Beto O'Rourke Talks Texas Pandemic and Politics

President Trump today retweeted an assertion that doctors, the CDC, the media and the Democrats are lying about COVID-19. This doesn’t seem to be helping his polling, where he is flagging in key states that he won in 2016. Some polls show the race tightening in Texas, which last turned blue in 1976. Former presidential contender Beto O’Rourke joins the show to talk about the pandemic and politics.
