Biden is doing great overall in the town hall [View all]

He is hammering on the need to wear a mask. That's a great point. But I wish he would tie wearing a mask to lowering the infection rate. With a low infection rate, we can reopen things and the economy will gradually come back (including the air traveling industry). The public health aspect is great, but I think he could tie it to economy and hit Trump where it hurts.
