Trump wears a mask in public. - GMDino - 07-12-2020

Is the virus no longer a hoax?

Is it no longer going away like a miracle?

Did DJT finally come to understand that wearing a mask can help and he should lead by example?

Is it just a cheap political stunt?

Either way... I'm glad he did it. He looked good in it too. Looked like a man of resolve. Should he have done it sooner? Yes... But credit where credit is due. I'm not sure this means Biden is done, but whatever.

See I have a hard time giving him credit when he does something he should have done.  Had he done this months ago, without the rhetoric he kept throwing out there, maybe.  But now?  Now it is just a political stunt.  If he doesn't see a jump in poll numbers he won't do it again.

I see that too, and I basically agree. We now have a citywide mask mandate that ballooned into a countywide mandate here in Dayton. Compliance is way up from what it was prior, but local law enforcement has gone outta their way to blurt out that they aren't gonna enforce it... (Thanks guys... Reminds me of the consultants in Office Space. "What is it... Ya do here?".) So if this stunt or whatever gets a couple more of the stragglers on board with pitching in, then I'm good.

But yes... This should've happened 3 months ago.

This reminds me of when Paula Deen made all that money off of making ultra-unhealthy food and saying stuff like "Now I'm yer cook, I ain't yer doctor!" and then did a total 180 and started doing the healthy and diabetic-friendly stuff full force. Trump was a badass for not wearing a mask like scaredy cat Biden and now Trump is a badass for wearing a mask like scaredy cat Biden.

Also, a 75 year old dude strutting around in a mask isn't exactly the most badass thing in my mind, but what do I know?

I didn't see those tweets claiming him wearing a mask once was "boss" or the death blow to Biden.

That's really embarrassing for the people who tweeted that.

I don't think those people have any shame. They are incapable of being embarrassed.

Even by Trumpfan standards it's an illogical statement.  Trump is now wearing a mask like cowardly Joe Biden and all those liberal scaredy cats we've been laughing at for months but hey....suddenly this looks TOTALLY BADASS!

Trump doesn't pay his taxes like a genius, dodges the draft like a hero, and wears a mask like a badass.  Hopefully he pees his pants on stage so we can hear people come up with a reason why that's pretty much the greatest thing ever.  Or maybe he and Biden could BOTH do it at a debate and we can hear how Biden pees himself like a confused old grampa and Trump pees himself like Easy Rider meets Charles Bronson in Deathwish Part 17.

It's almost too little too late, but it's still a big deal.

Trump, in an interview with CBS, gave a somewhat endorsement of mask wearing:

During an interview, CBS News' Catherine Herridge asked the president whether there should be a federal mandate on wearing masks or if it should be left to governors to decide. Trump responded that governors go by guidelines set by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and "that's good."


When asked whether he would urge Americans to wear masks, Trump replied: “If it‘s necessary, I would urge them to wear a mask and I would say follow the guidelines.“

Hopefully he keeps moving in the right direction. Tens of thousands of lives are at stake.
