A Cleveland Clinic doctor with masks just walked up to a number of unmasked members of the audience on Trump’s side of the room and asked them to put on masks. She told me they refused to take one and wear them.

An observation from inside the debate hall: Everyone in Biden’s side of the hall is wearing a mask. More than half on Trump’s side, including his four children, are not wearing masks. According to the Cleveland Clinic, it’s a requirement that all guests wear masks.

The Cleveland Clinic's rules are well-known. If guests are not wearing masks they can choose to put one on - or leave.

They should not have been allowed to be there. We need someone to step up to Trump. We need to insist that the president and company follow the rules.
