JESSE WATTERS (CO-HOST): They've lost the American people. We've had it, Joe Biden has blown this. This was his big mandate, tackling the pandemic, and now no one knows what's going on. It's just too confusing for the American people, and this is the thing he has the highest approval rating on, and that's not going to continue if he keeps this up.
If you have deaths that are not rising, actually deaths continue to fall, they're under 300 daily deaths per day for the last month and a half, and if cases are going up a little bit, if you're vaccinated, that's not your problem. But to slap a mask on your face because other people are not vaccinated? That doesn't make any medical sense. And to now mandate vaccines for federal employees when two-thirds of Blacks and Hispanics have not been vaccinated, it sounds like they're just now punishing people for not being vaccinated instead of saving lives.
Now, you cannot open the southern border to migrants from Mexico and Central America where they're seeing a big rise in cases and expect the Delta not to spread, and the Delta is spreading in Texas, Arizona, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida -- all these southeastern states where, coincidentally, Joe Biden is busing them into. So, if you're really serious about stopping Delta, close the southern border. But what did he do? He closed the northern border to Canada. What sense does that make? It makes no sense.
