Washington Post: Memorial Day offers contrasts as Biden and Trump salute war dead with and without masks

The disparate approaches played out as the country's reported death toll from the coronavirus edged closer to 100,000.
Trump took part in a wreath-laying ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery and later gave remarks at Fort McHenry in Baltimore to honor those who have given their lives in wars past and those fighting today on the front lines of the pandemic.

WNU Editor: Former Vice President Biden did not look good yesterday. Near the end his walk was uncertain and rigid, and his mask was not properly covering his nose. He reminds me of my 94 year old mother who has memory problems early signs of dementia. She has the same troubles in keeping her mask covering her nose, and after being active her walk is the same as Biden's was at the end. As for President Trump .... Trump is Trump.
