Kamala Harris: Mask Mandate Not About "Big Brother," It Is Making A "Sacrifice For The Collective"
RCP video ^ | 9-7-2020 | Tim Hains

Posted on 09/07/2020 9:16:57 AM PDT by Sir Napsalot

... 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.

Title said pretty much everything. The individual sacrifice. The collective. For the Greater Good. I am surprised Kamala Harris didn't break out singing Soviet Union, ChiComm, Cuban, etc. national anthem(s).

And Bash is right to ask "But how do you enforce it?" Because invariably and inevitably Gubmint Jackboots are going to stamp on people's throats. In Leftists' Collective Paradise. Every. FRking. Single. Time.

But I highlighted Kamala Harris' assertion that president Trump made his pandemic response a "political issue".

====> All Democrats care about is power grab. They turn every issue into a political issue and then blame the other party for 'doing it'.

“...for the sake of the nation and the collective.”

Marxists always reveal themselves by their choice of words.

Show me ANY Democrats in power who are following these edicts of no travel, no dining out, no haircuts/styling, must wear a mask 8 hours a day while on the job, etc etc.

Fek ‘em all.

Talk about an unforced error. All she had to do is say it's not a federal issue, not within a President's power. Up to the States. But she went out of her way to announce herself as a statist authoritarian.

Feeds right into how Trump is framing this election.

These three gentlemen would instantly agree. And that should terrify every American.
