companies having to answer to congress not long after that and they don't have friends on the republican or democratic side and republicans are going to say we want to be treated fairly. they feel like they are not being treated fairly at all. for example, joni ernst of iowa is in a tough reelection battle for the senate seat there. there was a fake thing that went out that said the iowa farm bureau had pulled their support.

it was fake but it went round and around before they got it taken down in the correction that the iowa farm bureau put out barely has any retweets. so i think conservatives are going to demand some equal treatment by these tech companies. if they can get it it will be a really fascinating debate. and then when president trump is acting bill barr to act, pushing the attorney general. that doesn't work very well, so i think bill barr probably just doesn't really react to things like that. >> emily: about seven times around the world before it makes it halfway, so the laptop from hell is a vacuum cleaner to his dad's documents. >> greg: missing here, where the people who said this is worse than watergate? where are they? the media went through kavanaugh's yearbooks. they chased down anyone who posted a meme on twitter that was pro-trump were mean to cnn. they gave untold oxygen to

anthony scaramucci and mary trump, and yet they can't be bothered by this story. they can't even sure of the illusion that they might be objective or on biased. this is a really simple thing for them to do, to follow up. then you get this letter that is signed by brennan and clapper, clearly this is russian disinformation but we don't have any evidence of that. they say they don't have any evidence! that's just like the three-year russian disinformation campaign that they thrusted on america since 2016! so we are listening to these clouds, who totally screwed us over once again in the media just sits on the sidelines and pretends like nothing is happening. that's the problem that they have here. why are they doing this customer because they want to influence the election. that's why that letter was put out by klapper. they're trying to influence the election, the media strain influence the election by not covering this because they know it is a good story.

>> juan: but reporters have checked it out, they can't verify any of it! >> greg: they've never done that before -- >> juan: and bill barr, remember the durham report was going to come? the unmasking, none of this has amounted to any october surpri surprise! >> jesse: any time "the new york times" publishes anything, fox news has to actually get their hard evidence before we can report on that? >> juan: no, you can say "the times" -- i'm saying fox news, "the new york times," every publication including current conservative publications have looked into it and can't find anything! >> jesse: there were reports that an email was sent. gift of "the new york times" and twitter and facebook take the email itself, verify it with their fact-checkers and unscented. >> juan: i could see you would publish "juan williams is beating his wife." you can't say didn't happen! >> jesse: there's no evidence of that. if you -- then maybe you'd report. >> emily: next up, presents

2030. i was reading jerry stipe in "the wall street journal" this morning and he said it's not the economy because most americans give president trump on that issue but they are not voting in that way. what do you think? >> jesse: i'm voting yes. >> greg: i'm just impressed how much we've gotten out of that phone call. we got three segments out of a fox & friends phone call. to that point i'm not as worried about the economic economics of a biden regime as i am about the social consequences. if you listen to the hard left, they are telling you what they are going to do to you. they are not interested in a difference of opinion anymore. after the election, it's about retribution. economist, leftist robert rice tweeted the post election, we are going to name every person from officials to executives to supporters who enabled this catastrophe. what is he implying? it sounds like if you are not part of his group, they are going to down.

heaved a very vague, just a democratic -- no, because it he calls it the truth and reconciliation commission, otherwise known as a lynch mob or a witch trial, you can combine the two. that's what i worry about purity think we can live through any kind of economic turmoil, as we've seen from covid, but we have people preaching the civil war. robert rice is declaring that we are going to come after you after this election. that is freaking scary. >> juan: emily, the former vice president says nobody under $400,000 is going to pay more taxes. obama said nobody under $250,000, so this is double that. >> emily: respectfully, i think part of the issue with the democratic talking points is they silo everything economically and they oversimplify and they fail to recognize or acknowledge at least in their statements that everything is interrelated. it's not just about consequences, it's also about their proposed regulations too

appear the congressional budget office has estimated that compared to this economy in 2030, there would also be just under 5 million americans e workforce. that there would be $2.6 trillion less in the gdp in addition to that $6500 less than the median income, and i grew us businesses get choked by state and federal regulations. i've seen it, literally for decades, firsthand how regular americans, the ripple effect, how their businesses struggle because of the tough consequences and the overregulation and how it all comes together. i think farmers can be small business owners and middle-class americans can be employers, and all of these things are interrelated, so i think it doesn't do any american who really is trying to vote earnestly with their families 'interest best in mind, doesn't do them any justice to talk about this one pointed a time as if they're not related. the consequences are huge. >> juan: a socialist hell hole, does he think he's running against bernie sanders?

>> jesse: same thing. bernie will run the senate and let kamala to all the dirty work. he killed the first recovery eight years ago, he will do it against his recovery. he's never run a business his whole life. obama-biden raised taxes. the middle class got hosed. they barely got a raise in eight years, the middle class got an $8,000 raise so far under trump. remember how they promised all those green jobs, although sociable-ready jobs? those never materialized. remember filling up your gas tank under obama-biden? $350 a gallon? it's been $2.50 under trump. his green new deal is tax cuts to middle-class families. it will be a. we will all die, we will burn in hades, and the show will be off the air. [laughter] >> juan: oh, no. >> greg: we will be in hell. it will be the biden hell. >> juan: the socialist hell, oh, my god. dana, one thing that strikes me, when you look at the polls,

americans do want more spending on infrastructure, more spending on technology that's climate friendly. >> dana: but if you ask that question, do you want to spend more on expires you the answer is always yes. the question is do you want your taxes to be raised in order to pay for it and the answer is no. so you have a democratic ticket that is running a potentially raising our jackets, your health care costs, your energy costs and making your lie much less affordable. i think with the president said today was a great way to just distill down the closing argument. and he said that in a way that only donald trump can say but it was quite memorable, and if he can drive up his positives and drive down biden's negatives, or drive up biden's negatives on the economy, the president would do himself a world of good going in to the last 13 days. >> juan: democratic governors causing controversy about a future vaccine. next on "the five."

conduct its own independent review of its vaccine. i was going to stay right there, it's a staple to do this -- shameful to do this for american companies, 24/7, seven days a week, they are not taking any breaks to get this done and to undercut it like this i think is a shame. >> emily: i agree, these sitting governors are so partisan they are sounding like anti-factors willing to risk public health because they hate trump so much. who is willing to pay for all these additions to the california public health customer and wildflower wildfire costing billions of dollars so it will fall back on the taxpayer's shoulders. >> dana: of biden and kamala harris were to win this election, they will be the beneficiaries of operation warp speed and all of a sudden the vaccine will be great? >> greg: operation warp speed is in the name. we are trying to do it fast because this is a novel pandemic.

i can't believe how antiscience these people are. they actually believe trump is in charge of the vaccine. he is in there running the trials and recruiting patients. they are involved in the fda in putting this through. the other point i will make about cuomo's he has been wrong in almost every facet of this. he's been able to change when he realizes it's wrong and people die, no one should listen to him. he's writing the book i guess on how awesome the hindenburg was fell through, now he's writing about oh, i'm really good at this pandemic stuff. no one is saying that. >> dana: and he started the sound bite by saying his opinion doesn't matter. >> greg: that's true. i would never say that. >> dana: there's even reports that president trump is frustrated with the fda for not putting it through faster. what the fda is doing in following protocol? >> juan: wait a second, why is he putting pressure on the fda? we know he put pressure on the cdc. >> dana: he's frustrated with them that they are not moving it

faster. >> juan: that's the point. >> dana: but they're not moving at faster, though. they are not being affected by it. before giving the administration failed in its handling of the coronavirus, when you see them then putting pressure on the fda, people are like what's going on? everything has been politicized and people then lose confidence. >> greg: says the guy who says they failed. not political. >> juan: but they did, but your point is right about the companies. i think they're trying their best and they also have liability, potentially. but the politics, boy. the administration has politicized the whole thing. >> dana: vaccine, politics, it's not fun. >> jesse: you could also say the administration succeeded and saved millions of lives. >> juan: really? >> jesse: if you look back at the travel ban, which joe biden was against, so we can play that game all day. i would bet you that a lot of these democratic governors that are talking trash about the vaccine are going to be first in line to get that vaccine when it comes out. i would also bet their portfolios are all lubed up with

pfizer and johnson & johnson and they are watching those stocks explode and they will cash out when the time comes. i don't like the fact they told us we've had to stay in our basements and hide until there's a vaccine, and now we are on the cusp of a vaccine, they say no, just wear a mask, the vaccine can kill you. i don't trust anything the democrats say about this. >> dana: for all of our sakes, we should want a vaccine. >> jesse: shoot me in the arm with it right now. >> dana: how profound is that? i will go with you. >> jesse: all right. you go first.

missing poster on a phone pole. he just called what hunter calls of vendor. still, it's good to see 3% of late night comedy is not in lockstep with the media majority and they aren't just performing for half their audience and insulting the other half. remember when comics took risks? now they take up time, pandering to their peers, fearful of rejection, providing jokes that 99.9% of their fellow entertainers and media allies all embrace. the upside, they need not worry about losing their job, a speech kid or party invite. the downside, they are about as edgy as a my pillow add pier but who's complaining? this research isn't new but not only does this lockstep leave a lane open for me, you admire others for making their own lane too. johnny rotten, the original punk just divorced trump. 50-cent, no conformist himself committed the same thing. your rebels are those who leave the pack on afraid of the abuse they will get. of course, republicans are always targeted more because

than the late-night show. also because we make fun of ourselves. >> greg: we don't take yourself seriously, and the interesting thing, i think you will agree with this come on, is on "the five" we get both sides of the story. when you go onto one of those stories, it's like they never heard somebody like me or dana, but they've known one side but they don't know the other and i think that's what skews them. >> juan: i think they are looking for stuff that's funny and i think in all honesty, trump's walking satire, wouldn't you say? >> greg: yeah. >> juan: he's great material. but i hear your point. i mean, they could be more diverse. i think you are, right. but i think when i was reacting to what you were writing i was thinking, "snl" had record ratings for their debut this season, and i think part of that is because people are paying attention to politics and politics and cable news, but

also humor is rich right now. >> greg: that is true. it's an important time, lme. because we all need to laugh, don't we? don't we? >> emily: yes, i laughed. i think the numbers are everything, obviously, but even if they were to be more even, the jokes aren't the same when they are about biden or about democrat-elected officials or whatever. it's not the same ferocity and they are not going for the jugular like they are when they do it about the president or his family, that has frankly been incredibly run and i don't think it's going to change. i think even if biden were to be elected, trump is going to be the topic forever. >> jesse: he's not going away, you mean? >> emily: no! he's literally going to be the topic, don't you agree? >> greg: i agree because there's going to be nothing else them all mike there to make fun of because they can't make fun of joe or kamala but they can make fun of trump. he will run for 2024, right?

>> jesse: we are praying for rush limbaugh, we wish him a quick recovery, 99.8% of the time he continues to be right, america's anchorman. >> emily: all right, before the presidential debate kicks off we asked viewers to pick america's question for our friends at super six and here's the winning question, how many times will joe biden say the phrase "come on man," enter for a free chance to win $50,000, download the app and play the presidential debate again, pick six possible outcomes and watch the debate on fox news this thursday to see how it unfolds. download the app now to get started. >> jesse: very good. >> greg: i love doing the app, they never ask me to do it.

[laughter] i never should have said that. here's something fun. greg's teachable moment. so i have a niece in moscow, a very cute kid -- she's learning english right now. i don't know how old she is, how lucky is she to have an uncle in america who not only can speak english and write english but is a world famous best-selling author who is pretty good with the written word. it's almost like she has the answer key in her family, whenever she has a test, all she has to do is get her aunt, my wife to tap me on the shoulder and i can help her out with the test. i couldn't figure this one out, i wanted you guys to help me

with this -- this is the question from today's test. fill in the blank with either much, many, a lot of. john has blank money -- it's obvious that many doesn't work there. it's either john has much money or john has a lot of money. >> juan: how about hasn't lost money? you can see much, many, a lot of. many doesn't work but this is ridiculous -- no one can get this right. the textbook is wrong. >> juan: you can't say johnny hasn't much money? >> emily: i feel like they're going to tell us what the real answer is. that's like jane austen style.

>> greg: i was humiliated in front of my family for not knowing the answer, the russians are going what is your problem? your pathetic. >> jesse: can you warn us next time you're doing a quiz? i got really nervous. >> juan: all right, we all need a few good laughs dealing with the coronavirus, so take a look at how a mexican restaurant in austin, texas, is creating drive-by laughter with signs. here's a political one, is your refrigerator running? because i might vote for it. then there is a coded joke, when this virus is over i still want some of y'all to stay away from me. and of course there is laughter about changes that have taken place in our daily lives -- i've never imagined that i would go up to the bank teller with a mask on and ask for money and this one is funny but kind of sad too, in 20 years our country

will be run by people homeschooled by day drinkers. thanks to the el arroyo restaurant in austin, texas, they've been sharing the silly sign since the 1980s. >> emily: we have a gas station in seattle that has that, it has the most amazing statement, but it's really great and i drive-by it purposely. >> greg: we didn't ask you, it's dana's turn right now. [laughter] >> dana: you're going to love this and i think greg is going to love it. a san francisco animal control was able to recover a missing lemur over the weekend after the primate was discovered at a preschool but the officials had the help of some expert spotters too. >> he was there, what was he doing in there? hiding. >> dana: the 21-year-old lemur was stolen from the san francisco zoo last week but

he didn't know that was the case when he saw this lemur named mackey in the preschool parking lot and he said there is a lemur and they are like isn't that just a raccoon? anyway, the guy got arrested -- not the kid, the guy that stole it. >> jesse: that's it for us, "special report" is up next. >> bret: good evening to fox news headquarters in new york, breaking tonight there is renewed optimism that the trump administration of house democrats may agree on the last minute coronavirus relief package before the election. today's negotiations ended about an hour ago without conclusion but a promise of another round tomorrow on specifics. right now, president trump is on his way to a campaign stop in a crucial battleground state of pennsylvania. the event in erie begins at the top of the hour. earlier today, treasury secretary steve mnuchin and house s
