This has to be spoke of.. During the debate, Trump mocks Biden for wearing a mask.

More than 200,000 Americans have died from Covid-19 and US President Trump is still casting doubt about the effectiveness of wearing a mask -- and mocking Democratic nominee Joe Biden for doing so himself.

I don't wear a mask like (Biden), every time you see him, he's got a mask, Trump said. He could be speaking 200 feet away from it, and he shows up with the biggest mask I've seen.

Biden, when asked about the use of masks, again referenced the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention directors beseeching of Americans to put them on and reiterated how many lives could be saved in the coming months if people took his advice.

Trump jumped in to argue to that health officials have said the opposite a false claim that hes repeated when questioned on the matter.

No serious person has said the opposite, Biden shot back.

Trump again interrupted to say that Dr Anthony Fauci had said precisely that, before noting, almost in passing, that Fauci had changed his position from the very early days of the pandemic.
