former Vice President Joe Biden joins us right now.

Oh, thank you for having me on your show.

They're talking about you at his press conference yesterday, but his His team also said he also said this week that he be open to taking a phone call from you Has that phone call happened?

And if it does, what's the most important thing you want to tell him to do right now?

I'm happy to talk to him, and I just tell him what we found is important to do when we went through.

You have to move swiftly, and then we have to move more rapidly.

You have to remember, implement the defense production.

Active power supply supply commander, create a you know, ah Defense production act for banks that get out.

Small business loans ramp up, testing the whole range of things.

He indicated that I complimented him on dealing with China.

Well, you know, 45 nations had already moved to keep block China's personnel from being able to come in United States before the president moved.

It's about it's about the urgency, and I don't think there's been enough of it.

The president has said many times, and he's worried that the cure is going to be worse than disease does that.

And isn't there a point there that if this lock down goes on for too long, the public health concerns could be could be grave?

Well, the public health concerns can be grave.

And, you know, you saw what's happening in Singapore.

They move very rapidly, toe bring down the Corona virus down to zero, and then they began to open up.

They had very, very tight restrictions in terms of social distancing, etcetera, stain in place.

Now it's coming back, and so you know, we've got what we need.

Most of all, it's not the president fault at all, but we need most of all vaccine.

But in the meantime, we have to take all the efforts we can to make sure we prevent the spread, lower that curve as they talk about and and move from there.

And that's why I think, George, we're going to need not only these last, uh, cares act that that the Congress passed.

We're gonna need at least two more it orations of that, I believe.

And also these new guidelines from the CDC sick saying that they believe that the public now should wear masks in public.

President Trump said he doesn't want to do it.

He's not going to do it, but so but several other leading politicians are.

When you go in and public going forward, will you be wearing a mask?

Look, I think it's important to follow the science.

Listen to the experts, do what they tell you.

Ah, it's you know, you may not look how he may not like how he looks in the mask, but the truth of the matter is that follow the science.

So if I go out in public and I have not gone to commercial places of late, I haven't gone to my local church, et cetera, um, we're no service is actually.

But my my generic point is that you should follow the science and your campaign videos have been quite tough on the president.

Well, look, what I have been saying is that he's moving too slow.

There's but, but the response is his responsibility.

He could immediately fully implement the Defense Production Act, which I and many others call for a long time ago.

There's still no Defense Supply Act, production act for gloves.

Mask all the things first responders need.

We should create a bank defense production act.

We've got to get those small business loans out.

They came out and said, Unless you already have loans with us, unless you've already worked with us, let's have a credit card with us.

Even though their government guaranteed loans were not gonna process those loans, we got to save jobs.

They have to exponentially ramp up testing.

We've been talking about four million tests were going to be available.

You gotta open up enrollment for Obamacare.

This president is trying to take away obamacare across the board was leave people naked to this problem that that we're facing and and we have to finally get some data.

How these how this Corona virus is really hurting African Americans and minority communities.

These are things that should be done now, but you need a supply commander in charge of it all and right out of the White House, right out of a direct response to the president.

So we know where to get what we have to get and get it quickly.

Back in 2014 President Obama's department Homeland Security warned that a devastating pandemic was the highest homeland security risk from a natural cause.

Should your administration have done more to prepare.

You know, George, we set up an office within a pandemic office within the White House way we expanded CDC, the in other countries, so we could be, in fact observed, See, when things were coming, how things were moving, we put people in China.

We I mean, we did a whole lot of things, and they got a very detailed breakdown on this.

Ah, a briefing to the Trump administration when we transitioned out of office.

But the president dismantle almost all of that, and he drastically cut the the budgets for the C D.

C Hey, drastically cut the budget for the, uh anyway.

So he didn't follow through on any of what we see.

We suggest it was a real problem, and it's going to continue to be a problem.

We can do much better than being done now.

And we can eventually get to the place where we can know these.

You can't have, You know, people at the border trying to stop it.

It's not, is it Beyond that capacity, you have to know what's coming.

Words coming from and how to deal with it.

Let's deal with the situation with Captain Bread.
