Cruz Swats Away Reporter's Request For Him To Wear A Mask: 'You’re Welcome To Step Away If You’d Like'

Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas., was quick to dismiss a reporter's request that he wear a mask during a Senate presser on Wednesday.

Cruz stepped up to the microphones, but was stopped before he could speak by the unidentified reporter asking, "Would you mind putting on a mask for us?"

"Yeah, when I’m talking to the TV camera, I’m not going to wear a mask," Cruz responded. "All of us have been immunized, so..."

"It’d make us feel better," the reporter is heard replying.

"You’re welcome to step away if you’d like," Cruz said before chuckling. "The whole point of the vaccine -- CDC guidance is what we're following."

Conservatives praised Cruz and mocked the reporter on social media.

"Like a boss," radio host Derek Hunter reacted.

Luckily my favorite bar is a biker hangout. The bikers do not appear to be big on masks.

I can’t stand the sight or sound of people wearing masks.

Hibernation is fun.

Reality check to FEARpers:

COVID-19 is airborne.

That means, “in the air, everywhere”.

It is ENDEMIC.

We will ALL get exposed..over and over.
MANY of us will “test positive”, mostly without symptoms.
SOME of us will be “symptomatic”, and a subset will be really sick.
And (unfortunately) a FEW of us will die.

This is NOT the Bubonic plague.
This is NOT the Spanish Influenza.

Tear off that face diaper.
Breathe deeply. Inhale some COVID.
Build up your immune system.
And LIVE!

I was asked to leave a local brewpub the other evening when I walked in maskless, because I was maskless. As I left, the Karens and Chads at the table I normally sit at ALL lifted their masks to their faces. Every. Single. Person.

They were all in the 20-30 demographic, the least likely to actually be affected.

The propaganda and conditioning have really affected the youth. It’s sad to see.

Fortunately, the bar I frequent has an owner that is completely disgusted by the mask whackiness. Personally, I wish he’d put a sign up saying “if you’re wearing a mask, we’ll assume you are robbing the place and react accordingly.”

Bottom line - it is now a permanent part of the earth's biosphere. There is no avoiding, no getting away from, no "stopping" it. Any nitwit babbling about "stopping" the virus needs to be beaten silly.

Was the name of the ‘reporter’ Karen?
Half the states are not locked down by the democrats and the people are still alive.

In Calif you would think by the leading news story every freaking day that everyone is dropping dead.
