Abbott is in the bullshit Sweden camp of “people will use common sense” and voluntarily wear masks. And look at the infection rates of our southern and western states that are not mandating masks in public.
Cue the poutraged House GOP clueless fucknuts screaming, "An indefensible intrusion on our 1st Amendment rights! Maybe she should change her name to Nancy Pol Pot instead of Nancy Pelosi!!!" in 3…2…1…
The dumbing of America is almost complete. From anti-vaxxers and flat-earthers to anti-maskers and plandemic fans, we have lost ourselves in a sea of stupidity. Once everything is politicized and has a “side”, no further progress to be made. The Republicans have been doing this for years, but Trump has elevated it to moron level.
Used to be that everyone hated the government until they saved you from eating poison hamburgers. Now a significant portion of the country demands the right to eat all of the poison burgers they crave. This is the kind of progress that can kill us.
That would hurt both sides more or less equally. The program the WH is following – although they can’t say it out loud – is to have the virus “wash through” the population as quickly as possible, so the economy can recover by November. Or at least look like it’s headed that way.
For Trump, the state of the economy = his chance of getting reelected, full stop. He doesn’t care how many people die to get there.
In the middle of a deadly pandemic looking out for each other is only being reasonable and safe… no matter what Matt Gaetz might think.
Masks please.
Mrs darr just got done making piles of masks she is sending to our extended family. It’s the right thing to do.
Stay home, stay safe, WASH YOUR HANDS
This ain’t over yet.
