perdue. sen. perdue: again, we hear idle comments we have heard before. almost a dozen people in the state of georgia, 8000 people in the state of georgia. we all know them. this has been a tragedy of immeasurable proportion. it is easy to look back at the question, but one of the things we have to recognize in this virus is the earlier responsibility. china was responsible for this, and we have learned a lot about the virus, who is most vulnerable, what we need to do to protect them. what we have to do is hold china accountable. jon ossoff will not be the one to do this. in the last two years, he has been working for a company owned by the communist chinese government, and in the last debate, he denied that. the question tonight is moving forward, instead of looking back, we have got to get a vaccine, accelerate it, and we have done this. we put money behind this accelerating treatment regimens and get the money back into the state. democrats are blocking the aid we want to bring back to the stat

am i you get the final question in this round and that is to senator perdue. >> senator perdue duringrump administration you closely aligned yourself to the president and according to a constitutional pulpit he presented george's people disapprove of the job the president is doing. you will need some of those voters to win this election and what is your message to them? >> first of all in six years i've traveled all over the state and listen to people and their troubles and how they are trying to deal with the federal government that's been blown down to size but even a pandemic we reached out to 1 million georgians and listened and tried toht help them get through this crisis. what i talk about is this, results. after eight years of the lost economic output in u.s. history we turn this around and have now going on. covid the greatest economic turnaround in u.s. history. 7.5 million jobs in the highest of employment ever measured the lowestn african-american and asian and hispanic unemployment. from the great society where they did not move the party at all in the last three and a a h

david perdue. >>perdue: it seems to me i -- idle chatter here.t we really did is brought help to the pupil of georgia, in hospitals, schools, communities and in the workplace. while john ossof opposed ppp his own father took out a ppp loan, saving 1 million and have jobs in georgia. he will not answer that honestly for the people of georgia, why he imposed a ppp line. we need to build our strategic reserve, develop a quicker way to develop vaccines. we had to knock out a lot of democratically originated regulations in order to begin to do that. no way to stand up to the next virus, if we don't get the financial house in order, we comfortable trillion dollars, we may not have the right to do that later. >>moderator: john ossof. >> ossof: i'm astounded. it is not idle chatter. it is 220,000 americans killed by a virus that you told us, excuse me, senator. 220,000 -- i will wait for my time to be restored. are you done? >>perdue: not by a long shot. >> ossof: 226,000 americans have been killed and listen to you, schoolyard insults. not a shred of em

a spokesman for the perdue campaign, senator perdue simply misr mispronounced senator harris' name and he didn't mean anything by it. he was making an argument against the radical socialist agenda she and her endorsed candidate are pushing. it's obvious that was kind of a trump, fox news thing to do. what does that have to do with her on your policy agenda? that's my question. >> well, this is all they have. racist jokes and these outlandish allegations, mischaracterizing the policy platform of the biden/harris ticket. and mischaracterizing my agenda to try to make people afraid. this is about fear and division. this is the stock and trade of the president of the united states and his acolytes. there is a reason that senator perdue is called trump's favorite senator. by the way, this whole yes, sir, no, sir, three bags full routine that perdue has done with donald trump for the last four years. georgia hasn't gotten anything for it. our farmers still had to wait nearly two years for emergency-hurricane relief. we are not even benefitting from the fact that every single favor that presi

but this is not david perdue's seat.. >> joining us now jon ossoff, candidate for united states senate in the state of georgia. how surprised were you that david perdue had decided he had enough? >> well, he didn't have a good outing at our most recent debate, lawrence. but imagine being a sitting united states senator in the midst of the most significant national crisis in decades so afraid of answering for your record during that crisis that you cancel a long scheduled debate on the eve of the election with just hours until that debate is scheduled to begin. it is the height of cowardice. don't we deserve better than this? nearly a quarter of a million americans have been killed by this virus which my opponent said was no deadlier than the ordinary flu, and the man won't even show up to answer for his arrogance. it's the height of cowardice and why he's going to lose on tuesday. >> did you have something planned or something expected to say on sunday night you've not yet said in these debates? >> i just expected to tel

he's a democratic candidate running to replace senator perdue. thank you, john, i appreciate you joining us. >> thanks, don. >> perdue knows how to pronounce ca kamala harris' name. why is he willfully missed pronouncing it and making it a joke. why is he doing it? >> this is what president trump has done to republicans in the nate. this is performative bigotry. perdue does not want to talk about how tens of thousands have died due to the gross -- he does not want to talk about how they are rushing right now to rip health insurance from people. instead what he wants to do is laugh at the first time of the democratic nominee for vice president because it is an immigrant name. it is low. it is bigoted and it is wrong. he needs to apologize not just to senator harris but to the indian american community in georgia and across the country. >>. >> there was an incident of you drawing your nose or making your nose bigger, can you remind our viewers about that in. >> senator perdue has shown his true color during this campaign. he was running an anti sym

i'm available to debate senator perdue any time, anywhere.nt to answer tough questions about his personal financial misconduct, about his disastrous performance during this covid-19 pandemic, assuring us this was no deadlier than the ordinary flu, while he rearranged his stock portfolio to profit. and his record on health care, trying to take health care away from his own constituents in the middle of a pennsylvania. >> as we noted, you're in the midst of a very tight senate race. what's the impact of having two contested senate seats where democrats are competitive and a competitive presidential race in red state georgia? >> well, georgia is the most competitive state in the country. as you mentioned, we're the only state with two senate races that wants them. i'm running alongside the senior pastor at ebenezer baptist church, the other democrat in the race. we have all of the momentum here. but we have got to turbo charge our turnout efforts in these final day, especially because we still see that black voters are being made to wait outrage

the average polling in your state shows you in a tie with david perdue. you 45, david perdue at 46.look bad for an incumbent running for re-election in georgia. >> well, lawrence, as you know stacey abrams only missed in that governors race two years ago by 50,000 votes. we've added nearly 800,000 new voters to the rolls here since then. georgia becomes younger and more diverse by the hour. and georgians like all americans are standing up right now to elect leaders who unify us, who inspire us, who will heal the wounds of these last 4 years so that we can solve problems. we're in the middle of a crisis, a public health emergency that's killed nearly a quarter of a million people. and my opponent is up on stage with an opportunity to address the state and the nation and provide some hope and am guidance and to speak about the path forward. he wastes his time, his platform and his office with this kind of nonsense. it's why his campaign is spiraling. he's wildly out of touch with the people of this state. but i need help overcoming voter suppression here. lawrence, turnout is through

now, keep in mind what senator perdue's office tells us tonight. they simply mispronounced her name. didn't mean anything by it.

perdue announcing he's not going to show up to the final debate.ig rally with president trump. why would he prefer playing to a friendly crowd at a trump rally over a chance to debate his challenger, win folks over. maybe this moment between the two at last night's debate says why. >> perhaps he would have been able to properly respond to the pandemic if you hadn't been fending off multiple investigations for insider trading. it's not just that you're a crook, senator, it's that you're attacking the health of the people that you represent. you did say covid-19 was no deadlier than the flu. you did say there would be no significant uptick in cases. all the while you were looking al your own assets in your own portfolio and did vote four times to end protections for preexisting conditions. four times. and the legislation that you tout, the protect act, includes loopholes that specifically allow insurance companies to deny policies to georgians with preexisting conditions. can you look now in the camera and tell the people of this state why you voted

this is senator perdue. >> these are not activists, these are constitutionalists. they are there to protect you and me. insidious thing that chuck schumer and joe biden are trying to perpetrate and bernie and others and kamala or whatever., amy: her name is kamala harris and she is the vice presidential candidate. i want to ask you, professor anderson, about the effect in the impact of stacey abrams and her organization fair fight, what it has meant? because whether it is georgia or florida or anywhere in this country talking about people's right to vote, something you have spent a great deal time examining? >> one of the key things is that stacey abrams ran for governor was ban herpponent kim come the sretary of state, who did not recuse hself but engaged in massive vot suppressio efforts to win that election. stacey abrams did not concede. when you hear her non-concession speech, you know you're looking at a woman who understands that in order to get the democracy back on track, it is not just about an elected office. it is about doing the heavy lifting of democr

well, it's not a good sign for david perdue. that said, look at this. there have been, i think, 11 polls in that senate race conducted this month, in the month of october. of those 11 polls, five of them show david perdue ahead, five of them show jon ossoff ahead, and the 11th one was a tie. so, yeah, georgia, oh, my lord, does your vote count this year. georgia residents, get thee to the polls. again, it is too late to trust your ballot to the u.s. mail service. if you've got a ballot at home, bring it in. whether or not you were planning on voting early, vote early. >>> just in case you didn't think it was high drama enough already around this election, right? i mean, it's the presidential race, it's the senate races, it's everything, right, with huge numbers of early votes and the u.s. mail no longer being a reliable way to get your ballot in at this late date, so everybody who still has a ballot now has to hand deliver it, and nobody knows how many people are going to be voting on election day. really, truly, nobody knows that. and the courts all ov

whatever. >> jon ossoff is the democrat who is running against david perdue.d mention he's running neck and neck against david perdue in georgia. the ossoff campaign has provided those remarks. senator perdue serves in the united states with kamala harris. he knows what her name is. he knows that it's not kamaumauma or any other iterations he tried on with that smirk. his staff has now issued a statement. it says, quote, senator perdue simply mispronounced senator harris' name and he didn't mean anything by it. he was making an argument against the radical socialist agenda that he and her endorsed candidate jon ossoff are pushing. obviously that's not an apology. as i mentioned, senator perdue has served in the senate with senator harris not just for a minute but for over three years now. so there's no reason to think he actually has trouble pronouncing her name. but doing it for racist effect before a braying almost all-white crowd must be fun for him. the latest polling again in david perdue's effort to hold on to his senate seat shows him locked neck and ne

perdue: we actually passed a law john. we did something and that something you could of done 26 years with your party did not do a thing d. your billionaire buddies want you to defend the police and you have been to rallies where the signs they abolish the police and you said he will beat them down to where they cannot raise their hand. so what i'm talking about these fraternal order policeman know you will not have their back that's what they endorsed me. host: moving on john you have final question in this segment for mr. hazel. ossoff: grateful for your presence here and in the race in your consistent principles. senator produce several years ago said he thought the department of education should be abolished and also abolishing the epa. i don't know if he still holds those views but what are your thoughts based on your libertarian principles on those agencies and the role they play in government and society? hazel: that's the first time you ati mentioned my name ever what you think is an active suppression. but with th

ossoff tweeted last night that perdue canceled the event.s came one day after the two faced off in a second fiery debate. a spokesman for senator perdue confirms that he did cancel the event but says it's because president trump will be in georgia campaigning and perdue intends to be by his side. on wednesday night, ossoff repeatedly attacked perdue for his response to the coronavirus pandemic in this clip that went viral online. >> well, perhaps, senator perdue would have been able to respond properly to the covid-19 pandemic if you hadn't been fending off multiple federal investigations for insider trading. it's not just that you're a crook, senator, it's that you're attacking the health of the people that you represent. you did say covid-19 was no deadlier than the flu. you did say there would be no significant uptick in cases. all the while, you were looking after your own assets and your own portfolio, and you did vote four times to end protections for pre-existing conditions. four times. >> yikes! georgia, a spot to watch over the cour

>> perdue has served in the senate alongside harris for nearly four years.his was just the latest instance of race-baiting by perdue. the senator's communications director responded in a statement on friday, reading, "senator perdue simply mispronounced senator harris' name and he didn't mean anything by it. he was making an argument against the radical socialist agenda that she and her endorsed candidate, jon ossoff, are pushing, which includes the green new deal, medicare for all, raising taxes, and holding up covid relief for the people of georgia." senat senator perdue's democratic challenger, jon ossoff, tweeted out the video and "we are so much better than this" and the campaign raised $2 million from donors thanks to that moment from perdue. somehow, perdue didn't mispronounce any of the other senators' names that he had listed right there. and i'm not sure any reasonable person watching that would sense that it was anything other than intentional because he said a version of her name several times. >>> still ahead here, some of president trump's aide

and i'm ready to debate senator perdue.his handlers decided that they don't want him out on the debate stage anymore. he doesn't have good answers to the questions georgians are asking him. why he was buying stock the same day the senate got a briefing on covid-19. he feels entitled to his seat and he's running from open debate. >> you've got two senate races in georgia, and everyone's watching this because of the georgia rules. you've got three candidates. what is the likelihood of avoiding a runoff? >> well, we're working hard right through the finish. we're in macon, georgia, on the road today, hence this picture-esque backdrop behind me. we are working hard to protect ballot access. but that's my most important message to folks out there. you want to see us defeat senator david perdue. this is the same guy who because he doesn't want to talk about covid-19, stooped to mocking kamala harris' heritage at a presidential rally. this is the same guy who was buying stock in manufacturers at medical equipment the same day the

if anything, perdue is just showing off that he doesn't pay attention at work.ing someone on the lakers say that they have teammates with labirn germaiz, like dude, you have been checked out for awhile, haven't you. the question is, why would senator perdue act like kamala harris' name is that hard to say. camma kamalaalality, what is he doing. he is making a racist joke, was he doing racism? that sounds like a case for trevor noah racism detective yeah, it's racist. all right, we have to talk a quick break but don't go away because when we come back michael kosta learns what professional liars think about donald trump and crust rock is stul coming up. we'll be right back. i can't believe it. what? that our new house is haunted by casper the friendly ghost? hey jill! hey kurt! movies? i'll get snacks! no, i can't believe how easy it was to save hundreds of dollars on our car insurance with geico. i got snacks! ohhh, i got popcorn, i got caramel corn, i got kettle corn. am i chewing too loud? believe it! geico could save you fifteen percent or more on car insuran

good to be with you. >> would you like an apology from senator perdue? >> look, we're not focused on the comments by senator perdue, and we don't have much time for name calling. we've got 17 days till election day. senator harris is not focused on that. our campaign is not focused on it. what we are focused on, though, is doing everything we can to make our case to the american people about why joe biden and kamala harris would be best to serve over the next four years. >> senator harris has to get a little tired, though, of people dragging her name through the mud, literally. i mean, this was pretty well below the belt. isn't the senator interested at all in senator perdue either being held accountable or at least saying he's sorry? >> look, i think the american people are focused on -- senator harris is not focused on this. our campaign is not focused on this. what again we are focused on is winning. and look, on election day they won't be talking about who called who names throughout the course of this campaign. donald trump has been calling folks na

so now you're up obviously with senator perdue, up against another veteran politician.dum election on this president. why do you believe, jon, this time will turn out differently for you? >> here is what is so exciting about these two senate races in georgia right now. remember, we're the only state with two senate races in a single state in a single year. georgia literally becomes younger and more diverse by the hour. there is a multiracial, multigenerational coalition demanding change. stacey abrams only lost the governor's race two years ago by 50,000 votes. and we've added nearly 800,000 voters to the rolls since then. georgia is changing. and the new georgia rejects bigoted mockery of political adversaries as a distraction from substance and wants political leaders who unify and inspire us to take on something like covid-19. to rebuild our economy, to invest in making america the global leader in innovation again. the kinds of goals and vision that can bring this country together and stand in stark contrast to division and fear of donald trump and david perdue. >>

perdue's spokesman said in a tweet, "senator perdue simply mispronounced senator harris' name and he about it. he was making an argument against the radical socialist agenda that she and her endorsed candidate, jon ossoff, are pushing." perdue, by the way, is in a tight re-election battle in georgia. >> he is behind in the polls in many of those georgia polls right now. >>> the rapper who gave us "f the police" has many fans wondering, what the f? ice cube is clearing the air, trying to, after coming under heavy criticism for contributing to the trump campaign's platinum plan for black americans. >> the trump campaign came to me and asked me to explain to them some of the contract with black america. that's what i did. i'm not playing no more of these games, these political games. we're not part of a team. we have very broad problems, especially the wealth gap in this country when it comes to black americans. so, i'm going to whoever's in power and i'm going to speak to them about our problems, specifically. i'm not going there talking about minorities. i'm not going there to talk ab

perdue will attend an event with president trump. between perdue and ossoff became heated and personal. both senate seats in georgia are up for grabs. in the other ace, republican incumbent, kelly loeffler is being met with skepticism for claiming she was not familiar with the inflames trump access hollywood tape. it was a tape so widely covered it played all the time back in 2016 that the president even had to apologize for it. seems pretty unbelievable that she wouldn't be familiar with it. >>> dan coats says he has seen no evidence of widespread fraud despite president trump's unfounded claim that the upcoming election is going to be corrupt. coats just gave his first television interview since the president removed him as director of national intelligence last july, and he had a strong warning about election day and beyond. >> the nightmare scenario is that on election night, people will draw conclusions or days after it will draw conclusions that their candidate has been denied the victory. and that public riots will result, and

said senator perdue simply mispronounced senator harris' name and didn't mean anything by it. really? really? de deepa, no one is buying this, if he had miss pronounced her name once, we would have bought it. at that point when he said kamala-mala-mala, we know he was making fun of her name. >> reporter: yeah, there's a lot to unpack there. but you saw that statement from senator perdue's communication person saying he didn't mean anything by it it wasn't deliberate. if you zoom out a little bit, yasmin, this is something that we've seen from president trump pretty consistently as well. he knows how to pronounce kamala harris' name, kamala, he says and then he'll call her kamala and mispronounce that deliberately as well. it's not something from senator perdue in georgia but the president it happening pretty consistently. kamala harris' campaign has tweeted and called that racist. you're seeing folks on asian-american heritage, indian american heritage, where kamala harris' name comes from. sharing #what my name mean. and sharing that pride in heritage and culture. what you're

it's a sign of respect and i have no doubt that senator perdue knows how to do that.ve served on the same committee. i would humbly suggest to the senator that he sends her a note of apology and says i didn't mean anything by that. i don't think he was making a racist statement. i think he got tongue tied and i think he tried to make a joke to cover it over and it came out rather clumsy. so i don't agree with the attacks that it's racism. but i think in politics we ought to show each other the kind of respect that we would want to be showed ourselves. so in this particular case the correct move would be for him to send her a note of apology and say i didn't mean anything disrespectful here and that would show us all that what scott bolden said is not true, which is that this had anything to do with race or anything else. >> the fact of the matter is because i may not disagree with you, but the impact of his racial or gender insensitivity, you can't ignore the impact of it, whether his attempt was race neutral. that's why he should send out an apology or give her a cal

we have david perdue, who could not run fast enough to his brokers to monetize what he knew about theonavirus and its effects on our communities. we have doug collins and kelly loeffler who are racing to the bottom towards crazy and qanon. so i am so excited for the first time to be voting for candidates on the lower ballot. we have rafale more knock. they have a real chance in georgia to turn our state blue so i'm super excited. can you speak to those candidates for me? thank you. guest: georgia is really a fascinating state in 2020 and, of course, joe biden is going to be traveling to georgia, which is big news because, for the most part, democrats have focused their energy on what we would consider the core battleground states in the upper midwest and states like florida and arizona. but in georgia, there's a chance that both of those senate races on the ballot end up going to a january 5 runoff. the calculus for democrats in the state is that they need to run up the margins in both atlanta and the atlanta suburbs. we mentioned georgia's six districts, but democrats have a pickup o

now, keep in mind what senator perdue's office tells us tonight. they simply mispronounced her name. didn't mean anything by it. you heard it. he said her name four different ways and then tacked on malala. i don't know. whatever he said. it's disrespectful and their statements -- their statement insults your intelligence. so, even though senator perdue's office has, clearly, given us a bad-faith explanation, i am going to help a brotha out, here. okay? so, what is this, on your screen? we'll look at some punctuation marks. that is a question mark. okay. now, what is this? next to the question mark, that is an exclamation mark. so, what is this, now, next to the question mark and the exclamation mark? that is a comma. kamala. add a la. comma plus la is kamala. so, think about a simple pun punctuation mark. so easy. there, i fixed it for you, senator. you're welcome. but this is right in line with the president's mocking his perceived, political enemies. this campaign is always trying to make black people seem different, foreign, unamerican, suspici

the fact that he has to go to georgia for his own reelection prospects but also to help senator perdue's race right now is a toss-up between him and john als is an indication with e trend line. i'm not sure where my colleague is getting the indication that joe biden is bleeding right now, the real clear politics averages tipped ten plus points and he's leading in every single crucial swing state. i have ptsd about 2016 just like every other democrat and we are playing each day like it counts and that president trump could win because there's still a 20% chance that he could and we saw how that worked out last time around. there is no question that he is the one on the back foot and the closing argument that the biden family is an organized crime family is going to bomb. >> jon: you say there is a comparison to the carter-reagan race. >> i think there is. at this time in 1980, ronald reagan was about eight points behind and he won by about nine and a half points. every two days, trump seems to pick up a point and he's down five. he's not a head the traditional poles that he is gaining g
