Donald Trump during a debate with Joe Biden
The American leader insists on a personal meeting with an electoral competitor, despite the fact that it can infect him. Biden suggests canceling the debate entirely if Trump is still sick.
US President Donald Trump, who was diagnosed with the coronavirus a few days ago, wants a direct debate with his election rival Joe Biden, not online. This was announced by the director of communications for the Trump campaign, Tim Murto, to The Hill.
According to him, Trump intends to personally participate in the debate.
At the same time, Biden said the day before that he was ready to continue the debate only if experts confirm that it is safe. Since Donald Trump is sick with coronavirus.
The second stage is scheduled for October 15. And if Trump is still ill at the time, then the debate, according to Biden, should be canceled entirely. Such a statement by Biden was quoted by Reuters on Tuesday.
“If you still have COVID-19, we shouldn’t be debating,” Biden said.
Last Sunday, Democratic campaign spokeswoman Kate Bedingfield told ABC that the former vice president would be willing to postpone the debate if Trump’s health required it.
Let us remember that on the eve of Trump, when he arrived at the White House from a military hospital where he was being treated for coronavirus, he first removed his mask and recorded a video message to Americans, in which he urged them not to have fear of the coronavirus, which angered and shocked doctors.
