you know, debra birx and anthony fauci haven't been in the oval office but this guy is talking about a supplement with no data behind it. there was a lab study that stuck some of this in a test tube in monkey kidney cells with the coronavirus in the tube and seemed to inactivate the virus according to this non-peer reviewed study. bleach would do that. i can't believe we're talking about this. there is nothing here that substantiates this. >> yet, the guy gets a meeting in the white house with the president to discuss this with him? >> yeah, i know. where is the task force? am basketball tore birx isn't in the oval office, the my pillow guy is. this is startling to me. this just seems to keep putting us backwards. >> sanjay, appreciate it. we want to go to john king taking a look at how the politics of the virus, how things may impact the election, john? >> without a doubt this is the pandemic election and you have an incumbent president whose handling will be issue one, issue number two and three. let's go back through history with sanjay. this is cases per 100,000 residents. this i
