The majority of President Donald Trump’s family sat in the audience at the first presidential debate without masks despite rules requiring that attendees wear them as a precaution against the new coronavirus. Moderator Chris Wallace of Fox News announced at the debate’s outset that doctors from the nearby Cleveland Clinic had formulated guidance to protect those present, namely requiring masks and forbidding cheering. Despite the guidelines, Eric, Tiffany, Ivanka, and Donald Trump, Jr. sat front row without the face coverings. Melania Trump did wear a mask. By contrast, those in the front row of the Democratic side appeared to have donned masks.

I always thought Tiffany had more brains.
Melania knows Trump is most likely going down and is protecting herself--and Barron IMHO.

1. I think they had masks on when they walked in and took it off when they get seated.

You know, you can't have a mask on when the camera is on you. /s /smh

[no_hypocrisy]

2. I'm guessing that Big Daddy Trump *ordered* them not to wear masks -- or else.

Melania has an independent rebellious streak -- or she just doesn't have two f**ks left to give.

[jayschool2013]

8. I disagree

Melania has at least two fucks left ... for the right price.

[SergeStorms]

16. Malaria....

didn't want anyone to know who she was. She's as embarrassed by the Orange Baby as anyone, and is only biding her time until she can finally file divorce papers January 21, 2021.

[Tanuki]

23. She is very close to her elderly parents and probably doesn't want to kill them.

I'll give her that much.

[no_hypocrisy]

24. Good point

[beachbumbob]

3. once seated the masks could be removed, I don;t like misinformation

[George II]

4. Yes. I don't like any of them but they did wear them until they were seated. Even they knew that....

....if they didn't have them on they wouldn't be permitted inside.

[Yeehah]

25. Then stop spreading it

There was no such guidance that you could remove your mask once seated.

5. About Melania.

If you were sitting with that crowd, wouldn't you wear a mask? It's been theorized that the Herod, the king of Judea, had incredibly terrible breath as well, due to a stomach condition.

9. I do loathe her but she does, at least superficially, appear to have some empathy.

Unlike the rest of the tRump cabal.

[llmart]

11. She has no empathy. Period.

I don't give her any kudos for anything after wearing that jacket to prisoned little children's cages. Add to that her birtherism crapola and she's no different than he is.

[cyndensco]

14. "I don't care, do you?"

Naw, I see no empathy.

[pfitz59]

27. Did you hear her on the recently released tapes?

Zero empathy, and a potty mouth

[FailureToCommunicate]

6. I'm just glad that the stage people kept the lights off, so we didn't have to look at Trump's

family's smirking faces.

Loathsome losers the lot of them.

[IronLionZion]

7. Looking at Trump was nauseating enough

I can't wait for him to be gone from public life forever.

[FailureToCommunicate]

13. Agreed. But I won't mind checking in on the live "Trump Cam" every once in a while...

just to make sure he and his family are safe...ly ensconced in a gray bar hotel:

[SergeStorms]

17. Pay-Per-View.

Subscription or pay-per-view, we could raise billions for COVID-19 survivors and the family's of those who lost loved ones. What a fitting end, and them not getting one red cent from their public display and humiliation.

Great idea, FailureToCommunicate!

[yaesu]

10. and here is always the problem, they keep breaking rules and no one enforces the rules, we

have the same type of trash here and no one is enforcing.

[mnhtnbb]

12. They should have been removed from the auditorium if they refused to wear masks.

[SunSeeker]

20. Exactly. Why did the Commission on Presidential Debates allow the rules to be broken? nt

[NotASurfer]

15. Is it wrong of me to cheer on a virus in this case?

Rhetorical question. In this specific instance...Come on coronavirus, you can DO it!

[SergeStorms]

18. If it's wrong, I don't want to be right.

You have millions of other people wishing the exact same thing, NotASurfer! Donny Jr.'s girlfriend, Guilfoyle, came down with the virus. I never heard if she recovered or not. Who cares? Anyone who would lock lips with a Trump is mentally unstable to begin with.

[SunSeeker]

21. Kimberly Guilfoyle already has tested positive. She's a superspreader.

What pisses me off is that they endanger the Biden family by not wearing masks.

There is a reason for the phrase, "My mask protects you, your mask protects me."

The Bidens' masks protected the Trumps, but the Trumps wouldn't protect the Bidens.

[SunSeeker]

19. Melania made sure she was the last one to arrive, for her big, maskless entrance.

They are all such pieces of shit.

[geretogo]

22. This is how outlaws act . I hope they go to prison with their father .

[tclambert]

26. I hope they all get sick, but don't die.

I hope they all just have to live the rest of their lives with multiple organ damage, lung, kidney, heart, liver. Not brain, no one could tell.
