Cleveland Clinic Dr asked Trump's side of room to put on masks (they provided) - They Refused.

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.

and Trump should have had his mic cut off repeatedly until he shut the hell up.

Bullies needed to be treated with the respect they deserve, which is none.

Guests are required to mask up. You have a guest that refuses? They aren't guests anymore. Easy peasy.

were removed from the audience.

Taking the lead from the dumpster campaign, every guest should sign an agreement before being allowed in indicating they accept the rules.

And debate should be halted if masks are removed.
