Exactly, and Cooper never challenged Biden’s incorrect responses.

Never seen so many beach balls lobbed at a candidate from 10 feet. There were the show

your compassion

your outrage at President Trump

your care and love [except in his back yard] for immigrants

your oneness with blacks

your toughness on China

your science first decision making

questions.

Biden knocked it out of the park. Trump struck out. Can't wait for the debates.

Biden answered the questions without any issues I could see I actually think the Dementia was an act to get Trump to keep talking about it make him think Biden was easy win.

That is a false and pathetic assessment. Not surprised.

and here's a valid point. If the science experts say "wear a mask", and regulations where any indoor events are require a mask - then make everybody necessary wear a mask.

It is "lead by example" (not him personally, but gatherings) and it is a simple leadership action.

At the same time, you'd have to get a comprehensive (huge sample size) of Trump supporters and ask them:

Do you wear a mask when you can't properly social distance or otherwise follow the rules of your state/city?
If "No", is it because Trump doesn't wear a mask and doesn't require it at an event or two?

This would not stop the virus, but would slow it down and enable the scientists the time to create a safe vaccine. Instead, he has downplayed it, mocked mask wearing, held indoor rallies with no social distancing. Basically the opposite of what should be done.
I stopped here. As part of the drive-in movie town hall that's the subject of the thread - Biden claimed ALL 200K were Trump's fault.

On March 16, "15 days to slow the spread" was released.

When FL and TX were "pushed to reopen" they had minimal # of cases (for population). Today, they are 16th and 18th in deaths/MM. NY at it's peak had 956 deaths/day (7 day avg). Texas - 276. Florida - 184.

That's why I am an independent, I am completely disgusted by both parties.

No, not at all. In fact, NO ONE, Rep or Dem, has ever displayed Trump's level of spewing toxic venom, whipping supporters into a frenzy, and strutting theatrically.

Being an independent is no excuse for not being able to perceive the difference between Trump and all other presidents.
