... 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.

Well, that's a relief. When I thought it was about Big Brother, I was worried! [eyeroll]
Where’s Joe McCarthy when you need him.
The left (that is, the statists) are always the oppressors. Even Hitler led a Socialist party. His big problem with the left was that his plans for world domination conflicted with those of Stalin, so the famous Hitler-Stalin pact fell apart. They had wanted to dominate the world together in their Socialist paradise.
Sacrifice for the collective.
At least they are making their intentions clear. They plan to rule over the masses like dictators.
And BTW, why do we even need a mask mandate? This virus scheme is over with. Masks don't so shit against the virus except to subjugate the citizens.
More dangerous/deadly things that the D’rats had better ban ASAP, for the collective good:
Ban all alcoholic beverages.
Ban all tobacco and vapes.
Ban all illicit drugs.
Ban all high-fat, high-carb, high-sodium, low-nutrient foods.
Fine the obese semi-annually.
Ban cars of over 150 hp and 100 mph.
Ban helmet-less motorcycle riding.
Ban bathtubs.
Ban ride-on ATVs.
Ban chain-saws.
Ban high- impact and flying fireworks.
Ban guns.
......”We each have to sacrifice for the sake of the .....collective.”....
Communist!!!!
When we have a proven, FDA approved, safe and effective vaccine, everyone should take it! (Take the flu vaccine NOW, too! I did it on August 31.) Then ditch the masks, no more social distancing, and phooey to all the communistic ideas of the “new normal”!!!!
I’d like to see her face-to-face with Richard Grenell.
“Comrad, why do I have to get on this train to Siberia? I don’t understand this ‘greater good’ “
“There was living space for 13 families in this one house.”
“Yes, yes, this is a better arrangement, Comrades. More just.”
Big brother and the collective are one in the same and therefore inseparable.
FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument
Don't tell us patriots to "sacrifice for the collective" Ms Harris. Tell that to the rioters that you helped to bail out of jail. (AOC comes to mind.)
CDC: There Is No Pandemic (9-4-20)
And regarding masks, the CDC indicates that the Chinese-made masks that we've been making the Chinese richer with are minimally effective. They give people a false sense of security imo.
To the CDC Masks Don't Matter (7-31-2020)
Send "Orange Man Bad" federal and state government desperate Democrats home in November!
Supporting PDJT with a new patriot Congress and state government leaders that will promise to fully support his already excellent work for MAGA and stopping SARS-CoV-2 will effectively give fast-working Trump a "third term" in office imo.
I don’t see any problem with voting Republican ticket for 2020 elections.
Insights welcome.
Kamala blows for better clothes.
“The collective” is a communist, not an American, ideological concept. We do believe in Church, country and community - three other “c” words. Suggest pelousy flip the page in her dictionary

In other words...if you're sick...stay home.
Little by little, they changed the criteria. NOW, it's assumed that everyone in the entire country has it....so wear the damn UNNECESSARY mask.
