Ted Cruz slams fellow senator as a 'complete ass' over wearing mask

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) called a Democratic senator a “complete ass” for asking that fellow lawmakers wear masks while in the chamber.

Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio) had asked Sen. Dan Sullivan (R-Alaska) to wear a mask while presiding over the Senate on Monday.

While Cruz argued that Sullivan was about 50 feet from Brown, and therefore didn’t need to wear a mask, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and other public health authorities recommend that people use face coverings when in public indoor spaces and workspaces regardless of distance.

Good for Ted. Sherrod Brown is a condescending POS.

Brown can wear the mask to protect himself from the odd disease and protect others from his Marxist rhetoric

The holes in any mask are 30 times bigger than any virus.

How does a senator address an assembly with a mask over his mouth? The only sound that comes out from behind a mask is “mumble, mumble, mumble.”

Senator Brown must go down. Maybe Turner challenges him in 2024. He is the only State wide elected Democrat official in Ohio. (Renacci ran against him in 2018. Sorry, he was a weak candidate.)

it’s all part of the bigger plan

some writer called the virus a “rampaging out of control” something or other

It’s to build it up as big and bad as possible so IF biden gets into office, the media can gush how he conquered it in a month when Trump couldn’t

It’s all lies.

But that’s what they do

That ***hole would not take my name of his e-mail list for about eight months, even though I asked his staff several times to take me off the e-mail list. A couple of times his staff told me, “It does not hurt to be informed about the issues. Why not keep it?” Eventually I got through to someone reasonable and they took me off the list.

Yes, he is. I think Trump is rubbing off on him.

I had something similar last week with a guy staring, sneering at me for no mask. So In sneezed at him.

A couple of days ago, I was walking to pick up my grandson after school. The crossing guard hit me with a couple of "where's your mask?", I smiled and said, "we're outside, it's not required", and continued on.

I would've said more, but I don't speak Farsi...lol.

I mean, really? We were the only people within 500 feet of each other. Almost as ridiculous as driving alone while wearing a mask.

I seldom wear a mask anywhere. My default setting is maskless, though I have an old surgical mask with two layers removed, to wear when it’s unavoidable. I’m not trying to provoke anything, I just don’t like masks.

In NW Tucson, I have been to Lowe’s, Walmart, and a number of grocery stores and other establishments without a word being said. Unfortunately, at least 99% of the other shoppers I see are dutifully wearing the face-rag.

Whenever I'm out, I entertain myself by counting all the stupid people driving alone while wearing a mask.

I’m a Christian and all that, but certain people just beg to be given the “one finger salute”...
