Joe Biden and Donald Trump
Democratic nominee for president, Joe Biden, currently leading in national and battleground polls, waded into a final, high stakes presidential debate in Nashville, Tennessee, slamming US President Donald Trump as a man unfit to remain in the White House, holding him responsible for America's catastrophic coronavirus death toll and warning Americans of a "dark winter" ahead if Trump remains in office. Biden tore into Trump with the country's virus caseload. Coronavirus has killed more than 222,000 Americans and sickened more than 8 million. "Anyone who's responsible for that many deaths should not remain as President of the United States of America. We're in a situation where there are 1000 deaths a day. And there are over 70,000, new cases per day," Biden said.
Biden landed plenty of punches into the first 15 minutes. "It's his ineptitude that cost us lives. He should not have been in his sand trap in the golf course." Trump wants to be done with Covid-19 but Covid-19 isn't done with America. That conversation has never gone well for Trump and that's precisely where the final debate kicked off. Trump, a recovered Covid patient, claimed the world's leaders have been congratulating him for what he's done with the virus response. True to form, Trump offered no specifics. He continued to say that schools must reopen, the economy must reopen and that Biden will simply hole up in his basement.
