ENGLISH SPEECH US PRESIDENTIAL DEBATES 2020 Highlights English Subtitles


“The last four years, you have promised to repeal  and replace Obamacare, but you have never in these  

four years come up with a plan, a comprehensive  plan —” “Yes, I have.” “— to replace Obamacare.”  

“Of course I have.” “Well, I’ll give you —” “We  got rid of the individual mandate.” “I’m going to  

give you an opportunity —” “Excuse me. I got rid  of the individual mandate.” “I’m not here to call  

out his lies — everybody knows he’s a liar.” “But  you agreed — Joe, you’re the liar.” “I want to  

make sure —” “You graduated last in your class,  not first in your class.” “I — [laughs] — God.  

I want to make sure —” “Mr. President, could  you let him finish, sir?” “The question  

is, the question is —” “A lot of new Supreme Court  justices, radical left —” “Will you shut up, man?”  

“One of the big debates we had with 23 of my  colleagues trying to win the nomination that I won  

were saying that Biden wanted to allow  people to have private insurance still.  

They can, they do, they will, under my  proposal.” “That’s not what you’ve said,  

and it’s not what your party has said.” “That is  simply a lie.” “Your party doesn’t say it — your  

party wants to go socialist medicine.” “My party  is me. Right now, I am the Democratic Party.” “And  

they’re going to dominate you, Joe, you know  that.” “I am the Democratic Party right now.  

The platform of the Democratic Party —”  “Not according to Harris.” “— is what I,  

in fact, approved of.” “Is it true that you paid  $750 in federal income taxes each of those two  

years?” “I’ve paid millions of dollars in taxes,  millions of dollars of income tax. Let me just say  

something, that it was the tax laws. I don’t want  to pay tax. Before I came here, I was a private  

developer, I was a private business people. Like  every other private person, unless they’re stupid,  

they go through the laws, and that’s what it  is.” “I’m going to eliminate the Trump tax  

cuts.” “Good.” “And we’re going to, I’m going to  eliminate those tax cuts —” “OK.” “— and make sure  

that we invest in the people who in fact need  the help. People out there need help.” “But why  

didn’t you do it over 20, the last 25 years?”  “Because you weren’t — because you weren’t  

president screwing things up.” “You were a senator  —” “You’re the worst president America has ever  

had. Come on.” “You have repeatedly criticized the  vice president for not specifically calling out  

antifa and other left-wing —” “That’s right.” “—  extremist groups. But are you willing tonight to  

condemn white supremacists and militia groups —”  “Sure.” “— and to say that they need to stand down  

and not add to the violence in a number of these  cities, as we saw in Kenosha and as we’ve seen  

in Portland.” “Sure, I’m willing to do that, but  —” “Then do it.” “Go ahead, sir.” “I would say, I  

would say almost everything I see is from the left  wing, not from the right wing.” “So what are you,  

what are you saying —” “I’m willing to do anything  — I want to see peace.” “Well, then do it, sir.”  

“Say it. Do it. Say it.” “You want to call them  — what do you want to call them? Give me a name,  

give me a name.” “White supremacists and —” “Go  ahead, who would you like me to condemn?” “Proud  

Boys.” “Who?” “White supremacists and right-wing  militia.” Proud Boys, stand back and stand by. But  

I’ll tell you what, I’ll tell you what. Somebody’s  got to do something about antifa and the left,  

because this is not a right-wing problem, this  is a left-wing —” “His own F.B.I. director said  

the threat is —” Are you questioning  —” “No, I think masks are OK.  

You have to understand, if you look, I mean,  I have a mask right here. I put a mask on,  

you know, when I think I need it. Tonight as an  example, everybody’s had a test, and you’ve had  

social distancing and all of the things that  you have to — but I wear masks when needed.  

When needed, I wear masks.” “OK, let me ask —”  “I don’t wear masks like him — every time you  

see him, he’s got a mask. He could be speaking 200  feet away from — he shows up with the biggest mask  

I’ve ever seen.” “Masks make a big difference.  His own head of the C.D.C. said if we just wore  

masks between now — if everybody wore masks  in social distance between now and January,  

we’d probably save up to 100,000 lives. It  matters.” “And they’ve also said the opposite.  

They’ve also said —” “No serious person said the  opposite.” “The fact is that there are going to be  

millions of people because of Covid that are going  to be voting by mail-in ballots, like he does by  

the way. And this is all about trying to dissuade  people from voting, because he’s trying to scare  

people into thinking that it’s not going to be  legitimate.” “As far as the ballots are concerned,  

it’s a disaster. A solicited ballot, OK? Solicited  is OK. You’re soliciting, you’re asking. They send  

it back. You send it back. I did that. This  is going to be a fraud like you’ve never seen.  

The other thing: It’s nice, on Nov. 3, you’re  watching and you see who won the election.  

And I think we’re going to do well, because people  are really happy with the job we’ve done. But you  

know what? We won’t know, we might not know for  months — because these ballots are going to be  

all over.” “Now that millions of mail-in ballots  have gone out, what are you going to do about it?  

And are you counting on the Supreme Court,  including a Justice Barrett, to settle any  

dispute?” “Yeah, I think I’m counting on them to  look at the ballots, definitely. I don’t think  

we’ll — I hope we don’t need them in terms of the  election itself, but for the ballots, I think so.  

I am urging my supporters to go into the polls and  watch very carefully because that’s what has to  

happen. I am urging them to do it. I am urging my  people — I hope it’s going to be a fair election.  

If it’s a fair election —” “You’re urging them  what?” “— I am 100 percent on board. But if I see  

tens of thousands of ballots being manipulated, I  can’t go along with that.” “Here’s the deal: They  

count the ballots. As you’ve pointed out, some of  these ballots in some states can’t even be opened  

until Election Day. And if there’s thousands of  ballots, it’s going to take time to do it. No one  

has established at all that there is fraud related  to mail-in ballots, that somehow it’s a fraudulent  

process.” “It’s already been established.” “He has  no idea what he’s talking about. Here’s the deal.  

The fact is, I will accept it, and he will too.  You know why? Because once the winner is declared,  

after all the ballots are counted, all the  votes are counted, that will be the end of it.”

“If  

we just wore these masks, the president’s  own advisers have told him, we could save  

100,000 lives. And we’re in a circumstance  where the president, thus far, still has  

no plan, no comprehensive plan.” “You also  said a vaccine will be coming within weeks.”  

“Yes.” “Is that a guarantee? Is —” “No, it’s not a  guarantee, but it will be by the end of the year.  

But I think it has a good chance — there are two  companies — I think within a matter of weeks.  

And it will be distributed very quickly.” “This  is the same fellow who told you this was going to  

end by Easter last time. This is the same fellow  who told you that, don’t worry, we’re going to end  

this by the summer. We’re about to go into a dark  winter, a dark winter. And he has no clear plan,  

and there’s no prospect that there’s going  to be a vaccine available for the majority  

of the American people before the middle of next  year.” “President Trump, your reaction. He says  

you have no plan.” “I don’t think we’re going to  have a dark winter at all. We’re opening up our  

country. We’ve learned and studied and understand  the disease.” “He says that we’re, you know, we’re  

learning to live with it. People are learning  to die with it. You folks home who have an empty  

chair at the kitchen table this morning. That man  or wife going to bed tonight and reaching over to  

try to touch their — out of habit, where their  wife or husband was — is gone. Learning to live  

with it? Come on. We’re dying with it.” “I take  full responsibility. It’s not my fault that it  

came here. It’s China’s fault. And you know what?  It’s not Joe’s fault that it came here either.  

It’s China’s fault. First of all, I’ve already  done something that nobody thought was possible:  

Through the legislature, I terminated the  individual mandate. That is the worst part  

of Obamacare. He’s talking about socialized  medicine, and when he — and health care. When he  

talks about a public option, he’s talking about  destroying your Medicare —” “Wrong.” “Totally  

destroyed. And destroying your Social Security.  And this whole country will come down. You know,  

Bernie Sanders tried it in his state. He  tried it in his state. His governor was a  

very liberal governor. They wanted to make  it work —” “O.K, let’s hear, let’s let Vice  

President Biden respond —” “It’s impossible to  work — it doesn’t work.” “He’s a very confused  

guy. He thinks he’s running against somebody  else. He’s running against Joe Biden. I beat all  

those other people because I disagreed with them.  Joe Biden he’s running against.” “Mr. President,  

your administration separated children from  their parents at the border, at least 4,000 kids.  

You’ve since reversed your zero-tolerance  policy, but the United States can’t locate  

the parents of more than 500 children. So  how will these families ever be reunited?”  

“Children are brought here by coyotes and lots  of bad people, cartels. And they’re brought here,  

and they used to use them to get into our country.  We now have as strong a border as we’ve ever had.  

We’re over 400 miles of brand-new wall.  You see the numbers. And we let people in,  

but they have to come in legally.”  “These 500-plus kids came with  

parents. They separated them at the border to  make it a disincentive to come to begin with.  

Big, real tough — we’re really strong.  And guess what? They cannot — it’s not,  

coyotes didn’t bring them over. Their parents were  with them. They got separated from their parents.  

And it makes us a laughingstock and violates every  notion of who we are as a nation. A black parent,  

no matter how wealthy or how poor they are, has  to teach their child, when you’re walking down the  

street, don’t have a hoodie on when you go across  the street. Making sure that you, in fact, if you  

get pulled over, ‘Yes, sir,’ ‘No, sir,’ hands  on top of the wheel. Because you are, in fact,  

the victim, whether you’re a person making, child  of a $300,000-per-year person or someone who’s on  

food stamps.” “I got criminal justice reform done  and prison reform and opportunity zones. I took  

care of Black colleges and universities. I don’t  know what to say. They can say anything. I mean,  

they can say anything. It’s a very — it  makes me sad because I am, I am the least  

racist person. I can’t even see the audience  because it’s so dark, but I don’t care who’s in  

the audience: I’m the least racist person in this  room.” “He pours fuel on every single racist fire,  

every single one. He started off his campaign  coming down the escalator, saying he’s going  

to get rid of those Mexican ‘rapists.’ He’s  banned Muslims because they’re Muslims. He has  

moved around and made everything worse across the  board.” “I have one final question —” “Would he  

close down the oil industry? Would you close down  the oil industry?” “By the way, I would transition  

from the oil industry, yes.” “Oh, that’s a big  statement!” “I would transition — it is a big  

statement.” “That’s a big statement!” “Because I  would stop —” “Why would you do that?” “Because  

the oil industry pollutes significantly.”  “Oh, I see!” “Here’s the deal.” “That’s a big  

statement.” “But you can’t do that — well, if you  let me finish the statement — because it has to  

be replaced by renewable energy over time, over  time. And I’d stop giving to the oil industry,  

I’d stop giving them federal subsidies.” “Ooh!”  “He won’t give federal subsidies to the gas,  

excuse me, to the, to solar and wind.” “Yeah.”  “Why are we giving it to oil industry?” “Imagine  

this is your inauguration day. What will you  say in your address to America, to Americans  

who did not vote for you?” “We have to make our  country totally successful as it was prior to the  

plague coming in from China. Success is going to  bring us together. We are on the road to success.  

But I’m cutting taxes, and he wants to raise  everybody’s taxes. And he wants to put new  

regulations on everything.” “What is on the  ballot here is the character of this country.  

Decency, honor, respect, treating people with  dignity, making sure that everyone has an even  

chance. And I’m going to make sure you get that.  You haven’t been getting it the last four years.”

“过去四年,你承诺要废除 和取代奥巴马医改,但在这四年里,你从来没有

拿出一个计划,一个全面的 计划——” “是的,我有。” “——取代奥巴马医改。”

“当然,我有。” “好吧,我会给你——” “我们 摆脱了个人授权。” “我

“ 我们与我赢得提名的 23 位同事进行的一场大辩论

是,拜登希望让 人们仍然拥有私人保险。

根据我的提议,他们可以,他们会,他们会 。” “这不是你说的

,也不是你的党说的。” “那 简直是个谎言。” “你的党没有说——你的

党想走社会主义医学。” “我的派对 就是我。 现在,我是民主党。” “而且

他们会支配你,乔,你知道 的。” “我现在是民主党。

民主党的纲领——” “哈里斯不这么认为。” “——事实上,这是我

认可的。” “这两年你每年缴纳 750 美元的联邦所得税是真的

吗?” “我已经缴纳了数百万美元的税款, 数百万美元的所得税。 让我

说点什么,那就是税法。 我 不想纳税。 在我来这里之前,我是一名私人

开发商,我是一名私人商人。 就像 所有其他私人一样,除非他们是愚蠢的,否则

他们会遵守法律,这就是 事实。” “我要取消特朗普的

减税政策。” “好的。” “我们要,我要 取消那些减税政策——” “好的。” “——并

确保我们投资于那些实际上 需要帮助的人。 外面的人需要帮助。” “但

你为什么不超过 20 年,过去 25 年?” “因为你不是——因为你不是

总统把事情搞砸了。” “你是参议员 ——” “你是美国有史以来最糟糕的

总统。 来吧。” “你一再批评 副总统没有专门

点名反法和其他左翼——” “—— 极端主义团体。 但是你今晚愿意

谴责白人至上主义者和民兵组织吗——” “当然。” “——并且说他们需要停下来

,不要加剧这些城市的暴力 ,就像我们在基诺沙和

波特兰看到的那样。” “当然,我愿意这样做,但是 ——” “那就去做吧。” “去吧,先生。” “我会说,我

男孩。” “谁?” “白人至上主义者和右翼 民兵。” 骄傲的男孩们,退后一步,待在一边。 但是

我会告诉你什么,我会告诉你什么。 有人 必须对反法和左派做点什么,

因为这不是右翼问题,这 是左翼——”“他自己的 F.B.I. 主任

说威胁是——”你在质疑 ——” “不,我认为口罩是可以的。

你必须明白,如果你看的话,我的意思是, 我这里有一个面具。

你知道,当我认为我需要它的时候,我会戴上口罩。 以今晚 为例,每个人都进行了测试,并且您已经进行了社交疏离以及您必须做的

所有事情 ——但我在需要时戴上了口罩。

需要的时候,我会戴口罩。” “好吧,让我问一下——” “我不像他那样戴口罩——每次你

看到他,他都有口罩。 他可能在 200 英尺外说话——他带着我见过的最大的面具

出现。” “口罩有很大的不同。 他自己的疾控中心负责人。 说如果我们从现在开始戴

口罩——如果 从现在到 1 月之间每个人都在社交距离内戴口罩,

我们可能会挽救多达 100,000 条生命。 这很 重要。” “而且他们也说过相反的话。

他们还说——”“没有一个严肃的人会说 相反的话。” “事实是,

由于新冠疫情,将有数百万人 通过邮寄选票进行投票,就像他

顺便做的那样。 这一切都是为了劝阻 人们不要投票,因为他试图吓唬

人们,让他们认为这是不 合法的。” “就选票而言,

这是一场灾难。 征集选票,好吗? 请求 是可以的。 你在索取,你在询问。 他们把

它寄回去。 你寄回去。 我这样做了。 这将是您从未见过的欺诈行为。

另一件事:很好,在 11 月 3 日,你正在 观看,你会看到谁赢得了选举。

而且我认为我们会做得很好,因为人们 对我们所做的工作感到非常满意。 但你

知道吗? 我们不会知道,我们可能 几个月都不会知道——因为这些选票将

全部结束。” “现在数以百万计的邮寄选票 已经发出,你打算怎么办?

你是否指望最高法院, 包括巴雷特大法官,来解决任何

争议?” “是的,我想我肯定会指望他们 看选票。 我不认为

我们会——我希望我们在选举本身方面不需要它们 ,但对于选票,我想是的。

我敦促我的支持者参加民意调查并 非常仔细地观察,因为这是必须

发生的事情。 我敦促他们这样做。 我正在敦促我的 人民——我希望这将是一场公平的选举。

如果这是一场公平的选举——” “你在敦促他们 什么?” “——我是 100% 的。 但如果我看到

数以万计的选票被操纵,我 就无法接受。” “事情是这样的:他们

清点选票。 正如您所指出的, 在某些州,其中一些选票甚至要

到选举日才能开始。 如果有数千 张选票,这将需要时间。

根本没有人确定 邮寄选票存在欺诈,不知何故这是一个欺诈

过程。” “已经成立了。” “他 不知道自己在说什么。 这是交易。

事实是,我会接受,他也会。 你知道为什么? 因为一旦宣布获胜者,

在所有选票都计票之后,所有 选票都计票,这就是它的结束。”

“如果

我们只戴上这些口罩,总统 自己的顾问告诉他,我们可以挽救

100,000 条生命。 到目前为止,我们的总统仍然

没有计划,也没有全面的计划。” “你 还说疫苗将在几周内问世。”

“是的。” “这是保证吗? 是——” “不,这不是 保证,但会在年底之前。

但我认为它有一个很好的机会——有两家 公司——我认为在几周内。

它将很快分发。” “这 就是上次告诉你这将在

复活节前结束的那个人。 就是这个 人告诉你的,别担心,我们将

在夏天结束这一切。 我们即将进入一个黑暗的 冬天,一个黑暗的冬天。 而且他没有明确的计划,

也没有希望在明年年中 之前为大多数美国人提供疫苗

。” “特朗普总统,你的反应。 他说

你没有计划。” “我认为我们根本不会 有一个黑暗的冬天。 我们正在开放我们的

国家。 我们已经学习、研究并了解 了这种疾病。” “他说我们,你知道,我们正在

学习与之共存。 人们正在学习 与它一起死去。 你们

今天早上在厨房的桌子上有一把空椅子。 那个男人 或妻子今晚上床睡觉并伸手

试图触摸他们的——出于习惯,他们的 妻子或丈夫所在的地方——已经不见了。 学会

忍受它? 来吧。 我们快要死了。” “我承担 全部责任。 它来到这里不是我的错

。 这是中国的错。 你知道吗? 它来到这里也不是乔的错。

这是中国的错。 首先,我已经 做了一件没人认为是可能的事情:

通过立法机关,我终止了 个人授权。 这是奥巴马医改最糟糕的部分

。 他正在谈论社会化的 医学,以及何时——以及医疗保健。 当他

谈到公共选择时,他是在谈论 摧毁你的医疗保险——” “错了。” “完全

摧毁。 并破坏你的社会保障。 这整个国家都会倒下。 你知道,

伯尼桑德斯在他的州尝试过。 他 在他的州尝试过。 他的州长是一位

非常自由的州长。 他们想让 它发挥作用——”“好吧,让我们听听,让

拜登副总统回应——”“这是不可能的 ——它不起作用。” “他是一个非常困惑的

人。 他认为他在与 其他人竞争。 他正在与乔·拜登竞争。 我击败了所有

其他人,因为我不同意他们。 他的对手是乔·拜登。” “先生。 总统,

您的政府在边境将孩子与 父母分开,至少有 4,000 名孩子。

从那以后,你改变了你的零容忍 政策,但美国无法找到

500 多名儿童的父母。 那么这些家庭将如何团聚呢?”

“孩子是被土狼和 许多坏人、卡特尔带到这里的。 他们被带到这里

,他们过去常常用它们进入我们的国家。 我们现在拥有前所未有的强大边界。

我们有超过 400 英里的全新墙。 你看数字。 我们让人们进来,

但他们必须合法地进来。” “这 500 多名孩子是和

父母一起来的。 他们在边境将它们分开 ,以抑制开始。

大,真的很难——我们真的很强大。 你猜怎么着? 他们不能——不是的,

土狼没有把他们带过来。 他们的父母 和他们在一起。 他们和父母分开了。

它使我们成为笑柄,违反 了我们作为一个国家的每一个概念。 一个黑人父母,

无论他们多么富有或多么贫穷,都 必须教他们的孩子,

当你走在街上时,过马路时不要穿连帽衫 。 事实上,如果你被拉过来,请确保你

把手 放在方向盘上。 因为事实上

,你是受害者,无论你是一个人, 一个年收入 30 万美元的人的孩子,还是领取

食品券的人。” “我完成了刑事司法改革 以及监狱改革和机会区。 我

负责黑人学院和大学。 我不知道该说些什么。 他们可以说任何话。 我的意思是,

他们可以说任何话。 这是一个非常 - 这 让我很难过,因为我是,我是最不

种族主义的人。 我什至看不到观众, 因为太黑了,但我不在乎

观众中有谁:我是这个房间里种族歧视最少的人 。” “他为每一场种族主义之火倾注了燃料,

每一场。 他从自动扶梯开始他的竞选活动 ,说他

要摆脱那些墨西哥“强奸犯”。他 禁止穆斯林,因为他们是穆斯林。 他

四处走动,让一切都变得 更糟。” “我还有最后一个问题——” “他会

关闭石油行业吗? 你会 关闭石油行业吗?” “顺便说一句,我会

从石油行业转型,是的。” “哦,这是一个很大的 声明!” “我会过渡——这是一个重要的

声明。” “这是一个很大的声明!” “因为我 会停下来——” “你为什么要那样做?” “

因为石油工业污染严重。” “原来如此!” “这是交易。” “这是一个很大的

声明。” “但你不能那样做——好吧,如果你 让我完成声明的话——因为

随着时间的推移,随着时间的推移,它必须被可再生能源取代 。 我会停止给石油行业,

我会停止给他们联邦补贴。” “哦!” “对不起,他不会为天然气

、太阳能和风能提供联邦补贴。” “是的。” “我们为什么要把它交给石油工业?” “想象一下,

这是你的就职日。 在你对美国、对没有投票给你的美国人的演讲中,你会说些什么

?” “我们必须让我们的 国家完全成功,就像

瘟疫从中国传入之前一样。 成功 将使我们走到一起。 我们正在通往成功的道路上。

但我正在减税,他想提高 每个人的税收。 他想对每件事都制定新的

规定。” “这里的选票上写的 是这个国家的性格。

体面、荣誉、尊重、有 尊严地待人,确保每个人都有平等的

机会。 我会确保你明白这一点。 在过去的四年里,你没有得到它。”
