>> bret: i usually cover things fairly but tofurky is heinous. thank you, panel. i appreciate it happy thanksgiving if i don't see you. tomorrow on "special report" employees are using monitoring systems to make sure people have working from home are working. republican senator pat toomey, is he yacht going. thanks for inviting us into your home tonight that's it for "special report" fair balance and unafraid. "fox news primetime" hosted by lawrence jones right now. hey, lawrence. >> lawrence: welcome to "fox news primetime" i'm lawrence jones in new york. tonight we start with the kyle rittenhouse verdict. the media spent the last few weeks insisting none of the facts in the case mattered. to them only important thing was the color of rittenhouse's skin. >> let's just do the thought experiment. just imagine rittenhouse is a young black teenager. >> if he were black, would he be free now. >> no. he wouldn't be alive now. >> imagine if kyle rittenhouse was an 18 or 17-year-old black

kid. >> well, that's a different issue. >> with a gun. >> let's talk about that. >> how would people feel? >> so let's talk about that. see, if the liberal media were actual journalists, they wouldn't have to ask what if this happened to a black man. we know. look no further than the story of andrew coffee the fourth. let me do their job and tell america what happened. in march of 2017, andrew coffee was asleep in his home when a swat team awrid a search warrant for his father. when police detonated a flash bang device before entering. coffee woke up thinking he was being robbed. being a gun owner, coffee opened fire looking to defend his home. when police returned fire, and his girlfriend woods was tragically caught in the crossfire and killed by police. now, each side claimed the other shot first. but it was coffee who was eventually charged with second degree murder and three counts of attempted murder of law enforcement. after more than four years of

legal proceedings, coffee name was cleared on friday when he was found not guilty of murder and attempted murder charges. coffee was still found guilty of weapons possession charges and will face sentencing for that but here's the important part. that decision came down the same day after rittenhouse verdict verdict everyone on the left ignored it and have to ask yourself why. we know. that's because andrew coffee story doesn't fit into their narrative. liberals want you to think that white people can get away with literal murder while there is no justice for black man in america, that the court system would go out of its way to destroy a black man with a gun. but andrew coffee's story blows up entire narrative. they chose to just ignore it the left wants to paint black americans as victims and say they don't believe in the second amendment or self-defense. we know that's not true. we have been defending ourselves in our home for years. now, according to the national

sports foundation, from 2019 to 2020, there was a 58.2% increase in gun purchases among black people. so as more and more black americans arm themselves, andrew coffee once again goes against the left's narrative. here was a black man with a gun defending his home and the justice system cleared his name. but that didn't matter to the media. they are too busy trying to disarm black america. they ignore andrew coffee's story. colorblind justice doesn't move the outrage needle for the left. but racism does. the left profits by dividing america by race. and they don't care about the damage they are doing. just listen to former nba player qualm may brown call it out. >> they made some political that was or shouldn't have been political. >> want to tie it into something black. want to tie it into something bigger. so we can have people come out and march and get checks off of

little teenager's back. >> a bunch of people getting paid to push this racism. they don't have nothing to say. the only thing they get paid off of talking about how racist it is. they got good cars, good houses, good everything telling you how bad it is. >> it was graphic but he called it the way he saw it here to respond son anies who citizen the host of did say podcast. nobody wants a response of what happened that day. >> well, the people that are asking if this was a black boy. let's actually look at that what if this was a black boy and say he shot two white boys. they would not be putting it on as their front headline story. they would not be following it as intensely as they are now. and if definitely if the two -- the two people that were killed by were black, we definitely wouldn't here about that. we would have to wait until monday morning when they compile

all the facts together for the chicago style this is what happened over the weekend where they never say the names of the people who were actually killed. so, all of this is a false conversation again set up for us to be fighting about race. i want to kind of twist it a little bit. since we both can agree because you have people on the right and on the left, both are saying well, what if it was a white boy in this case or what if it was a black boy in this case? how about what if we decide that there is enough evidence to say that there is a problem with our system the way that it is? you have your examples, we have our examples. but do you know what the constant is in both examples? government. so how about we take the opportunity to stop fighting with each other long enough to actually look at what we think is the central problem here and that is the discretion that government has in its executive and judicial capacity to put people in position where they are defending their lives for what should be looked at as cases of self-defense.

and i think that would be a much more productive conversation for both races and it would actually get government back in its place and off of our necks. >> lawrence: let's go there son sonny. my first job was in juvenile court. i have seen how prosecutors can twist evidence and not do what's right for the public interest. we saw them suppress evidence. we saw them hide witnesses. we saw them try to violate constitutional rights here. we saw them say people can't be silent in a court of law with self-incrimination. we saw them try to blast legal counsel in this case if seemed like some of the justice advocates didn't take a moment to say we have been telling you this for years. instead, they divided to side with some movement that is not actually for black people. >> no, also, if you look at

statistics because the right likes to throw the statistics out at black people when they talk about this. this plays into this. who has the discretion to charge? who has the discretion to actually prosecute? what tactics they use and how do does those tactics influence what you look at and regurgitate in statistical form. i would question the right of understanding why are you throwing out these statistics. for black america, i would say this is the time for you to choose a what is it that you want? what do you actually want? do you want white people punished like we have been punished or do you want us to stop being punished? this is the moment of choosing. what is more important? fighting for what you are against or what you are actually for? and if we are going to be people that say we have been abused by this justice system and the way it has treated us, then the answer to that is to actually get a system that fairly treats

us, not one unfairly treating others so we feel some kind of reciprocity with them. no, i want justice for all. and i want it for all of us. black people we are at a place where we have to choose it first. >> lawrence: that's right. equal justice under the law not mob justice. consistency matters. thank you, sonnie johnson. kyle rittenhouse is about to break his silence for the hirst time since his acquittal and sit down with tucker carlson. kyle will detail what was at stake. >> it wasn't kyle rittenhouse on trial in wisconsin. it was the right to self-defense on trial. and if i was convicted no one would be able -- no one would ever be privileged to defend their life against attackers. >> lawrence: that is a must-watch. be sure to catch that interview with "tucker carlson tonight" at 8:00 p.m. after this show. here to react now they as i

understand dated radio host and second amendment rights advocate. dana, thank you so much for being with me tonight. >> thank you, lawrence. >> lawrence: you know, dana, you have been an advocate for the second amendment for a long time. this is nothing new for you. you are consistent on this issue. the second amendment was on trial. self-defense was on trial. you have said that do you feel vindicated tonight? >> i do. i do feel vindicated but i think there are still a lot of other cases out there where and this was one of many cases where self-defense was on trial as well, lawrence, i do feel that the truth won and i felt, you know, i'm grateful that jurors determined this case the way that they did with all the evidence before them in spite of the outside pressure. you can see, lawrence, the mat machinations in this. they have no jurisdiction in this case whatsoever. i think what kyle rittenhouse just said in that clip that you

just played. i think that's accurate. people would have made it a lot mover difficult for law abiding americans to be able to defender themselves using firearms. >> the left has a problem with self-defense anyway. particularly more so when it involves firearms and to this point really quickly, you were talking about andrew coffee, that's another case jefferson. breonna taylor another case. we can sit here and are go on and on. jahlil. law abiding man guarding his business there are a lot 6 these, marcus. another man had fight to clear his name. i had him on my radio program. i think each and every case self-defense does come up and people scrutinize it and determine on a case-by-case basis whether it's still warranted. want to use that as a "avatar" for the right on a whole. >> lawrence: so important you mention those cases because a lot of this audience aren't aware of those cases because they didn't get any coverage, it seemed like the mainstream media does not want to cover those cases and, you know, i said this

in my monologue, you got to ask yourself why. i mean, when a decision comes out the same day of a black man using self-defense and you hear nothing about it,. >> yeah, the media doesn't want america to americans exercise their right to self-defense either. that's one of the reason why they ignored the jahlil stallings case. this was a man outside of his own business in minneapolis guarding his business from rioters. then you had unmarked van show up and people were firing and he got hit with rubber bullets. he had no idea. he just had seconds to react. and his case is incredibly compelling. what happened afterwards on camera is absolutely inexcusable but he was at&t quitted and he was justified in his self-defense and the media likes to portrayed second amendment as being a white america. democrat media and those same individuals that had been advertising it as that. because these are people never

wanted black americans to be armed. i have written a book about it, gun control is same people. same mentality that enforced it back in the era of reconstruction. this is the same ideology at work today. >> this is open seat on "the view" right now for a conservative voice. i don't think there is one woman that is more qualified for that seat than da loesch. i want you to hear what theview has to say today. take a look at. this rotten house. i almost said rotten house. serious repercussions like i can't go and protest now without worrying that some in the case is going to have a gun across a straight line come and shoot me. >> all of that i believe in protests. i really believe in it. >> it's your right, it's your constitutional right. >> you have need to be there you need to speak your mind. government don't always listen to you. >> yeah. >> that is my fear now that he has opened pandora's box to some

questions out there. >> child rapist protesting, they weren't attacking this man? >> yeah. does she actually think violence a protected form of speech in joy behar is on the record officially defending arson and defending assault and defending illegals carrying a firearm like with gaige grosskreutz, they think protected form of speech. rioting protest, burning down businesses protest. that's not protest. that's rioting. and people like her are part of this problem. she is part of the disinformation campaign that's out there give up their rights. >> they should be disbarred. what they tried to do. they do this to american citizens every single day. the suppression of evidence was just terrible. the fact that they tried to take people's constitutional rights. civil libertarians. get me fired up. dana, thank you so much. >> lawrence: up next, this guy

allegedly ran his girlfriend over with a car. why was he allowed to be back behind the wheel? he killed five people and injuring dozens just two weeks later. break down wrap sheet that's next. only from discover.

>> lawrence: welcome back. darrell brooks jr. now faces five counts of first degree intentional homicide after allegedly plowing through a christmas parade in wisconsin. leaving five dead and 48 injured. fox news correspondent matt finn is on the ground in washington with the latest. matt? >> lawrence, this is the parade route right behind me. it was just yesterday that so many people packed right here in into area to celebrate the

holidays. imagine few came here and watched loved once five people dead range from 52 to 81 years old including 79-year-old virginia sorenson. in all, 18 children, ages 3 to 16 were taken to the hospital, six are still in critical condition. >> so just days before thanksgiving tonight, these children are clings for life. video shows the suv plowing through the crowd. narrowly missing some of the survivors. the town that was welcoming the holidays with the parade now in mourning. >> it was,s for lack of a better -- just carnage, liken it to a war zone. what stands out from our mind from our conversations is we do have people who have military background and likened it to a war zone. >> last night that parade became a nightmare. last night many were severely injured what should have been a celebration.

waukesha though will not be defined by the horrific event of last night. we will work together to bring healing. >> and a short while ago there was a prayer vigil here in waukesha. back to you, lawrence. >> lawrence: thanks so much, matt. stay safe tonight. we are learning more and more about the subject darrell brooks jr. a man that has a wrap sheet that's about 50 pages long. a man charged with crimes so 10 times since 1999 substantial bodily harm against another person. reckless endangering and safely possess ago firearm by a felon. he was released on $1,000 cash bail bond days ago after allegedly running over a woman with what may have been the same suv that wreaked havoc last night. here now fox and friends weekend co-host will cain. will, this guy has 50 pages, 50 pages, violent crime after violent crime. he has been in the system since 199. the point of the criminal justice system and bye bye the

way the breaking news he has an active warrant a sexual crimes warrant in nevada. so, time and time again, this guy is doing violent crime, the point of the criminal justice system is to reform people. he never made that turn. yet, they continue to put him on the street until he finally kills someone. >> the point of the criminal justice system is to reform people or lock them away because they are a threat to society. lawrence. good to see you tonight. you have gone through many of the important details. i have got it as well right here. 50, 5-0 pages is this wrap sheet. 15 charges right here in wisconsin alone. not to mention nevada as well to your point. let's just name them for one moment, lawrence. so multiple drug charges, multiple domestic abuse charges, drug charges, paternity suit charges, sex with a minor, mentioned active in nevada. and assault to the tune of strangulation.

why? why didn't -- was the criminal justice system not reforming this individual or locking him up and throwing away the key in the answer, lawrence is bail reform. it's a democratic policy push of bail reform. he was released in february of this year on $500 bond. he was arrested to your point just a few weeks ago for almost this very same crime using his car to run over someone he was released this time on $1,000 bond, lawrence. this is because there is a d.a. in the waukesha county ends to model milwaukee after san francisco. just to put the cherry on he top here. on this day, on this day, lawrence, alexandria ocasio-cortez tweets out the need for more bail reform to put more criminals on the street like brooks. >> lawrence: you know, will, the nevada charge right there? it was a 15-year-old girl. this is not an isolated event. i have been covering these stories across the country.

minneapolis. put ankle bracelet on people and they go out and murder people. chicago, it's the same thing. filly, i mean, there is this new standard in the democratic party where they don't believe anyone should be locked up. they don't believe in the justice system that should protect the public. justice reform for the perpetrators of the crime. >> we have to talk about the elephant in the room. the elephant in the room is race. listen, i am someone who understands that there is racism is exists in this country. i'm here to address it anyone. including as you and i have on individual level. racism is an individual sin. racism has been turned into an addiction by the democratic party. a power source. the point of bringing up race is what we hear is the system is built for white supremacy. you know we heard that over the last three to four days in the wake of kyle rittenhouse acquittal. we heard that a black suspect would never be taken alive if they were in the same seat as

kyle rittenhouse this man just mowed down five people. took five lice while plowing through a parade and was taken alive. the point is all of this race-baiting, lawrence, this racializing our entire society, it has long-term costs. the long-term cost you will guide this nation on the basis of race and open a very dark and violent place. it has short-term costs as well, lawrence, it puts people like derek wroox on the darrell brooks on the street to increase crime. it puts people on the streets in san francisco to walk away with shoplifting and larceny and raid these stores in san francisco. it has both the short-term effect on our safety and a long-term effect on the health our nation, it's not just lunacy it's endangering our country to racialize. >> lawrence: it's out of control. you show me a battle where there sin justice, and i will be there to fight with you. if you just want criminals street. we can't have that. you we can't have that. will. smash and grab on steroids in

san francisco. while criminals are taking full advantage of the radical d.a.'s destruction that we were just talking about in our justice system coming up on "primetime." system coming up on "primetime." i love liberty mutual. they customize my car insurance, so i only pay for what i need. how about a throwback? ♪ liberty, liberty, liberty, liberty ♪ only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty, liberty, liberty, liberty ♪ ♪♪♪ ♪♪it's a most unusual day♪♪ ♪♪feel like throwing my worries away♪♪ ♪♪as an old native-born californian would say♪♪ ♪♪it's a most unusual day♪♪ ♪♪it's a most unusual sky♪♪ ♪♪not a sign of a cloud passing by♪♪ ♪♪if my heart won't behave in the usual way♪♪ experience the power of sanctuary at the lincoln wish list event. >> man: what's my safelite story? experience the power my truck...is my livelihood. so when my windshield cracked... the experts at safelite autoglass came right to me...

>> lawrence: we were just telling you about liberal d.a.s, another story. chaos reigned supreme. not just wisconsin. the d.a. undermining the rule of law unleashed epidemic of crime across the country. after months of looting in san francisco. dozens have nordstrum and louie vitton. across the country on the same night a 32-year-old pregnant woman shot dead in philadelphia. then sunday morning an up and coming soccer player was stabbed on a new york subway. joining me now kira davis host of listen to yourself podcast and editor-at-large. and jeff charles, contributor for liberty nation dodd come.

california, if you just steal and now crime has ascended on the country. >> oh, lawrence, imagine that. if you change the law so that there is no price to pay for stealing a thousand lawrence, that's the thing you need to grasp here. in california the law is every visit. you can go and as tensively steal a thousand dollars worth of product and leave and go do it again. look at that the laws of human nature ring true as always, which is if you can get away with a crime and you are a criminal, you are going to do it. i don't -- this is not just a matter of d.a.s who are purposely gumming up the works of the system. legislatures passing laws that don't have the interest of the safety of the people in mind. >> lawrence: jesse, you are one of the most funny guys i know. i want you to hear from the san francisco d.a.

you know that big liberal that have all these policies, take a look at this. i'm sorry, this is san francisco. take a look. i'm outraged by the looting in union square last night. we are seeing similar crimes across the country. i have a simple message don't bring that noise to our city. excuse me, sir? stand by for felony charges at the end of it it's already in your city. it's already there. and you brought it there with your policies. >> you can't complain about it when you invited these people to do what they are doing. like the problem -- what's happening here is that we have got these rocket scientists democrats running these cities who think that the best way to combat crime is to defund the police, protect criminals and let violent felons out of prison. we saw how well that worked in wisconsin, didn't we? >> lawrence: that's right. >> you got these people. still seeing stories about soaring homicide rates here in austin record levels. people beating up old women in the street. you got kids being shot because

of gang violence. you have got mass resignations of police officers because of this defund the police movement, which needs to die a slow and painful and agonizing death. but the thing is these groups that are going into these stores like nordstrom and louie louie vitton. they are bringing guns, bringing crowbars and other weapons. weapons. they know they are going to be protected by people like chesa boudin. here is my question, america, when are we going to get fed up with this? >> lawrence: that's exactly right. kira, all the criminals have guns, they are able to do whatever they want. we have defunded the police as jeff said. we are not able to defender ourselves now. >> well, a, this is why we have the second amendment, right? but yeah, this is the problem. and when you give criminals free reign while at the same time restraining law-abiding citizen from doing things like protecting their businesses, you invite trouble like we saw this

past week, lawrence, the trouble that led us to the kyle rittenhouse verdict and all of the trouble surrounding that what is happening it is becoming the citizens vs. the government. the government is not there to do the job that they get paid to do. that we pay them our taxes dearly to do. their job is to create protections for law-abiding citizen. and they have abandoned that job in so many democrat cities across the country. well, then it's left to good, honest people to protect themselves and their businesses. and that is a recipe for conflict between carl's and citizens who really shouldn't be having to do this job but are being forced to do this job by democrat policies. >> lawrence: the audacity of them. they are now going to hire all these irs agents. defund the police get paid they can't perform their basic function of government which is to keep us safe. kira, jess. thank you very much for coming on. afraid your thanksgiving meal is going to cost you an arm and

♪ >> jesse: so good news dr. fauci is giving you permission to enjoy this holiday season but only if you and everybody in your family are vaccinated. >> my recommendation to americans to celebrate safely is get vaccinated as soon as you can. obviously if you are not vaccinated, you are in a situation where you are more vulnerable to getting infected but for the people who are vaccinated the people who can get boosted, enjoy your holiday season with your family indoors, grandparents, children, get yourself vaccinated and you can continue it enjoy interactions with your family and others. >> lawrence: i don't trust him so i'm going to invite someone i do trust and you too. fox news medical contributor dr. marty makary. doctor, thanks so much for joining the program. who can enjoy this thanksgiving and what should we do going into this holiday? >> well, first of all, i disagree with what he said he

said the only way to enjoy yourself is to be vaccinated. 140 million americans with natural immunity and more effective than vaccinated immunity accord tog the data. they want a one size fits all strategy. it's good for marketing, good for simplifying the message. boosters are not supported by the data for young people and not supported with those with natural immunity. that's why the fda experts voted them down for everybody by a 16-2 vote just 8 weeks ago before the second push not them. people should enjoy thanksgiving. for those high risk, for whose who are adults with no immunity of any kind, they are the ones who are susceptible and they need to be super careful. for everyone else they should feel good with their immunity. look at the data one in 26,000 vaccinated people will get hospitalize in the average age is 73 of that one person. >> lawrence: you know, doctor, i'm so glad you brought up the high risk folks the people that are vulnerable. every time i do a segment like

this i is trying to kill people. i want to protect those people. how do we do that? well, look, if you have got some vulnerable folks, ventilation is important. fans, windows that are open. a little distancing. that's always been the case. but we failed as a country to accept that the risk of covid is radically different in different groups. in young people and people with natural immunity. people healthy. and people who are obese. we have never truly stratified that risk and instead we have chosen these indescrum that the blanket recommendations and policies and if you look around the country right now. the southeast is doing terrific. they are basically endemic levels, minnesota and other places they are dealing with an active delta wave right now since they didn't have their delta wave before. >> lawrence: doctor, still a lot of pushback on either getting the vaccine or taking a covid test. we just found out that in memphis, the grizzlies are allowing fans back into the stadium. you don't need to be vaccinated

or a negative covid test. how smart is that? >> look, the sec football games were studied in a formal publication that came out in our top medical journal and found essentially no transmission in these events. and i think the thing again and again we have to remind you are oourselves the risk of transmission is primarily indoor phenomena among at risk people with adults co-morbid condition that have no immunity. >> lawrence: just be smart, that's all. thanks so much, doctor. >> thanks. >> lawrence: even with fauci's permission it's still diagnose to be hard to great the shoold like we used to. just about everything is more expensive. thanksgiving dinner is way up. the price of turkey, dinner rolls, cranberries pie shelves are through the roof. driving anywhere are cost you big. biden any of this. he spent most of his today.

here is what the record shows, record job creation, record economic growth, record new small business creation, that's the story that should give us confidence about the economy that we're building. >> but even biden's media cheerleaders are admitting inflation is receipt. at least they have ideas to save you some money for thanksgiving. >> perhaps forego the turkey. bear with me. i know that is the staple of the thanksgiving meal; however, some people think turkey is overrate sod it tends to be the most expensive thing on the table maybe you do italian feast instead. i will say this, if you tell everyone you are having a thanksgiving without turkey some guests may drop off the list and that's a way to cut does, too. >> now they want to feed vegan turkey monday coagulate crowley former treasury assistant secretary and byron donalds

congressman. will you be missing out for turkey this year? >> first of all, i'm not going to be missing out on turkey no matter what these reporters are trying to say. that's also different because i'm in a place in my life where, yes, i am doing very well, i'm not ashamed of that i worked hard in my early life. i'm elected congress now. i have the means to do what needs to be done and put a turkey on my table. for somebody who is a working poor family of senior on a fixed income. they are struggling with this. so the last thing to joke about is whether they can put a turkey on their plate to me is insane and outrageous, this is what you get from the political left who does not care about the reality in the lives of the american people. the only othing they care about is accomplishing their agenda. >> lawrence: you know, monica, what's missing from this administration is accountability. they won't take accountability for the wreck rose actions and the impact it's having on the measure people. you served during the trump administration. i would imagine that wouldn't fly. >> no, it wouldn't. and actually president trump

through a pro-growth economic agenda of tax cuts and regulatory relief unleashing our great energy sector and fairer trade deals actually delivered a booming economy. we had a goldie locks economy. we had strong economic growth. strong job creation, strong wage growth and loyalty to no inflation. joe biden and the democrats have taken all of those successful policies and put them into reverse. so, of course, you will get the reverse kind of results. and the american people are really suffering. we talk binflation. they are telling us don't put a tucker canny on your table. have a hot dog instead. americans the land of bounty, measure is the land of prosperity and growth. and instead what we have under this president is want and we have got inflation. and you know the democrats for decades have talked about being the champion of the middle guy, the poor, the working classes, the middle classes, well, guess who suffers the most under this kind of skyrocketing inflation,

those very people. and, yet, as you say, lawrence, there is no accountability, they are going full steam ahead with their fundamental transformation of the nation. and they don't care about policies that actually work for the american people. >> you know, congressman, if we can make it to the midterms. we need a new agenda for the country. you are a rising star in the republican party. what do you go out there and tell the american people they want change. even the progressives and the independents that we saw in virginia said they wanted change. make the case for it. the first thing we have to do is we have to get rid of all of these idiotic policies and programs that joe biden has wanted. they just put in this new bill and expansion of the child tax credit and the earned income credit. those things have to go away. we cannot give people money to stay at home. that's not haw our economy functions, the second thing we have got to do we have to actually expand our energy production in the united states. nothing works better for our economy than cheap and consistent energy, which is produced right here at home. that leads to job growth.

it leads to economic growth. the reason why joe biden is talking about -- about all the jobs they have created is because our economy was locked down for a year. people are going to go back to work but none of that has been the responsibility of joe biden because 4 million americans have quit their jobs this year because they were getting money from the federal government. those policies have to stop. so our country can thrive. >> lawrence: well, they want government to be daddy that is the grand scheme plan that they have and they have been wanting that for a minute. do you what government says and they pay. congressman, thanks so much. monica crowley, good seeing you again. coming up, sorry, kamala, looks like joe biden isn't about to step aside after all. find out what he is telling aides about a 2024 run after this. ♪ ♪

>> the biden presidency is off to a rocky start. i know you feel it at home. for the last 11 months we've seen his administration screw up crisis after crisis from afghanistan to open borders to surging inflation. joe biden is failing the american people. his approval rating could be any lower. he tells his allies he plans on running again in 2024. he's already the oldest president ever and he'll be nearly 82 by the next election and that's troubling to many. according to a new fox news poll 53% of americans think biden's age is interfering with the job so democrats, what's worse, a million year old president or kamala harris. your choice? joining me to react, charlie

kirk, fox news contributor. when you look at the president's performance, he's not doing a good job. he doesn't seem like he's fit or has the stamina for the job. he's not remembering certain things. i just know the old joe and he ain't the old joe. tell me, should the american people give him another shot at this? >> well, i think the answer to that is pretty obvious and the fact that so many democrats are actually having to talk about defending the idea that the incumbent would even serve out the rest of his first term is pretty amazing and it's pretty indicative of where we are, but to be sure democrats are in a tough spot because as you point out, as bad as joe biden is, and by the way his poll numbers could still go lower. watching this performance that we've seen so far they could go lower but the alternative to him is so much worse in kamala harris. it's really interesting, i

cannot remember in the past 20 years a public figure like this, especially a president, who has managed to burn through so much good will as joe biden as. a year ago, i would have told you that people may not particularly love him, they may not find him inspiring, but they wouldn't dislike him. he was kind of a hard guy to dislike. man, he has tested that to the hilt, and we're seeing -- obviously we're seeing that in the poll numbers. >> he lied to the american people during the campaign. that's why he hid in his basement. he promised to be a uniter, return to normalcy. meanwhile, we have open borders, people can't get what they want from the store. he boxed the afghanistan withdrawal. it's just basic things that you would think someone who has been in politics over 50 years would be able to handle but he doesn't seem like he's suited for the job, charlie. >> no, exactly. you would think that for a guy whose been doing this his

entirely adult life he might have gotten good at it at a certain point but people have known for a long time he's not very good at it. he's kind of a bumbling idiot and he kind of was when he was in the senate and you wouldn't have put him in charge of anything but i think, you know, when you list through those issues i think that you know, democrats are sort of obsessed with personality. joe biden's problem is not his personality, although he has managed to burn through a lot of good will. his problem are the policies, and -- you listed a number of the issues, where he's completely blown himself up. i defy you to find me one single issue that matters to the american voters that joe biden has succeeded on. >> not one. >> i don't think you can find a single one. no. and even if you were to pick something like getting along with foreign neighbors or something like that, that nobody cares about, no one wins

elections on, he screwed that up as you pointed out in afghanistan. he screwed up our relationship with france. he's made lots of mistakes on the world stage that have done nothing to help america. of course, back home everyone knows that this sort of america last approach, he so badly wants to undo everything, every success president trump had, really doesn't, you know, not only does it not sell here but we're finding out it doesn't sell over there either. >> you know, kamala was the back up plan. meanwhile, the progressives rejected her in the primary, and this is supposed to be the golden child, charlie. >> that's right. it's kind of interesting, you know, she was much beloved, especially in washington. inner corners of washington, everybody was speculating she would be the next rock star of the democratic party. well, not only did that not work out with regular voters, as you point out, even among democratic

primary voters she was national -- flatly rejected. >> i've got to run, charlie. thanks so much for joining us tonight. sean will definitely be hosting tomorrow. tucker has a big interview. that's next. >> tucker: good evening and welcome to tucker carlson tonight. in retrospect it's remarkable, just how dishonest, how thoroughly and intentionally dishonest the media coverage of the rittenhouse story turned out to be. it was a lie. he was not a white supremacist. he was never in the militia. never crossed state lines with a
