Joe Biden: I Will Force Americans to Wear Masks in Public
Breitbart ^ | June 26, 2020 | JOEL B. POLLAK

Posted on 06/26/2020 6:27:57 AM PDT by maggief

Former Vice President Joe Biden said Thursday that he would compel Americans to wear masks in public if elected president.

In an interview with Pittsburgh CBS affiliate KDKA, Biden said that he would use federal power to “mandate” masks.

Q: I know you have been critical of the president’s handling of the pandemic in the past. But let’s look ahead. If you became president tomorrow, what would you do differently regarding the pandemic and getting these surging cases now under control?

Biden: I would go back to making sure that everybody had masks, that you had PPE [personal protective equipment] lined up, we’d have been making sure we stockpile all the things that we need that we don’t have now. The one thing we do know, these masks make a gigantic difference. I would insist that everybody out in public be wearing that mask. Anyone to reopen — would have to make sure that they walked in their business that had masks.

Q: Couldn’t you use the federal leverage to mandate that, though?

Biden: Yes.

Q: Would you?

Biden: Yes, I would from an executive standpoint, yes, i would.

Q: So you would, in effect, mandate the wearing of masks.

Biden: I would do everything possible to make it required that people had to wear masks in public.

“He can kiss my grits. Hopefully the senior pervert will never be president”


But if he ever is, it won’t be for more than a year or so. Soon after he takes office, “rumors” will start being floated that he’s “not quite all there,” etc. Soon afterwards, look for the cabinet to use the 25th Amendment to get rid of him, and to install the REAL candidate - which is to say, whomever is nominated to be the VP. And you can bet your life that said person will be VERY Leftist, far more than Biden was on his worst days.

This is so obvious and transparent that a blind man could see it.

What do you mean by “Karen vote?” Does Biden think he is now in Myanmar?

“He is positioning for the Karen vote”

Beware! That’s a huge voter block!


In Myanmar it is. Only the Burmese vote is larger. I don’t know about the USA.

Well if this story is close to true then it isn’t going to hurt him: 89% of Americans wear masks in public as the coronavirus pandemic persists: POLL


Wrong. Choosing to wear one is a lot different than forcing one to wear one.

The majority of folks do not like to be forced.

Also, I doubt the poll. I bet it is conducted by the Rats.

"The symbol of submission and obedience to the New Socialist State. Goodbye, America."

I am approaching my breaking point.

COVID is a hoax, a common everyday virus being used as a biological weapon , part of an attack on capitalism and an attept to topple order and establish Socialist Tyrrany by creating disorder and opening a void to fill with socialism.

I prefer to live free or die fighting. I won't be living a mask wearing world of idiot sheep

Wearing masks outside is stupid in instances where substantial social distancing can easily be maintained.

So Joe, who is part of the Deep State and the Swamp, apparently knows that those two groups are going to make SURE that we still have the Chinese Wuhan Bio-weapon COVID-19 active SEVEN MONTHS from now?

Of course, if by some chance that the Bio-weapon from China has slowed down with Biden as president, we will all be miraculously cured!

Just like the virus doesn't affect looters, rioter and protesters, WalMart, all big grocery stores, but does hit barbershops, nail shops, churches, parks for Jewish people, small grocery stores.

Gee, ya think these rules etc are designed to shut down small businesses but not large ones with LOBBYISTS who donate to democrat candidates and the DNC?
