5. Basically - if Joe knew this pandemic was so bad, why was he still holding rallies in March.

Joe gave a LONG answer, including talking about how he called trump* to give him some input, trump* politely listened and then still did nothing.

I'm not sure when Joe stopped holding rallies but the point is, once we really realized what this virus was capable of doing, and how fast it spread, HE DID.

Genocide--be it by cop or by virus--is still genocide.

14. I doubt race plays any part in this push -- it's all about his re-election and the perception . . .

17. Sanders and Biden Cancel Events as Coronavirus Fears Upend Primary

There was a lot yet to be learned back in March. Once the information came out Joe Biden as well as others acted accordingly and responsibly. tRump still doesn't and it's either a deliberate plan to kill people or tRump is just too effing stupid to get it.

Sanders and Biden Cancel Events as Coronavirus Fears Upend Primary
The presidential race entered extraordinary new ground as the leading Democrats called off primary-night events in Cleveland, and President Trump’s signature rallies also faced an uncertain future.

March 10, 2020

The nation’s presidential race entered an unpredictable new phase on Tuesday after the two leading Democratic candidates canceled big primary-night campaign events because of worries about the coronavirus, and Vice President Mike Pence said that the future of President Trump’s signature rallies would be decided on a “a day-to-day basis.”

The disruption to traditional campaigning was the first powerful sign that the virus is changing American politics, coming at the height of a primary season as Senator Bernie Sanders and former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. battle for the Democratic nomination.

And expanding on the entire situation to include how trump* mis-handled it. That the question came from a 'hostile' reporter made the answer even sweeter.
