That’s what happens when you have a “Divider-in-Chief”.He’s politicized wearing masks-it’s not “cool” to wear masks.His cult followers have been convinced the virus is a hoax-BTW if you’re in Tulsa next week, be sure to bring a pen to sign a waiver for a virus that doesn’t exist!

You shouldn’t have to wear them outside I keep my distance I wash my hands just like someone that had got the flu people die every day of the flu and other diseases keep your distance wash your hands forget about the damn mask unless you’re in a crowd

Virus waiting to happen.

The one's that do not wear masks...,get sick..,then they look for someone to blame because ( they ) did'ent follow the instructions of the Health Officials ! Sounds like someone else we know...( Donald Trump?)

Masks outside are ridiculous and pointless!

Not the Republican party I grew up with. Many thousands of Americans will die because of Donald Trump. Trump is an embarrassment. He is a questionable businessman who has no understanding of how to govern. Dump Trump!

What is this?

God, please RAPTURE up these geniuses. - the rest of America trying to survive.
