'Start wearing a mask': Sen. Sherrod Brown chastises Sen. Rand Paul on Senate floor

Ohio Sen. Sherrod Brown once again called out his colleagues in the U.S. Senate on Thursday for not wearing face masks – this time a senator from a neighboring state.

During debate over a budget resolution, Brown briefly interrupted proceedings.

"... I would like to ask Senator Paul, in front of everybody, to start wearing a mask on the Senate floor like the entire staff does all the time," said Brown, a Democrat from Cleveland. "I wish Senator Paul would show the respect to his colleagues to wear a mask when he's on the Senate floor walking around and speaking."

Sen. Rand Paul, a Republican from Bowling Green, didn't respond to Brown's request and returned to his seat.

Daddy is the one he takes after. Same nonsensical arguments. Same conspiracy nonsense. Same bloviating and grandstanding. Same voting no on everything for attention.

First I have heard of someone asking public in session for another member to wear a mask. About time! Thank you Sen. Brown.

Rand should get his mask stapled to his cheeks so it stays nice and tight fitting.

I bet he fears him, if he’s too stupid to understand how viruses work.
