It's that simple.

As far as covid-19 and all, Biden did what any politician haunting DC for 50 years would do - talked about the problems in a serious voice, offered no solutions whatsoever, and anything he said that remotely got near a solution was something the current President has already done.

At least Bernie stays pretty solidly on track - tax any rich person to death and then give away free stuff and all the problems are solved. That's not an actual solution, but it does sound like he has one.
I heard Biden say that he would have lots of meetings in the “White House Situation Room”, because apparently in the mind of a life-long Senator, meetings with large groups of people are how we get things done.

The president spread lies and misinformation for the first six weeks of this crisis, when we should have been getting our act together and get moving on containment. Only a 4-6 year old would have difficulty understanding how detrimental he has been to this crisis from the start.

I can only imagine the hysteria we would have heard from you if he had declared a crisis on Mar 3rd when there were 106 cases in the US.

Did Bernie compare border control to slavery? I hope the black Democratic base heard that.
Perhaps the illegal immigrants will commit a felony in Biden's or Bernie's back yard.

I would buy the "hindsight is 20/20" argument if Trump wasn't already given a preview of what was coming from China or even if he was taking appropriate countermeasures at this point. Instead he spent 6 weeks downplaying the risk to the detriment of all Americans and his best solution to this point is to try to pump money the stockmarket.

Others, like Mike DeWine and Andrew Cuomo, recognized the severity of the situation months ago. Today, Governor Cuomo announced that the lack of leadership or a coherent plan from the Federal Government has forced him to band together with the Governors of NJ and CN to try to battle this alone while the President continues to dither.
