two strong candidates

when they were talking about c-19, Biden sounds like a socialist.....every cost will be covered, paychecks will be covered

he says it is different now because it is a crisis, I wish he understood for many, everyday is a crisis

I wish Biden would of explained his public option better, what it is going to cost, at what level subsides kick in, that kind of thing

because the aca is not affordable for many of us ,I would like to be sure he understood that and was planning on fixing it

On ss, making the age of retirement later is cutting benefits. I guess it is ok if you work at a desk but for those that do physical labor 65 is rough enough, and it has already been raised to 67. he needs to change his ideas on that!

overall I though both candidates did well and showed either would be soooooooooooooooo much better than what we have

Emergency act everything can now be covered...of course Trump is president...Sanders is too pie in the sky...no immediate useful solutions for me. I think Joe won hands down.
