At the beginning of the video a journalist is talking about how the children are living the current situation in the United States. Most of them are bored, restless and learning a little bit from distance learning courses. He’s asking the president to say a few words to them. Donald Trump answers by saying first that they are citizens of the greatest country in the world and that they are under attack. Their goal is to win the war and hopefully it won’t take long. He’s saying then that the children have a duty to behave and stay at home with their parents. He advises the children to be very proud of their country because ultimately all the actions taken, are for their sake. He’s expressing how surprising it is to see that children are less affected by the pandemic. He’s saying that the Covid 19 can be called different names : virus, germ, flu… He believes the children are doing very well, and that the younger they are, the better they do. He thinks their immune system is stronger. At the end of his speech he’s mentioning the Spanish flu, H1N1 that were more risky for children. He’s saying that age is a factor.
I don’t agree with everything he says. First of all, I don’t think the United States are the greatest country in the world because they still have many issues. If I had to name one, I will probably say that gun power is a big problem. A lot of children died from mass killing in schools and in public spaces. I do believe that they are taking actions right now to counter attack the virus, but that they should also start working on gun power. Finally, even though a lot of older people died from the virus, young people can still be affected. We see more and more young people dying even without any underlying medical conditions. The only thing I agree with him, is to tell young people to behave at home, help their parents and stay inside.

Pour la deuxième partie ce n’est que mon avis, si vous n’êtes pas d’accord vous pouvez modifier. Selon moi, c’est un peu hypocrite de dire à des enfants d’être fiers de leur pays alors que bien avant la pandémie, il existait des tueries de masse qui tuaient de jeunes enfants et tout ça c’est à cause du port d’armes aux États-Unis et de la non réglementation de la vente d’armes. Après encore une fois ce n’est que mon avis. Vous pouvez critiquer sur d’autres points si vous le souhaitez.
