With over 170 thousand Americans dead from the pandemic and millions losing healthcare due to sudden unemployment, virus response is a substantial concern for those planning to cast their votes in November.
Presidential Counsellor Kellyanne Conway stumbled once again in an effort to paint President Donald Trump as the best candidate to guide the nation out of the wreckage inflicted by the pandemic.
In an interview with Sandra Smith of Fox News, Conway insisted that Democratic nominee Joe Biden has no plan to combat the virus that's upended daily life in the United States.
Watch below.
You can see the exasperation on Fox News anchor Sandra Smith's face after she's sat through Kellyanne's lies long enough.
Smith: "He's got a plan. Joe Biden's got a plan."
Kellyanne: "Oh yeah, where is it?"
Smith: "It's on his campaign website."
Kellyanne: "Yeah, sure." pic.twitter.com/9yFnf4TwQG

Smith reminded Conway that Biden does indeed have a plan:
"He's got a plan. Joe Biden's got a plan. It's on his campaign website. You can read through it."
Conway responded:
"Yeah, I read through it. It's not much of a plan."
In reality, virus response has been a pillar of Biden's campaign platform. After announcing his running mate, Senator Kamala Harris (D-CA) last week, the pair said one of their first priorities would be to institute a nationwide mask mandate—a stark contrast to Trump's politicization of mask-wearing.
As Smith said, Biden's healthcare plan is on his website. You can read it here. For his virus response plan, you can click this link.
People were pleased to see the conservative Fox News network pushing back against Conway's false claims.

Fox News's Sandra Smith suffered Kellyanne Conway's foolish lies about Joe Biden's plans long enough - and then fact-checked her in real time. https://t.co/Q0blOBgRSh

People also noticed that Conway said there was no plan, only to admit seconds later that she'd read the plan.
Wait...Kellyanne said sure where is the plan, when told where it was, she said she had read it? She lied while she was lying.

She shifts from “where is it" to “yeah I've read it." Mob, just like her grandad.

She went from he should have a plan to where is the plan to I've read the plan in 5 seconds.
