President Trump, after months of refusing to wear a coronavirus face mask in public, posted a photo on Twitter Monday of himself wearing a face mask, declaring “There is nobody more Patriotic than me.” “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,” Trump wrote. “There is nobody more Patriotic than me, your favorite President!”

Oops. Left a word out and messed up the punch clause.

Well, I might have had ancestors on both sides doing some scalping, so they’re even.

I’ve noticed a LOT of posts lately that are obvious trolls.

Was going to Drive up window of my bank today and while waiting in line I was looking inside and there was a Hispanic Dude and a Black Dude (landscaper truck outside) with bandana type masks on.

When I got to the window my ‘favorite’ teller came up and I told her how 6 months ago had I seen that sight, I would have immediately called 9/11 then snuck around to the office on the side and see what I could do to ‘help’ if necessary.

Then again, 6 months ago I would have been INSIDE the bank.

Ironically, today a mask on in a bank in normal and had I went into the bank sans mask, possibility looms that someone would have called 911 on ME....

Tempes fugit

Do I get a red MAGA mask with a $20 donation to Trump campaign? It will match my MAGA hat nicely.

Yes, 1600s. Quite a few came over since then, too, though.

I oppose government mandates requiring one to wear a mask, but I don’t “go full William Wallace” when a private business asks me to wear one. I don’t know whose worse, the Karens or the Bravehearts.

That’s incredible.

I could never get the first generation thing right.

It’s either my pop who came from Italy or me.

Either way, I have a grand nephew now so we are working our way into the “here a long time” category :)

Just not compared to your family.

I believe that was extreme sarcasm from the President. He is making fun of the mask mandates.

When you run across a “troll” there are a couple of appropriate responses:

IBTZ (In before the ZOT)

and

“I smell Ozone”

The mods start lighting up their blasters and “poof”

"So now, after months of dismissing masks, we’re supposed to believe he’s a born-again mask wearer? Who came up with this idiotic idea? Jared or Ivanka?"

He didn't say that. ;)

He's been in favor of people wearing masks for some time but has repeatedly refused to issue a federal mask order. He's also trying to be reelected, and I approve of his messages. ;)

Trump says he's 'a believer in masks,' but stops short of national mandate in coronavirus fight
Fox News
By Andrew O'Reilly
July 20, 2020
Speaking during an exclusive interview on 'Fox News Sunday,' the president deferred to state officials on the issue of masks when questioned by moderator Chris Wallace.

'Everybody who is saying don’t wear a mask – all of sudden everybody’s got to wear a mask, and as you know masks cause problems, too,' Trump said. 'With that being said, I’m a believer in masks. I think masks are good.'

>>>the networks will run 24 hours a day with how Trump has finally admitted he was wrong

Actually - Trump has never said people should NOT wear masks. Mike Pence has been the mouth-piece of the administration re: masks and has been very vocal about it.

Kayleigh McEnany said Trump told her "to do whatever your local jurisdiction requests of you. (June 29th - WSJ)” So - Trump has told everyone on this board - if your local authorities or state has told you to wear a mask - then DO IT.

So - Trump has been consistent. It's the people on this board who have been disagreeing with the administration. It's the people on this board who need to ask themselves a question: Is Mike Pence a liar - or a fool? Is he a liar or is he rogue and disagreeing with the president? OR is he just playing politics (which means he is a liar)? Or is he saying these things because Kayleigh McEnany is also telling the truth - because Trump said that if the Governor of Texas tells you to wear a mask - you should do it.

So - these are not Trump's issues - these are your issues. You can either call him out (and Pence) on it - or support him. But you can't have your cake and eat it too.

>>>Trump loves to troll the media.

Trump trolls everyone...not just the media.

“The final key to the way I promote is bravado. I play to people’s fantasies. People may not always think big themselves, but they can still get very excited by those who do. That’s why a little hyperbole never hurts. People want to believe that something is the biggest and the greatest and the most spectacular. I call it truthful hyperbole. It’s an innocent form of exaggeration, and a very effective form of promotion.”

that has nothing to do with the post I sent.

Don’t post rambling nonsense to me ever again.

They are a waste of my time.
