Joe Biden

Make no mistake, if you are out of work, if your business is closed, if your child's school is shut down, if you're seeing layoffs in your community, Donald Trump decided today that none of that -- none of it matters to him because he…

This pandemic is not a red state or blue state issue. This virus doesn't care whether you live or where you live, what political party you belong to. It infects us all. It will take anyone's life. It's a virus. It's not a political weapon.

Trump is using the virus as a political weapon.

I didn't want to further demean the process of the debate by getting in a shouting match with him, on the one hand. And I tried very hard to get noticed to look in the camera and answer the questions directly.

You are the future. You are the future.

Listen to the scientists. Support masks. Support a mask mandate nationwide.

The only responsible response to that would be to pass legislation, making Roe the law of the land.

Quite frankly, I wasn't surprised. For the last three months I'm on the telephone and on Zoom with some of the leading immunologists in the nation. And they go through everything that's happening. And so, the idea that COVID-19 does not…

Be patriotic for God's sake.

Look, anybody who contracts the virus by essentially saying mask don't matter, social distancing doesn't matter. I think is responsible for what happens to them.

I would hope that the President having gone through what he went through, and I'm glad he seems to be coming along pretty well, would communicate the right lesson the American people, mask matter.

Two hundred and ten thousand Americans dead, and the numbers climbing. Let's end the politics and follow the science. Wearing a mask, wearing a mask is not a political statement. It's a scientific recommendation.

Beau was my soul. I miss him every day.

Music has the power to unite us, move us, and inspire us to be better. Let's invest in our artists and musicians and ensure that everyone has access to the arts.

We need to rebuild our infrastructure, including roads, bridges, and broadband. It's time to invest in America.

We have an opportunity to build back better, to create a more resilient, more sustainable, and more equitable economy that works for all Americans.

We need to address the challenges facing our economy and ensure that all Americans have access to good-paying jobs and economic opportunity, and that means investing in clean energy and creating new industries and technologies.

Former Vice President announced both he and his wife tested negative for the virus and stressed the need for both mask-wearing and social distancing.

Mask-wearing is not about being macho or not macho, this is about following the science.

Look, let's -- I would like to start by acknowledging, which I sure all of you do as well, sending my prayers for the health and safety of the First Lady and President -- the President of the United States after they tested positive for…

We can save 100,000 lives in the next 100 days according to the head of the CDC if everyone wears a mask in public. So be patriotic. It's not about being a tough guy. It's about doing your part. Wearing a mask is not only going to protect…

Look, I'd like to start by acknowledging which I'm sure you do as well, sending my prayers for the health and safety of the first lady and the president of the United States after they tested positive for COVID-19. My wife Jill and I pray…

My wife Jill and I pray that they'll make a quick and full recovery. This is not a matter of politics. It's a bracing reminder to all of us. We have to take this virus seriously.

How do we get to the place where you all don't think we see you anymore or hear them, and, most importantly, respect them? That has to change. I know it can. I come from those neighborhoods. We can get this pandemic under control, so we…

We will continue to pray for the health and safety of the president and his family.
