Former Vice President Joe Biden on Thursday called for a nationwide mask mandate to help fight the spread of the coronavirus pandemic.

“Every American should be wearing a mask when they’re outside for the next three months at a minimum,” Biden told reporters in Wilmington, Del.

The presumptive Democratic presidential nominee spoke after sitting down for a briefing on the coronavirus with public health experts. He was joined at the briefing by his newly named running mate, Sen. Kamala Harris of California.

He spoke, er, rambled and slurred words, for like 30 seconds that let Harris repeat what he said several times.

A neck gaiter is way too hot, and restricts air flow too much. I have to go into mask-requiring places sometimes, and I wear masks made from cheesecloth. Plenty of air.

A few days ago, I didn’t have a mask handy, so I took a paper fast-food napkin, unfolded it, and tucked an edge up beneath my sunglasses so that it hung over my nose and mouth. Several people appeared to think that was pretty funny.

“The democrat base has bought the narrative that wearing a mask is more about protecting others than protecting yourself.”

Well since I really don’t give a Rat’s a$$ about other people anyways...(extreme sarc/off)

Today: Put on a mask, it’s the compassionate thing to do to protect the health of others.

Tomorrow: Hand over your guns, it’s the compassionate thing to do to protect the health of others.

I call for a mandate that slow joe and knee pads self-exile after turning in their passports and relinquishing their US citizenship.

So Biden’s first instinct is to issue one-size-fits-all diktats from DC. His basementia is getting out of control.

Saw an article on Drudge that Wisconsin’s mandate is so vague an employer is advising their employees to wear masks on Zoom calls - even if they are at home.

Actually Trump has been schmoozing the Karens and as much as it drives me berzerk it has helped his poll numbers.

The best way to schmooze the Karens is to show footage of Antifa/BLM scum boasting about how their "coming to the suburbs." All Karens are the same as the mayor of Seattle. They are left until the left shows up on their doorstep.

From February:
“Trump’s travel bans have never been rooted in national security — they’re about discriminating against people of color,” Senator Kamala Harris, the former Democratic presidential candidate, declared on Sunday. “They are, without a doubt, rooted in anti-immigrant, white supremacist ideologies."

No, Kamala, that is what leadership looks like. President Trump worked to save the country while you sniped from the back bench.

I can’t wait for more gaffs from creepy Joe. I’ll bet you he gets so confused he’ll actually say something like...”I’ll put you all back in chains...”

Can’t wait to see the corporate media spin a whopper like that...

It’ll be like Bob Ucker drinking from the bottle of JD in Major League!
