Exact same here. I have not put on a symbol of fear since this crap started.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Same here. I go virtually nowhere because my Governor is one of the leading Mask Nazis. It’s been a real revelation to me to learn how many things you can now have delivered to your home.

Trump said they were voluntary. But they are required more and more and more. He needs to start drawing some lines. A timeline with an expiration date should be one of them.

Most Americans don’t read the scientific literature. Masks are nearly useless

Wash your hands

Don’t spit on the sidewalk

[backwoods-engineer]

OK, Karen.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Agreed. If he’s pinning all his hopes on mask and vaccines that’s a losing bet.

This will be lead story on CBSNBCABCMSNBCCNNFOX tonight!

Fine, it's ALL they have been complaining about for 2-3 months, Issue OFF THE TABLE.

[Pilgrim's Progress]

Uh, no. That isn’t what he said at all.

“Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump

We are United in our effort to defeat the Invisible China Virus, and many people say that it is Patriotic to wear a face mask when you can’t socially distance. There is nobody more Patriotic than me, your favorite President!”

When does “many people say” become Trump’s view. He is saying that there is nobody more patriotic than he . . . and he only wore the mask once.

[ResistorSister]

Well, if we all wear them and the numbers continue to rise, we will be able to finally put this -mask thing- to rest and call it what it is...

[ConservativeInPA]

I think Trump chose his words wisely. He’s riding a tightrope between real supporters and suburban Karens.

[Buckeye McFrog]

I posted his exact quote and did not interpret it that way at all.

[Unassuaged]

face diaper? Like surgeons and clean room techs wear? Grow up.

[Bell Bouy II]

I am finding another free country to live in

Good luck with that BS

[JudyinCanada]

Lolo I said awhile ago that if the president wants to do away with this mandatory mask business, all he has to do is endorse wearing a mask. Tying patriotism to mask-wearing will certainly have them in a conundrum lol.

[Nothingburger]

Bravo, fellow patriot!

Tying patriotism to mask-wearing will certainly have them in a conundrum lol.

Agree, they won't know what to be offended by now :)

[ripnbang]

If there are people that will do that over this tweet, they deserve Biden as President...

[lodi90]

POTUS is running out of time before the election. We’re testing 800,000 people a day and its inevitable that the demagogues and Chicom flu hobbyists will have new cases to beat him over the head with. If he wants to give a bit of ground on masks I am sure he has good reasons.

[steve86]

Doesn’t the flip-flopping of everyone involved drive you nuts

[Liberty Valance]

T2020!

Surgeons use sterile, generally disposable masks. The ones being used by the public actually ARE face diapers. Hell, some diapers are probably cleaner. We are going to see a rash of fungal and bacterial infections caused by mask wearing IMHO.
