Biden: I Will Institute Mask Mandate on Federal Land, ‘We Could Have a Fine’ – Can’t Do It Nationally
Breitbart ^ | 09/17/2020 | Ian Hanchett

Posted on 09/18/2020 6:11:23 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

During a town hall on CNN on Thursday, 2020 Democratic presidential nominee former Vice President Joe Biden stated that he would have the authority as president to have a mask mandate on federal property and land and he will institute one, which could come with a fine for noncompliance. Biden also stated that he would prefer to see state governors have mask mandates, and would encourage them to have state mask mandates, but he can’t do one nationally. Biden said, “I cannot mandate people wearing masks. … I would call every governor in the country into the White House, say, you should be putting mandates out. And if they don’t, I’d call the mayors in their towns, in their cities and say, put out mandates.”

He can't mandate people wearing masks but he is going to call ever governor's, mayors, and force them do it? Diaper's Biden needs to go on lock down in a mental ward asap. This ahole has a lot of phone calls to make.

Have a feeling the Ninth and Tenth Amendments would be getting some attention from people if the idiot were to try such an asinine move.

Not to mention the Second Amendment.

Notice how the left is not preparing for “After Covid-19”? They are assuming that it stays with us for a long time, and that is their wish. They don’t want to let go of the control they have over us - they arrest us, they shame us, they fine us, they prevent us from traveling. Once they put the shackles on us, they don’t want to remove them.

The only remotely reasonable person that would cast a vote for him is someone that suffers from severe TDS.

But then, that’s an oxymoron. No reasonable person would vote for Biden. Not one.

The absurdity of all this.

It’s SOOOO important that we’ll make all governing executives get the message within days.

Perhaps we’ll arrest them if they don’t do a mandate.

Meanwhile, executives ignoring clear federal law are free along with their enabled illegal aliens, while officially declaring “sanctuary”.

Absurdistan.

We will always have it and it will always kill, just like all the other stuff floating around out there. That’s life. That’s why it’s important to have a strong immune system.

What’s really bad is all the sheep who are supporting this. It’s looking like a vast majority are scared -*#=-(*#less and are at best baaa-baaaing to their slaughter.

To be fair, there is no "after Covid-19", just as there is no "after pneumonia" or "after malaria". Unless something remarkable happens, that virus strain will be a part of the annual flu season every year, just like the 30 other strains that we always generalize as "the flu". We have never singled one out before, but the Democrat needed a mass panic this year for political gain.

...and as they go to break at this scripted CNN town hall, the masks literally come off.

Great, sounds like a plan Joe. Start with DC. Complete mandate, fines and jailing for all .gov workers and congress/senate.

So backpackers in the national parks and national forests will have to wear masks while hiking on a trail miles from any other human beings? It isn’t even healthy to do so, and how would it be enforced? Station official government snitchers every few hundred yards on the trails?

If Walt Kelly was still around to draw Pogo, he'd probably have the characters wearing masks. Apparently he was a big liberal.

Those pictures capture exactly my take on the whole thing. i.e. it is pure theater.

They are spending all this news cycle time to discuss a problem that doesn’t exist and solutions what have no impact.

The political world of the US right now is a world of raw insanity once one gets out of the area controlled by Trump and his policies. That’s why so many like him. It is a return to sanity.

In trump world, he is charlie brown. And when lucy holds the football, he runs to the ball and, as lucy pulls the ball away, he kicks Lucy in the head, and the world cheers.

Why would you do this, you fraud?

Masks or face coverings have been required in many places for quit some time.

Seems to me they don’t work.

Why not completely shut down the economy, mandate everyone stay at home, not leave their yards and have the military deliver food and toilet paper.

Now, that would rid us of this scourge in what? 6-8 weeks?

Do it!!!

For the children!!!
