President Donald Trump has a face covering with the presidential seal on it, but he refused to wear it Thursday on the public part of his tour of a Ford plant in Michigan despite factory policy.
The president was given a mask by Ford. He was photographed wearing a mask at the plant, and a source familiar with the matter confirmed the authenticity of the photo.

“IS THIS STILL FREE REPUBLIC? The one that started in 1996, but really took off in 1998 with the Clinton Lies! Doesn’t seem like the same place with comments and all...or lack of...”
They defend the TSA and mask wearing. Next when they tell us to drink our meals from baby bottles because they are sterile, these types will gladly conform.
Civic-minded people wear masks to protect other people. Do you want rhe country to reopen and remain open? Do you want to avoid unnecessary deaths? Do you want Trump to be reelected? If so, you will wear a mask in crowded spaces. There’s nothing brave about not helping protect others in your community.
If N95 et al were certified for bioaerosols, they would be used in BSL3 laboratories.
They are NOT used in BSL3 laboratories and there IS NO MASK certified for viral bioaerosols, particularly airborne virus.
The “scientific” principle of diffusion asserts protection from small particles, but if that was true then no one - including medical care workers - would get infected while wearing an N95.
There is no evidence to support the notion that N95 masks afford any protection whatsoever to bioaerosols. In fact, all literature states quite the contrary.
This highlights the idiocy of the “cloth facial coverings” BS about which I’ve posted prior.
“Fad” is appropriate, I suppose, but I prefer to label it delusional, an effect of fear & resultant anxiety due to media exposure and acquiescence to FauciBirx BS.
Cool. And I’ll call you a fool right back for calling people fools who say something you don’t agree with or approve of.
One more thing. Others on this thread said much the same as I did, minus the word “cave”. Why did you not castigate them? (crickets)
Before #16, the only other post complaining about Trump was from a guy who said he was “pushed off” by it. I didn’t respond to him because I honestly had no clue what he meant.
This is not about civic-mindedness. This is about control. You won’t figure that out until it’s too late. The rest of us have already figured it out.
Do you always post in haiku?

He was give the Mask and was being gracious. He later removed it.
Reminds me of the Campaign where he went to the Iowa State Fair. Every Politician running for POTUS goes there and they scarf down different Carny Foods so they appear to be one of the Folks.
Trump got one of those Pork Chops on a Stick, took one small Bite and threw it away. He did what he need to do, but he knew it was just part of the stupid show.
A mature, civic-minded person will wear a mask in crowded places to protect other people. If you can’t even bring yourself to do such a simple thing for others, then you can expect others to want to control you. You’ve already seen that happen, and if the infection and death rates spike again, you can expect to see it again. I’m not saying that’s a good thing — I’m saying that’s reality.
There’s also the political reality. If this reopening works, without a spike in deaths; Trump will likely be reelected. If the death rate spikes, because too many people refuse to take the simplest precautions (physical distancing, mask-wearing), then get ready for Biden’s inauguration ceremony.
This thing is out. It’s in the wild... it’s gonna be around for a while. Perhaps a long while. So unless you want to live in a sterile bubble for the rest of your life, you ought to just get on with it: Living and breathing free.
The immune system don’t work if it does know what it’s fighting against.
Now if you have some other underlying systemic issues that make fighting off the flu a problem, then by all means take whatever precautions you feel are necessary.
‘This is about control’.
CONTROL and FEAR...leading the defeat of TRUMP...but mostly to full fledged SOCIALISM! And it is happening quickly from within without even having to fire a shot! One one is willing to take a stand on anything and everyone is AFRAID to speak ‘what is not allowed to be spoken’
The BIO WMD being tested was leaked and it was no accident...They are overwhelmed and had no idea how easy it would be...how much affect the little test run has had! They’re improvising with the help of MSM and all the sheep are falling all over themselves to run and hide over the really really bad flu! It’s more than bad for the targeted - TRUMP’s elderly, but for the FEAR it’s pretty much nonsense the way we have let America and it way of life and it’s economy to be upended this way for the CCP’s test... without more facts from the get go! And now that we do know more more we just sit and still let the country , economy and small businesses die!
TRUMP better find a new campaign manager FAST - his bearded guru may know the digital world but this thing is slipping from him!
You seem to have a compulsion to get “the last word”. It’s an indication that you think you’re always right. You’re not, nor am I. No one is.
I’m done with this silliness, and will not respond to you again, on this or any other thread. Doubtful you’ll be able to keep from typing “just one more response”, even though to do so would be futile because it won’t be read by the person you intended it for.
There’s a lot more to life than posting comments on Internet message boards and engaging in pissing contents thereon. Think about it.
You got it, chief.
