“...He should have a mask with the POTUS seal ...”

He should have one that says “Hey Joe... Bite Me...”

Screw NPR! Kellyanne Conway sent out an email shortly after Trump’s election asking what federal agencies should be abolished. I replied saying a number, including the Legal Services Corporation, NPR, National Endowment for the Arts,and a host of others. Nothing has happened, leading me to believe nothing will happen. She never replied, instead putting up with that obese retromingent husband of hers and that insolent daughter.
It seems we are doomed, despite the election and hopeful relection of Trump. Kellyanne, where the hell are you and what are you doing?

especially as cases of COVID-19 continue to spike — particularly in Republican-led states

Except that a staggering 42% of all coronavirus deaths are in deep blue states of New York, New Jersey and Massachusetts.
Deep red states like South Dakota have had very very few deaths. Republican states are vastly better off.

after months of refusing to don the medical expert-recommended face coverings meant to help slow the spread of the coronavirus.

Trump already put on a mask at that PPE Ford factory a few months back. Nobody has been against putting on masks in hospitals for surgery or around patients who just got wheeled out of surgery.
However putting on masks while out walking in the streets is stupid. It's gonna reduce your oxygen supply and accumulate bacteria in it.

I like that too... but I think something more like “If THIS has to be ON MY face, then it’s going to be IN YOUR face...” to the demwits...

You know what I mean??? :^)

What about wearing masks in businesses or other indoor spaces, and working hard either to wash them regularly or wear disposable ones one time only?

It's a hospital. And around patients in intensive care. I have no problem with that. Doctors and nurses have been putting on masks for a very long time. Over a century before coronavirus.

It’s encouraging, and a good thing. Should have been doing this since the beginning

It’s extremely unfortunate that masks and the response to covid19 became about politics in the first place. For some reason he took it as if it was a political thing against him so had to pretend it was not really a thing

Just wear a mask or whatever we need to do to get this over with so we can get started again

To be honest with you I don't put on face masks. If I am going into a shop and they tell me masks only, I simply go elsewhere. I don't even have any face masks. Never even bought any.
Despite my age, the last thing I worry about is coronavirus. I have managed to go through this so called “pandemic” in very good health.

I entirely agree with your POV. Masks are not magic bullets, but they help. One could look at the low death rates in Japan, Taiwan and Korea as evidence for this. Democrat leaders have used mask mandates as an excuse for their own incompetence, but despite that they still help, by basic geometry and physics. The point of masks is not to protect you, but to protect others. Not to wear them, absent decisive evidence that they don’t protect others, is reprehensible.

I have had type I diabetes for 40 years, and for that reason am arguably immunocompromised. I don’t insist on crowded bars or restaurants rearranging their business model to accommodate me, but I still need to buy groceries and do other things. This rebellion against masks, despite their apparent success in the Far East, mystifies me. If all you do all day is post on FR, of course you face almost no risk.. But for people like me, who do need to go out and face Covid risk from time to time, the refusal to wear masks because it’s seen as some kind of Deep State conspiracy is genuinely dispririting,

I hope the president’s willingness to wear one when the circumstances call for it will cause some people to reconsider.
