Biden and trump both come out. Biden says “hi folks” and you can hear him like he’s already mic’d up.
Trump walks in and says something and you can’t hear it.
I couldn’t shake how odd it felt to me after hearing the emphasis on the mic’s at the podium having mute buttons. Probably nothing just thought it was interesting
This isn't weird when you consider the fact that Joe Biden had the first question. The mics were supposed to be muted, and CNN didn't bother unmuting Trump's for just a second to greet the audience across America.
