"It's a very scary disease—kills people in a horrible way—and had there been an epidemic here, it would've been a terrible thing. But, only two people caught Ebola here in America; neither died. Even in West Africa, where there was an epidemic, more people were killed by other diseases like the flu. When the scare was at its peak, I tried to provoke the women on the Fox show Outnumbered by saying this: "This is an overhyped risk being pumped by news media like us." … Again, without putting up walls, no American caught Ebola here and died from it. By contrast, a hundred Americans were killed by deer this year."
