Certainly the anti-Trump ads probably have to be lessened or pulled

I have no idea how anyone looks at this as a positive development

Doing otherwise would look incredibly classless. And I think Joe knows, more than anyone else, that life-as-usual stops for a life-threatening disease.

I would think he'd return to the campaign trail once his rival is out of danger.

from totally asymptomatic to dead.
And so Joe is supposed to wait? For what, exactly? Right now we don't even know if Trump is going to get symptoms or if he ever actually going to be fine.

Chump will be on Twitter from dawn to midnight. A little COVID won't stop his venom unless he gets really incapacitated.

Joe can be respectful, but carry on, sticking to policy and ideas.

He modifies his campaign. And we hope to hell that he didn't catch it during the debate.

Not in a mocking way though. But to try to get it through to tRump's followers that this disease does not care who you are or who you're going to vote for. It needs to be taken very seriously by everyone. And for those who only care about the economy, like Joe has already been saying, it can't come back until COVID is under control. At this point in time it is still running rampant.
