Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden says he and President Donald Trump “shouldn’t have a debate” as long as the President remains positive for the coronavirus.
Biden said Tuesday that he’s “looking forward to being able to debate him” but said “we’re going to have to follow very strict guidelines.” He says he doesn’t know Trump’s status since the resident returned to the White House after being hospitalized at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for three days after a COVID-19 diagnosis.
Biden told reporters while boarding his plane back to Delaware in Hagerstown, Maryland: “I think if he still has COVID, then we shouldn’t have a debate.”
The next debate is scheduled for Oct. 15, with a third debate slated for Oct. 22.
Biden’s campaign says he tested negative for COVID-19 earlier Tuesday.

Isn’t that a no brainer?

Thank you Biden! No debate if Trump is still testing positive! Obviously trump is not an adult capable of making adult decisions for himself or anyone else in America! Vote Democrat up and down ballot!
