Trump's appalling attack on doctors came on a day when the US marked a new daily record for coronavirus cases and 17 states were seeing record hospitalizations. Instead of addressing those challenges, the President tried to explain the mounting US case count by making the false claim in Michigan that US doctors are inflating coronavirus case numbers because they \"get more money if someone dies from Covid.\"
\"Our doctors are very smart people. So what they do is they say, 'I'm sorry but everybody dies of Covid,' \" Trump said at a rally in Waterford Township, Michigan, on Friday. Unearthing conspiracy theories from the bowels of the Internet, the President claimed with no evidence that doctors from other countries list underlying diseases as the cause of death, while US doctors choose coronavirus.
\"With us, when in doubt -- choose Covid,\" Trump said. \"Now they'll say 'Oh that's terrible what he said,' but that's true. It's like $2,000 more, so you get more money.\"
Trump's falsehood about doctors on the front lines of the pandemic angered Biden, who criticized the President for attacking first-responders at his subsequent rallies in Falcon Heights, Minnesota, and in Milwaukee.
\"The President of the United States is accusing the medical profession of making up Covid deaths so they make more money. Doctors and nurses go to work every day to save lives. They do their jobs. Donald Trump should stop attacking them and do his job,\" Biden said in Minnesota.

The clashing messages of the two candidates stood in stark contrast as they both campaigned in Wisconsin and Minnesota on Friday, with each man attempting to broaden his potential path to 270 electoral votes. Trump won Wisconsin by less than a percentage point in 2016 but narrowly lost Minnesota, and he and Biden are now vying for those pivotal blue-collar voters who abandoned Democrats four years ago to choose Trump's outsider message.
Though some of those voters have drifted away from the President because they disapprove of his handling of the virus, he has continued to insist on holding huge rallies — he has more than a dozen planned in seven states before Election Day, including four in Pennsylvania on Saturday alone — which only draws attention to the fact that he is dangerously flouting the safety guidelines of his own experts at the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, daring Americans to hold him accountable for it on Election Day.
Biden delivered a closing argument grounded in his desire to unify the country and be a president for all people, pledging to work \"as hard for those who don't support me as those who do.\"
The former vice president told Minnesota voters that Trump has \"simply given up\" and questioned how many lives could have been saved if Trump had been candid with the American people about the risks the virus posed early this year. The former vice president also pleaded with voters not to give up their sense of optimism, while acknowledging that was a difficult request at a time when nearly 230

The Associated Press undefined WASHINGTON (AP) — WHAT ARE THE RULES AROUND POLL WATCHING ON ELECTION DAY IN THE UNITED STATES? President Donald Trump has been urging his supporters to go the polls and 'watch very carefully,' raising concerns about possible voter intimidation. Monitoring the votes at polling places is allowed in most states, but rules vary and it's not a free-for-all. States have established rules, in part, to avoid any hint that observers will harass or intimidate voters. There is a long history of whites intimidating and preventing Blacks from voting in the South. And the Republican Party had […]

\"A national mandate probably would not work,\" he said on Sept 15 during a news conference with Vermont Gov. Phil Scott.
Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, has been urging Americans to use masks for months. \"I have trust in the American people that if we put a strong emphasis on the importance of wearing masks, that we will come around and do that and get that percentage up above the relatively low percentage of people that are using masks,\" Fauci said on July 21 on NPR's Morning Edition.
But he has said before that he doesn't think a federal law would be the way to go.
\"I don't like to be authoritarian from the federal government, but at the local level, if governors and others essentially mandate the use of masks when you have an outbreak, I think that would be very important,\" Fauci told Alabama Sen. Doug Jones during a Facebook live event in July.
Until now.
\"Well, if people are not wearing masks, then maybe we should be mandating it,\" the leading infectious disease expert told CNN's Erin Burnett Friday.
Covid-19 has been worsening across the United States, with cases rising in 32 states Friday and holding steady in 17 more. The University of Washington's Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation said the country was entering a winter surge as new infections passed 75,000 in a single day on Friday and more than 800 deaths were reported.
Mask mandates may be tricky to enforce, but it might be time to call for them, Fauci said.
\"There's going to be a difficulty enforcing it, but if everyone agrees that this is something that's important and they mandate it and everybody pulls together and says, you know, we're going to mandate it but let's just do it, I think that would be a great idea to have everybody do it uniformly,\" he said.
As cooler weather comes, people need to \"double down\" on measures that work, Fauci said. \"Universal mask wearing\" is one, he said, as is keeping a distance from others and frequent hand washing. \"They sound very simple. But we're not uniformly doing that and that's one of the reasons we're seeing these surges,\" Fauci said.
