The Oct. 15 debate will be held virtually to protect people's 'health and safety' after the president tested positive for COVID-19.

The Commission on Presidential Debates announced Thursday that the second debate will be"virtual" amid concerns about the president's recent COVID-19 diagnosis — but Trump immediately said he won't participate.

"That's not what debating is all about you sit behind a computer and do a debate it's ridiculous," Trump said. He also said accused the CPD of"trying to protect Biden." . The candidates would participate from separate remote locations while the moderator will be located at the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts of Miami-Dade County in Miami, Florida.

The Trump campaign said Thursday that instead of doing a virtual debate, the president would"do a rally instead."

Could be the best result possible for the country! Biden should still attend the debate and it could be in person if the spreader-in-chief is not there. Ninety minutes with Joe Biden, uninterrupted would be great for 'we the people' and should be considered.

Good. Now President Biden can talk uninterrupted for 90 minutes. BidenTownHall

Good. Then don’t!

Fine.

The show must go on...do it without him! 😆

He's a failure

The Housewives had Zoom reunions. So can they

He knows he doesn’t actually have anything substantial to say. All he can do is bluster bully n bulldoze his way to cover that up.
