Gov. Kim Reynolds (Moron - Iowa) - Late to the Party.

Kim Reynolds, who has previously refused to issue a mask mandate because it goes against her wacko libertarian world view, has finally caved. (Almost)

Reynolds has finally issued a statewide mask mandate. (With stupid exceptions)

This after the coronavirus has killed thousands of Iowans, overran hospitals, and is raging across the state.

It is like someone waiting until the whole building is practically gone before calling the fire department.

However, there are exceptions that will still contribute to the spread. Exceptions include churches. Way to go Kimmie!

After all, who needs to be treated for a virus that doesn't exist in the first place?

This is a health regulation that applies to everyone. There is no rational reason to exempt churches.

Churches have been well documented as coronavirus superspreaders. South Korea traced a major outbreak in its country to an evangelical church. Singing in close quarters indoors showers everyone there with respiratory droplets.

hard decision to let my 83-year-old mom that I could not take the risk of seeing her this Thanksgiving, which would require a drive to NY.

THANK YOU, TRUMPANZEES.
