... Kamala Harris strongly rebuked President Donald Trump for politicizing the issue of wearing a pandemic mask during an interview Sunday with CNN's Dana Bash.
Harris, minutes earlier in the same interview, said she would be skeptical of a coronavirus vaccine distributed by the Trump administration but said a big part of the problem with pandemic response " is that we have a president of the United States who made this a partisan issue and made it a political issue."
BASH: Would a Biden/Harris administration support a federal mask mandate?HARRIS: So it's about a national standard. Everyone should wear a mask. And here's the thing about this, none of us likes wearing a mask. Nobody likes to wear a mask.
BASH: Right, but there's a difference between a standard --
HARRIS: But it's about sacrifice.
BASH: Right, there's a difference between a standard and a mandate. Would it be a federal mandate under the Biden/Harris administration?
HARRIS: It would be a standard. No -- listen, this is not about -- in terms of the priorities of Joe Biden and myself, this is not about punishment. It's not about big brother. It is simply about saying -- what a leader says in times of crisis... Where leaders said, "We each have to sacrifice for the sake of the nation and the collective."
BASH: But how do you enforce a standard, especially, when, as you know, there are governors who are in -- you know, who just don't agree with that and they're not mandating it on the more local level? How do you enforce that?
HARRIS: But I think that part of the issue here is that we have a president of the United States who made this a partisan issue and made it a political issue.

who knew “The Lone Tanger” would be so prescient decades ago? Watching a re-run just now I learned that “A man who wears a mask is a man of evil.”
The greater good and the COLLECTIVE???
Wow, she really said that. Some of us are old enough to hear that and get a chill.
When people hear or read words such as “the collective” the hair on the back of their necks should stand up on end.
Memo to Biden/Harris - I WILL NOT buckle for the “collective”. I was born free, and I intend to remain free.
What hypocrisy.
We are Borg. Resistance is futile. — Kamala Harris
The starts of a second civil war.
she really said ‘for the collective’??? ROFL
buh bye Felecia
It’s ‘the collective’ that we object to, Kamala.
It is mentioned by David Kupelan that by creating a society of fear, one can brainwash people with stupid ideas much more easily.
A quick takeaway.
Kammy the Hoor can shut her Williebrownhole any old time.
And you thought Biden was the stupid one.
Kamala Harris: Mask Mandate Not About “Big Brother,” ...
******************
Proving, once and for all, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that the masks are 100% about Big Brother.
The so-called "collective" is nothing but a pure abstraction in the minds of atheistic, anarchic minds that have been brainwashed by that lunatic, Karl Marx.
In reality, in human nature, there is no such thing as a "collective." There are only individuals, who may or may not congregate with other individuals, as a matter of conscientious free act. Our would-be political masters have no power or authority to commandeer "sacrifice" from free individuals. That would be tantamount to slavery.
A "nation" is not the same thing as a "collective." A "collective" has no soul; but a nation does.
Kamala's screed is all communist crap, designed to manipulate the ill-informed and/or weak-minded. She is a total disgrace....
I’ve noticed it is the worker joes, alpha males, and brothers who are most likely to go about their business with a mask on—below their nose.
Just a quiet rebellion and literal breath of fresh air.
