Gov Inslee WA faults Trump for failing to push masks amid "critical" COVID resurgence
CBS NEWS ^ | June 28, 2020 | MELISSA QUINN

Washington Governor Jay Inslee faulted President Trump for failing to urge Americans to wear masks amid a surge in coronavirus infections in more than two dozen states, likening Mr. Trump's resistance to masks to Alabama governor and segregationist George Wallace's opposition to integration.

"Right now, we are in an urgent national mission, or should be, to mask up," Inslee, a Democrat, said on "Face the Nation." "And the fact is that Donald Trump is for masking up like George Wallace was for integration."

Inslee said universal masking is crucial to reopening states' economies, and added that "all of us should be on that bandwagon right now."

Hey, Gov Inslee it is obvious you have been asleep during the dozens of phone calls between the governors and the Corona Virus Task Force.

President Trump and the Corona Virus Task Force have told you dozens of times that it is YOUR responsibility to take whatever measures you deem appropriate for your state.

My libtard friends on Fakebook are all in sync right now on mask shaming--so I figure that marching orders have been passed to them from the Overlords via the Lamedstream Media.

Hey Inslee, focus on WA and forget about Trump; he’s living free in your brain or what there is of it.

I expect the karen-gaggle on nextdoor around me to start sooner or later.

FB got dumped so many years ago. Don’t miss it.

Thanks for giving me yet another reason why I would sooner pass through a needle’s eye than have a Facebook account.

“””My libtard friends on Fakebook are all in sync right now on mask shaming”””


Just maybe this is the new method the Democrats are using to collect polling data.

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) website
plainly states that cloth face masks “Will not protect the wearer against
airborne transmissible infectious agents due to loose fit and lack of seal
or inadequate filtration.”
But, what about surgical masks? OHSA is clear here also that they “will
not protect the wearer against airborne transmissible infectious agents
due to loose fit and lack of seal or inadequate filtration.”

My libtard friends ...

You need better friends. I am in the process of jettisoning all my friends who have libtard tendencies. Life is too short to spend time with idiots.

The Democrat-Communist spread of this virus at gatherings of tens of thousands of leftists in cities from coast to coast.

Not a word about masks during that.

It’s appropriate for the President to defer policy tactics to those departments empowered to specialize in those policies.
The CDC said “don’t use masks”, so appropriate for the President to defer to that expert opinion.

This is also a free country, so every d@mn one of you should be smart enough to wear masks as you deem fit. POTUS may _advise_ wise (or moronic) action, but it’s up to y’all to act as you see best fit.

In between, governors and mayors are certainly empowered to advise their jurisdictions as circumstances dictate. As example, it was entirely up to Gov Inslee to advise residents of Washington to, or to not, wear masks amid “critical” COVID resurgence. By now everyone has appropriate information (if you lack it, check your state at rt.live - if the Rt number is >1, stay the **** home and wear a **** mask).

Masks are mere placebos, at best.
At worst, they are an hypoxia hazzard. Have seen that in a couple of places.

Even when it’s NOT an election year, everything bad is Trump’s fault (or whoever the republican president is). It’s a democrat truism, also known as a lie.
