They are your standard. You should look at the doctors who are doing this stuff, the nurses too. And they know they're not completely protected. They know their risk and they're doing it anyway. They are our best heroes right now by far. So use that as your standard for what to do as a citizen, because you might be asked to do something that hard. You know, maybe you already are, but not that hard…

So you know I don't even have to look at the comments to hear you say no, no, big brother. We're past that. You want privacy. We're past that. We're past wanting. We're into deciding. If we decide to get rid of the virus we have tools. They're grotesque tools. They're expensive tools. They're tools we may have trouble getting back in the tube, the toothpaste back in the tube I guess. But we have tools. So just know that.
All right, so a poll that said who do you think would be the best pick for vice president, and it was an Emerson poll. And Harris got the most votes, 20%. Second most votes was Yang. Oh, so Andrew Yang, of course very capable person, did exceed expectations in the race but dropped out. But he was learning apparently with the rest of us that his penis disqualifies him for public office.
And how would you like to be Andrew Yang? He joined a team, Team Democrat. You fought for months and months. You lost sleep. You worked hard. You fought and fought for your team. And then your team said thank you very much Andrew Yang, thanks for being part of the process. Now we're going to pick a vice president but we're only going to choose from among people who do not have a penis like you do, Andrew Yang. So the Yang Wang, I call it, hashtag Yang Wang, has disqualified him for a potential, but you know thank goodness if he can't be vice president because he has a penis, at least he can be nominated for the Supreme Court. Okay he can't be nominated for the Supreme Court because he has a penis and he's not black because that's what Joe Biden said. He said it's gonna be a woman, it's gonna be a black one.
Now I applaud him the attitude. I applaud the attitude that you know we should have a Supreme Court that looks like the country. That's not a bad thing. In fact it's a good thing. But how does Andrew Yang feel about that? You know the thing about being liberal is that it's a great idea until somebody comes for your stuff. Until somebody comes for your stuff it's easy to be liberal because you're giving away other people's stuff. But Andrew Yang, they just came for your stuff. How does it feel? And while I don't think you're ready to be a Republican, the Democrats did throw you under a bus, ran over you, and then backed up over you to make sure the job was done. Because it's not enough that you have a penis. You also have the wrong ethnicity for your own

party. Sorry. Let's see now what else we got going on here. I watched much of the debate last night and I'm wondering if you had the same response that I did, which is I don't care. Because the coronavirus is so big in terms of the mental load that it puts on me that my normal high level of interest in presidential politics was maybe 25% of normal. I couldn't get interested. Now part of it is I d…
