mark steyn, great to see you. what is this?> well, i hadn't heard that thing from chris murphy until you played it just now, tucker. that's absolutely ridiculous, the idea that trump is in the hospital so his surrogate, putin, will have to do more interference. just to get back to reality, can i -- >> tucker: i would rather live in a country run by putin then chris murphy, i mean it. i would rather live in a country run by anyone -- >> if chris murphy is in the line of succession, i'm on the first plane out of here. the real coders, the chinese communist party, has managed to7 leaders. they put my old chum boris in the intensive care unit and he's never been the same since. he's permanently damage. they put the prime minister of canada's wife, she's had this thing. now we have the president of the united states. this 37th of the g7. that's pretty impressive strike rate. chris murphy is talking about his clapped out stupid 4-year-old russia conspiracy that has nothing to do with anything real anywhere on the planet. >> tucker: t

the only analysis you really need is from a mark steyn, who s not on tv last night, but we will promise. mark steyn, great to see you. >> like many people, i found it terrible, but i'm actually more concerned that the presidential debate commission is so horrified by it that they now want to change the rules to make it more like the traditional, boringly, stultifyingly respectable -- i don't believe in the debate commission, i don't see why a nea in a republa couple of people you vaguely remember from the day before yesterday should have a monopoly on presidential debates. if they do change the rules, i hope the president manages to smash through them the way here did through the format last night. >> tucker: they are not, obviously, interested in ratings, and i'm not quite sure what they're interested in. why do you think the presidential debate commission -- i know why i didn't like last night's debate, but why are they trying to set up a microphone-killing mechanism, or whatever they are doing? >> well, because they always want to over format it. traditionally, these debates -- last

mark steyn, great to see you tonight -- thank you so much. >> thanks a lot, tucker. >> tucker: quickala harris is running as joe biden's running mate, she could very well become our next president. she could certainly be in charge, we don't actually know that much about kamala harris. starting tomorrow, we are to take a look at her record from people who know her, who she really is and tell you what we found, could be interesting. we'll be back tomorrow, 8:00 p.m., the charlotte does the sworn enemy of line come pomposity, smugness, and groupthink. >> sean: executive order to eliminate guns and that she sponsored in the senate medicare for all of the new green deal. >> tucker: we are booking you for tomorrow! >> sean: good show as always, tucker, welcome to hannity. fox news alert, the president set to speak any moment at another massive rally tonight in minnesota. we will dip in throughout the hour, we must get a lot of other news in as well. with the president talks about last night, you will hear it. debate 1 is officially in the history books. if we are going to unpack this but i

mark steyn joins us for that. >> tucker: if you were >> tucker: if you are watching the show back inou may recall you made one of the mistakes you just can't live down no matter how long you live, we referred to the democratic party's vice president nominee as kamala harris rather than kamala harris, it's not like a waving at stevie wonder, this is a big deal. we didn't realize it at the time but now we do, we have been educated there are micro-aggressions and then there is what we did, it was a macro aggression and our friends at the other networks rightly called us out for it. >> her name is pronounced, kamala harris. she is a u.s. citizen qualified running for office, already facing sexist and racist attacks. >> i want you to listen to how tucker carlson, the best he could do was to somehow mangle her name, listen. >> tucker: just tell kamala harris what to say and she will say it, that is the whole point. >> names can be so hard to pronounce sometimes, even names of people who have been on the scene for years. say it with me: kamala >> tucker: hate, racist fox news guy, it's kama

mark steyn is our expert on interpersonal crises and he joins us now for his assessment -- what do youake of this fascinating case study in hypocrisy? >> i'm sympathetic because i think at the strain obviously getting to him. like many celebrated, and in people in our society, he is happy instagram himself standing at top of mount washington in a windstorm wearing a mask just in case any droplets should emerge from his mouth and go down the mountain and out to bangor, maine, to infect the entire town, then he goes to the ferry and goes all the way over to infect nova scotia. one mask list moment from chris cuomo and there goes the planet. but then you see him behind closed doors in the crowded elevator mask list, enjoying the crowded elevator ride, breathing all over the other people as he ascends to his penthouse. that actually is the history of the last seven months and one masked crusader. a literal masquerade. in denmark, people have worn masks or face coverings in this situation, they did in the 1665 great plague of london, a lot of people went about with face coverings, there is

mark steyn is never confused, which is why we are grateful to have them as we are tonight.dent? >> i think that's a very telling quotation, tucker. senator harris seems to be contemplating a situation in which joe biden might still be around as a ceremonial figurehead, he will get to host the banquets when angela merkel or [indiscernible] flies in, but he will be the equivalent of a constitutional monarch and i think senator harris sees herself as being more of a prime minister. shelby setting most of the actual policies and running the ship. i think that somewhere deep down i think that's how she sees it. >> tucker: so does that mean that president biden would affect the royal way for the hand rotates like that? >> [laughs] yes. that's actually trickier than it is. >> tucker: i couldn't pull it off as a commoner. >> they need to spend a lot of time in his basement. i mean, to be serious for a moment here, tucker, nobody knows who kamala harris is and -- actually that was -- we are going to make you governor general of the solomon islands. i just got a telegram from bucking
