NBC announced that they will stage a town hall with Trump in Miami at exactly the same time as Joe Biden’s ABC town hall in Philadelphia.
Remember, the second debate was canceled after a contagious Trump refused to participate virtually (no doubt because the moderator could cut his mic.)
“The event is set to take place outdoors and in accordance with the guidelines set forth by health officials, also consistent with all government regulations,” Hoda Kotb said on NBC’s “Today” show Wednesday.
But what about the virus? The network says that it had been given ‘independent assurances that the president was no longer contagious’ – including the findings of Dr. Fauci who was given a copy of the President’s latest test.
Savannah Guthrie, who will moderate the event, and Trump will be at least 12 feet apart from one another and the audience will be socially distanced and required to wear face masks.
Every NBC News staffer will be tested for COVID on-site on the ground in Miami.
