Donald Trump: I've been right probably more than anybody else

TRUMP: I think we're gonna be very good with the coronavirus. I think that at some point that's going to sort of just disappear. I hope. I'll be right eventually. I will be right eventually. You know I said, "It's going to disappear." I'll say it again.

Q: But does that discredit you?

TRUMP: It's going to disappear and I'll be right. I don't think so.

Q: WALLACE: Right.

TRUMP: I don't think so. I don't think so. You know why? Because I've been right probably more than anybody else.

Donald Trump: My mother was like a saint, my father was most solid person

I have a mother who was like a saint. She was incredible. She was an incredible woman. My father was the most solid person I've ever met. He was a very good person. He was a very, very good person. He was strong but he was good. For [Mary Trump in her book] to say the kind of things, a psychopath, that he was a psychopath, anybody that knew Fred Trump would call him a psychopath? My father was tough on me, he was tough on all of the kids. But tough in a really good sense. That book is a lie.

Donald Trump: FactCheck: "We have the best testing in the world"? Not!

Trump: "Cases are up because we have the best testing in the world and we have the most testing. No country has ever done what we've done in terms of testing. We are the envy of the world. They call and they say the most incredible job anybody's done is our job on testing. You look at other countries; they don't even do tests."

OTI FactCheck: Trump refers to the total number of tests--the US is indeed first. The US is not first in testing per capita. For countries over a million population in early 2021:

Pete Buttigieg: Progressive, but not concerned with labels

I think more and more people just want to know what your ideas are and whether they make any sense. And part of how we were able to succeed in South Bend, governing, I believe in accordance with progressive values, but also earning a lot of support from Republicans and independents wasn't by trying to manage exactly where I was on this kind of left/right spectrum, it was by trying to do the right thing. I view myself as a progressive, but these labels are becoming less and less useful.
