Vain Donny will not wear a mask.

From Gerald Seib

At the regular White House coronavirus briefing Friday, President Trump announced that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, after weeks of conflicting advice, had changed its guidance to Americans about wearing face masks to this: Wear them in public.

That will help reduce the spread of the disease to new victims from people who don’t know they are carrying the virus.

But then the president undercut his own announcement by declaring that he wouldn’t wear a mask: “Somehow, I don’t see it for myself…I won’t be doing it personally.”

of course he resents being told he should actually wear one that is visible. Why, he would have to unmask his own face and put it back on, on and off and on and off, no, he's not gonna do it.

COVID-19. He thinks disease is for people with lesser genes.

18. I don't know why. It would certainly improve his appearance.

And if he wore it tight enough it might even prevent him from breathing. Double bonus.

Who does he think he is? He won't wear glasses, he won't wear a mask. Does he really think that anyone finds him attractive at his age? In the condition he is in? As hideous as he is?

As if anything could possibly make him less attractive than he already is? His vanity is so outrageous. Nobody looks at him as an object of desire. I don't know why he would ever assume that anyone would.
