In a new meeting between the two US presidential candidates, Joe Biden focused on attacking the leader of the White House, Donald Trump, on how to respond to the Covid-19 pandemic.
After Trump obtained Covid-19 and refused to participate in an online debate with his rival Biden, the US Presidential Arbitration Committee decided to cancel its second direct debate between them as originally planned.
Instead, the two candidates will compete in a new format called “town hall,” in which they will exchange and answer questions received from the audience at two separate events run by two different television stations. held but held at the same time on the night of October 15 (US time).

According to Reuters, at an event organized by ABC in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the representative of the Democratic Party tried to point with the ax how Trump responded to the pandemic. Biden accused the current Republican president of deliberately underestimating the danger of the virus, which has killed more than 216,000 people in the United States.
“He (Trump) said he didn’t tell anyone because he was afraid the American people would panic. In fact, the American people did not panic. He was the one who panicked,” Biden emphasized.
The former Democratic vice president also accused Trump of “missing great opportunities (to fight the pandemic) and repeatedly saying things that are not true.”
In contrast, when speaking to voters present at an event held by NBC radio in Miami, Florida, Trump sought to defend the administration’s fight against the pandemic, as well as his own reaction, he said. Even hosting a meeting at the Rose Garden, the White House, in which few attendees wore masks, became socially isolated and many of them were later diagnosed as positive for the virus.
“Hey, I’m the president. I have to meet people. I can’t hide in the basement,” said the White House leader, tacitly criticizing the Democratic candidate for stopping public activities for weeks at the time of the epidemic. abundant.
The White House leader says he “has heard different stories” about the effectiveness of wearing masks. “In terms of masks, you have two stories: You have a story they want, a story they don’t want,” Trump said.
Observers said Trump, who constantly interrupted and robbed his opponent in the first direct debate between them two weeks ago, did not appear to change his mind on the mask, even if his administration’s medical experts say this is a key measure to prevent the spread of the virus.
After he was released from the hospital to the White House to continue his Covid-19 treatment on October 5, Trump has faced much criticism for removing his mask to take pictures while in close proximity to photographers and assistants.
