Confused Republican Louie Gohmert Wonders If Wearing a Mask Led to Positive COVID Test

on Wednesday prior to joining President Trump aboard Air Force One for a trip to Texas, where the pandemic is currently wreaking havoc on the state’s residents.

Now, this was an understandably confusing turn of events for Gohmert. He was probably pretty excited to join the president on a trip to his home state, and certainly didn’t expect to test positive for a virus he clearly hadn’t been taking very seriously. Until recently, the 66-year-old congressman steadfastly refused to wear a mask, claiming that he’d wear one only if he tested positive.

after testing positive on Wednesday, Gohmert called the result “ironic” because “in the last week or two I have worn a mask more than I have in the whole last four months.”ironic, in fact, that he questioned whether it was a coincidence at all. Maybe, he wondered, it was thethat gave him COVID.

Haha I love the header “confused republican” 🤣😂

Damned stupid arrogant ignoramus, that one.

Before I went into surgery I asked my surgeon, “Are you sure you want to wear that thing?”

Do these COVID tests come with a complementary STUPID test? Some of these guys need to be tested on STUPID multiple times a day... And I bet there’d be very very few false positives when these tests are done..

Awesome pic!! Look at this slack jawed simpleton 😂

He may be the dumbest person alive.

Thoughts and prayers. Oh, and take away Gohmert's health care before it costs the USA Congress any payments.

Seriously, there wasn't any other person on the planet that could have run for this guy's congressional seat?

Stupid is as stupid does.

Sure Louie and your hair is too small for your head. Wearing that damned condom is how you got the clap.

replouiegohmert omg what a dumbass! Are all of the GOP this stupid or are they just so greedy that they play stupid? in either case they have failed Americans! GohmertIsAnIdiot GOPBetrayedAmerica

Gohmert showing signs of brain deterioration.

this would make sense if he wore a mask, but he refused to.

Poor dumb republican replouiegohmert

It almost appears as if it's some kind of contest...🤔🥴

Proving...you just can't fix stupid!🙄

Wear a mask, social distancing ,and wash your hands.

Dear heavens, where do these morons come up with this crap? Admit you were wrong and use yourself as an example to help your constituents with this pandemic...it’s not that hard

Who voted for this man?!

Rep. Gohmert is 4 times more intelligent than the person that wrote this “article.”

Actually, one of the reasons Dr. Fauci HIMSELF gave for NOT wearing masks (remember when he told us that?) was the exact reason Rep. Gohmert just gave - specifically that if you keep adjusting the mask (and your hands have germs on them), you MAY infect yourself.

This is shocking news! Louie Gohmert passed a test!?!?

I guess that explains the 394,000 other Texans then.

Keeping all those germs in the mask and rebreathing them is not a good idea. It can possibly kill you

Change confused to dumb.

He was drunk he said that

Nobody could possibly be this stupid. Is he trolling us?

Someone tell him a condom can’t give him STDs.
