(11,996 posts)"This is a pandemic. I felt it was a pandemic long before it was called a pandemic," Trump said at a press conference with his coronavirus task force. "All you had to do was look at other countries."
The president's comments were in response to being asked if he agreed that his rhetoric surrounding the coronavirus become more reserved on Monday.. Trump disagreed, saying that he always knew the outbreak was "serious."

Right......I put on my mask as I'm walking outside to get to my car to go get groceries. Naturally, the FIRST thing I say to myself is: "I'm puttin' on my mask because I DETEST that low-life in D.C"......right......

(9,128 posts)Im over 60 years old, I have an A blood-type, and Id like to avoid contracting a COVID 19. Those are better reasons for wearing a mask than disapproval (And if it was mere disapproval, Id go for a Guy Fawkes mask instead), but Im willing to add disapproval of the incumbent to my reasons for wearing a mask.
