    Virtual Debate

    From the WSJ:

    Trump Says He Won’t Participate in Virtual Debate
    The Commission for Presidential Debates said the second meeting between President Trump and Joe Biden on Oct. 15 would be held virtually. However, Mr. Trump, who tested positive for Covid-19, said he wouldn’t participate.
    After his poor performance on the last one this might be the smartest move he could make.

    Maybe not debating is a wise move.. (just verbalized in an un professional manner).. maybe he is listening to his advisors..

    I have three close associates who have caught the virus but not needed hospitalization.. all three have suffered from difficulties problem solving or making sound decisions afterwards for a few weeks..

    One associate, a cousin was “pulled aside” and counciled by a trusted friend who she began discussing business decisions with for a short period..

    The other two are husband and wife and they are still “in a fog” .. and won’t accept help from anyone.. they are upset with everything and everyone.. phone company, grocery store, gas station.. and all of the issues are WCSW (who cares, so what) also have lost the ability to plan ahead.. example: go to Walmart for tooth paste because they are out, none in house.. next day back to Walmart for mouthwash because they are out, none in house..

    These issues are things that happen to 70 somethings who catch the virus.. not a fault..
