Joe Biden appears in public for first time in months at veterans memorial

Former Vice President Joe Biden left home for the first time in months on Monday to lay a wreath at a veterans memorial near his home in Delaware.

The presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, wearing a black mask, and his wife, Jill, laid a wreath of white flowers and bowed their heads in silence at Delaware Memorial Bridge Veteran’s Memorial Park.

Biden has been running his 2020 campaign out of the basement of his home in Wilmington since mid-March when he canceled a March 10 rally in Cleveland because of the coronavirus pandemic.

Since then, he has appeared for interviews on news programs, late-night talk shows and virtual campaign events via a television studio he had installed in his home.

President Trump spent Memorial Day laying a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Arlington National Cemetery with first lady Melania Trump.

Trump is also scheduled to attend a ceremony at Fort McHenry national monument in Baltimore.
