It's becoming the season of a TV show though, that should've called it quits last season.

So you only started to wear a Mask now once there was heavy pressure to use it?Just like me, Trump wears a mask when he's feels it is warranted.

His recent pronouncements regarding hydroxychloroquine and intravenous UV suggest he's not exactly chemo savvy.I'm not sure Trump knows what the Lone Ranger looks like:
I guess he's wearing his mask on his eyes and leaving his nose and mouth uncovered, that way he doesn't have to see what's going on and can still spout utter BS.
Chemo savvy? Kemo sabe? Geddit?!? Er... guess I'll be leaving. Now.

oooooooohhhkkaaayyyyy
It was warranted in March. Everybody knew that except Trump. That he's wearing one now in a single photo, in July, after his country is deep in the grips of a pandemic that it knew about and ignored after following his lead, highlights how irresponsible his behavior has been to date.
Secondly, you've misunderstood everything about mask wearing. Unless you're an epidemiologist, you should listen to one about when to wear a mask. It's not about what you "feel" or what Trump "feels". Also, if you're not basing your mask wearing on what others are feeling, you're a jerk.
For example, I know that I do not currently have COVID (or if I do, I'm completely 100% asymptomatic, I don't even have allergies at the moment). Yet later today when I'm meeting a friend, I will be masked. I'm not concerned about my friend having COVID, and I'm not concerned about getting it from them based on how we will be meeting. But I will be masked anyway because I want them to be comfortable. It's not just about me, it's about them.
These folks walking around in public with no mask because they don't "feel it's warranted" don't seem to understand how the rest of us think they're just a huge a-hole. Lack of mask wearing is a giant sign on their face saying "I'm a giant selfish prick who would never lift a finger for anyone else, even in the middle of a pandemic". And that has been Trump. A huge selfish a-hole.
If I'm getting takeout from a drive thru, I put a mask on despite the fact that all of the employees there are masked. Why? Because I want them to be comfortable. That fast food employee can still get COVID from a non-mask-wearing patron who coughs simply because they lack eye protection. Sure, you're safe from them, but they're not safe from the hundreds of selfish jerks who roll through.
The fact that so many conservatives can't seem to understand this also undermines individual freedoms is mind blowing. Trump and so many of his faithful have done so much damage to personal liberty. When they refuse to wear masks in public what they say is "I can't be trusted with freedom, I need my government to lock things down". Such irony.

I was poking at something else. There is a notion that because you know you're safe for them to be around (ignoring for a moment that it's damned near impossible to know that), they don't know that. But one would need to be willing to put themselves in the shoes of others to take the leap and mask themselves even though they feel that they're "safe" to be around.

Is it just me or does Trump's mouth still look big even with a mask on?

YOU not wearing a mask is limited to the effect you might have on the people you come into into personal contact with. Trump not wearing a mask has had an effect on the behaviour of tens of millions of Americans.

And the Long Ranger doesn't even wear it over his mouth so what is he talking about?

So it wasn't warranted until after 120,000 people died and half the country yelled MISSION ACCOMPLISHED and forced a disastrous reopening.
Got it.

Oh great, can I make the joke again?And the Long Ranger doesn't even wear it over his mouth so what is he talking about?

Don't worry, I won't make the terrible joke again. But you been tree'd, dude.
If anything, wearing a mask over the lower part of his face makes him look like el desperado. Which is Mexican for the desperate one.

It's fascinating the way the human brain fills in for missing optical information.

This photo is from May. I assumed you guys would be better informed. But don't let my post interrupt your ignorance driven narrative. Carry on.
...that's worse.

whoosh
This is a person who has said that he won't wear masks even when he goes to medical facilities producing masks just to taunt reporters into asking him about it. He's said and done these things knowing that doing so would make wearing a mask a political dividing line so his sycophants could go into grocery stores and pick fights with people wearing them on his behalf.
I'll make it a bit easier for you:
What has changed now after 3 months of him making it a point to refuse to wear masks in public and to downplay their importance, to him acting like they are great and make you look cool and everyone should wear them? It's obvious it worked on you, because you've already convinced yourself that "Trump wore a mask once two months ago" overrides everything else to the extent that you think it's a "gotcha" when it's... uh... not, but that's neither here nor there. Is it really because he thinks it makes him look like someone from a TV show from the 50s, and that's the extent of thought he's put into sesible preventative measures for a respiratory virus? You've acted like you had the direct line to Trump's inner circle beforewhen trying to correct people noting the stupid things he's said, so even if you plan on ignoring what Danoff said above in favor of what you think is an easy "checkmate, liberals" response, you should have the answers to why the sudden change of heart.

Yeah, sorry, I guess I've been using it a lot. I just appreciate its mix of alluring and awkward.

Gotcha. I read it as facetious; "Keep posting that...it's not old at all."
