He doesn't need a mask. A paper bag will do.

Here's a prototype for a Congress Mask.

I still fully expect to hear one day that the government has mandated that 100% of the population be vaccinated against this (or another bug of some sort).

Some will not like me saying this, but I pray that every single one of those jerks get the flu..... I wish a pox on each of them.
