@rosannecash

My daughter lives in Nashville & wore her mask to buy groceries. Guy yells at her: ‘Liberal pussy!’ Back story: she nearly died of H1N1. She was in the ICU for a week, on a ventilator for 3 days. She CANNOT get covid. The ignorance & hatred is so painful. She’s trying to survive.

the new political divide, I would have laughed. I just don't understand why this should be an issue.

I live in New Jersey and you can't go into any store without one by state mandate so I haven't seen any of the bad behavior toward those wearing a mask, but it really is incredible that something that can literally save your life or the life of others has become a partisan symbol.

I was in Philadelphia last week and just about every single person I saw on the street had a mask on - it was impressive.

It's kinda bad enough that there's a pandemic going on, I can't imagine having to deal with some of these jackasses in person.

Between Amazon and Insta-Cart I've been able to get everything I need from coffee to cat food to toilet paper (the trifecta in this household).

Trump is incapable of uniting people. He thrives off of division and chaos. This virus was an almost perfect opportunity to unite the country and lead. He just had to show a modicum of humanity but he is entirely incapable of it. Instead he worried about his television ratings, settling scores, how he would appear in public with a mask, etc...

Trump made this a political divide and the GOP went right along with him instead of standing up for what is correct. We have seen Trump and the GOP fight against policies that the GOP promoted not too long ago, just because our side had embraced them as potential compromises. The GOP was defending RUSSIA for tampering in our elections REPUBLICANS! Even traitors Nixon and Reagan are likely turning in their graves on that one.

There is no low to which Trump and the GOP will sink to mobilize their base of crazy people.

works with a Trumpster that does nothing but torments him about his mask. We try to tell him he's doing the right thing, but it does get to him after a while. I just really feel bad for him.

I will rip their tiny, pointed, head off. Fucking losers.

I will not lay down and die for pathetic assholes. They will have a massive fight on their hands.

You have a problem with my mask? I have a big problem with you.
