BREAKING—Now VP Pence’s team is breaking earlier agreement and now *refusing* even a transparent plexiglass divider for the VP debate!

Earlier Monday, Commission on Presidential Debates said dividers had been agreed to as a safety measure for #COVID19. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/vp-debate-coronavirus-safety/2020/10/06/ee44fa00-07e7-11eb-a166-dc429b380d10_story.html">https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/...

Pence, Harris teams at odds over plexiglass at debate

Pence’s team says they have not agreed to barriers at Wednesday’s vice-presidential debate. That means Harris and the moderator could have more protection than Pence.

2) Two words: AIRBORNE TRANSMISSION!

3) Just leaving this here.

4) and this again. Aerosols can linger longer than 20 min too.

5) it’s a weird game Pence is playing. Either he doesn’t wanna debate Harris anymore or he is maybe somehow Covid positive and which case he really doesn’t want to debate. But this is maybe a move to provoke a pull out for some reason.
