I think the mask/reopening protests are much about white supremacy and white privilege. Minorities are disproportionately affected by the disease, both in health and economics, yet there is no concern over that. The frequent waving of the stars and bars, civil disruptions ignored by the police, and “muh rights” over that of legitimate government smacks of the deep south civil rights protests of the 1960s. It does not help the Racist- in – Chief can’t resist to throw gas on that fire.
A non-vetted internal document from the CDC recently predicted that deaths from the Corona virus may exceed 3000 a day at the end of June. (Non-vetted meaning that the WH didn’t have a chance to suppress it).
Will such a catastrophic scenario make a dent in the psychic the of protestors? Will watching their grandparents die horrible deaths mean anything to them? Will they continual repeat the propaganda from the WH? Will this damn virus keep coming back year after year until we’re all dead because it had such a great head start due to the incredible low mentality of the protestors and the WH?
Actually, the ‘gentleman’ depicted understands all too well, as does what passes for our commander-in-chief that the purpose of a mask is NOT to keep from getting infected, but, rather, to keep from infecting OTHERS.
And in both cases, they have little if any concern for infecting others.
Our dear leader really doesn’t give a rat’s ass about ANYONE other than himself.
It would be interesting to know just how many of the protesters in any state were actually from other states. It would also be interesting to compare their payments—jealousy is such a powerful motivator!
After hearing about the White House valet and the VP’s staffer, I’m keeping my fingers crossed for a real-life version of Edgar Allan Poe’s Masque of the Red Death.

Some artistic license with the Firearms but the one in his left hand is sporting a grenade launcher. Either a 37 or 40mm, fun in a bucket for sure.

Trump said, “I knew it was a pandemic all along.”
So does that mean he has been purposefully killing Americans?
