Bidens Highlight 'Sacrifice' of Staying Home for Thanksgiving While Trump Urges Americans to Gather
President Donald Trump and President-elect Joe Biden offered different messages to Americans this Thanksgiving as coronavirus cases surge across the U.S.
In an op-ed published by CNN on Thursday morning, Biden and his wife, Jill Biden, acknowledged those who are "staying away to protect everyone during this pandemic."
"It is not a small sacrifice," the incoming first couple wrote. "These moments with our loved onestime that's lostcan't be returned. Yet, we know it's the price of protecting each other and one we don't pay alone. Isolated in our own dining rooms and kitchens, scattered from coast to coast, we are healing together."
In a video posted to Twitter on Thursday, Biden called the act of staying home "a gift to our fellow Americans."

Trump's annual Thanksgiving proclamation, on the other hand, called for people to get together and celebrate the holiday.
"I encourage all Americans to gather, in homes and places of worship, to offer a prayer of thanks to God for our many blessings," the president's proclamation read.

It'll be nice to have an adult as president again.

But I struggle for a more correct comparison that does not fling insults.
"Human" would work if it were not for the other animal spp.!
