      This terrible moderation is a disservice to the seriousness of the moment. Ask some real questions! Moderate!

      You could hit someone on the head, wake them up and make them watch the debate and they’d have no idea which one it is—same old questions, same stale answers. There is a pandemic at the door—even the stock market is responding to it. Ask something else! Move the conversation!

          The only mystery is the clearly targeted heckling! Did Bloomberg cash help this along??? That’s the only thing interesting thing so far in this debate.

          Finally! Bloomberg brings up COVID-19. (And moderators change the topic! Aaargh!)

          These moderators even made the coronavirus question dumb one. Well, I guess, at least it’s being talked about. 🤷‍♀️

          The first debate question on coronavirus addressed containment, not mitigation. Containment was yesterday, mitigation is where we're headed.

          Responses to threat of pandemic could've said much. Marketisation being what it is, some States will behave more like corporations - seek to exploit exigency to gain advantage over "enemies". Some nations will try to socialise responses, by sharing both costs & benefits.
