Seriously doubt there would be that much advertising. People wear their own clothes as spectators. So nothing else to conclude other than this is really an ad.

China sucks

Um....what?

Copied another Aussie invention from the nrl!

Imagine how toxic that water is.

This clearly must be Trumps fault .

Hmmm... didn’t the CCP just flood Wuhan by opening up all the dams at once?

Honest poll. Virus came from:

That seems unhealthy

I guess they warning ⚠️ us now that flood is coming .

FREE PALESTINE

To be fair, he's probably dodging Israeli bullets 🙄

good for him

PROPAGANDA MACHINE. THE GREAT INSTIGATOR. FALSIFIER -Stalin - We need a clean sweep of the past.

LynnCatWalters Trump to reporters: you wearing masks to be politically correct!!!

Is it wrong to say he looks great with his face covered?

He was around Corona patients wasn’t he?

Ah presidency how sweet you are.

No further comments!

So July 11 It 3 months after the CDCgov recommended

February and every day since would’ve been a good time

zafarwestern Is he going for another mind boggling difficult cognitive test?😂😂😂😂 What a Bonehead

I've suddenly lost all respect for this man.

One time one place… Does realDonaldTrump want a trophy or a medal?

What if we start to see a decline with the virus and we discover tRump was the super super spreader?

He's lying again in a pathetically desperate attempt to gain votes from: * people that knew he couldn't be trusted with power. * people that are finally realizing his being a con artist and pandering bigot doesn't help them pay their bills or REALLY improve their lives.

Wow! A fleating moment of leadership

Jajaja.el.pobre 'viejecito' ah de tener bien herido su orgullo. obligarlo a tan semejante bajeza...

Ya hydroxychloroquine works so idk why your pushing fear. Oh wait cause your Fake News.

Trump Virus! TrumpDeathToll136K TrumpIsANationalDisgrace

How many lives could have been saved had Trump acted faster? 'Most of them'

Yep...all the time and every place

Hospitals need to mitigate germs as well as viruses

Whatever happened to America as the world's early adopter and leader in ingenuity and productivity? Why are we the last one put put on a mask in a GLOBAL PANDEMIC?

Let's point out that this is a lie.

POTUS this is all for show. Yes u should wear a mask in the hospital BUT u should’ve been wearing one from the beginning. This is not political it’s about respecting and being a human being and thinking about being safe/healthy.

Are you going to sneak in and get the syphilis checked out? I think those little buggers are getting a little too active.

Heard they set up reporters in the hallway for yet another photo op

Bullshite photo-op.

Lying fool.

Loser

Because no hospital would let him in without one

Weak

Like during a world wide pandemic!!!!!!!!

'In Trump's America, a criminal who lies to protect Trump goes free. A war hero who testifies truthfully about Trump's conduct gets fired. This is Trump's 'law and order'. This is Trump's banana republic. This is Trump's America.' 👏👏👏RVAT2020

Got dayum, he has a fat face.

You should be wearing a bag or your head. How many of those soldiers were wounded because “ your mentor Putin “ put a bounty on their head. We’ll never forget the treason at Helsinki ! Putin was “ powerful in his denial “ What can you expect from a coward five -time draft dodger

Liar in chief!

A supergluing prank chance gone wasted!

Americans do beleive, really!?

I imagine the mask also symbolizes a psychological mask shielding his guilt and shame of coming face to face with military personnel creating a boundary between him and the RussianBounty .

The time and place is when he can see his reelection prospects collapsing.

The time and place are whenever you are around other people.

Just playin'. Of course, you have to wear a mask in a hospital. This just happens to be my favorite art piece by Erté, 'Samson and Delilah.'

Really, trump thinks he looks like the Lone Ranger!

Trump’s a corrupt fraud.

murderer. maybe he can tell the servicemen and women about the bounties on their heads by his friend Putin.

If they can, so can this POtuS...

Why does no one give a shit about protecting eyes and getting covered from all the live virus feces particles that go airborne out of flushed toilets?

It is all for show. He wants the votes come November.

Took him long enough! tookhimlongenough

Houston has an outbreak of a mutated Coronavirus. Arizona hospitalization were related to Mexico travel. This needs more investigation

Blood on his hands!

Amry?

Great Now Abbot is putting military personnel in harms way, due to Abbott’s gross error in opening Texas and being 45’s lap dog!!!! RESIGN

hoaxvirus !

Man you people who leave tasteless comments and shit are messed up! These are people dying and need help! Who cares we are suppose to be Americans! Stop being shitty in nameless posts and let’s step up and help!

Maybe he should call WHO.

But schools open in Texas in 5 weeks. This is a train wreck.

TrumpGate Since he was impeached nothing has changed with the most corrupt president in our history. Please retweet and follow us!

The Trump administration’s split-screen coronavirus messageCongress needs to spend nearly half-a-trillion dollars on initiatives to fight the coronavirus if it hopes to minimize the damage done, a pair of economists estimate I'm sure we'll borrow it from China. Then Trump can pretend how bad they are for the US. Perhaps if they stopped the corporate welfare this time around. This won’t happen because we need to hand billions to the Catholic Church and Trump Family and Friends for PPP instead of small businesses.

Trump and Fauci not speaking as coronavirus pandemic worsensWith coronavirus raging, President Trump and Dr. Fauci are no longer speaking. The President has taken to openly criticizing him on television. Fauci is expressing puzzlement at some of Trump's claims. Do any actual journalists work for you? That's how he treat anyone who doesn't worship him. He wants to be a dictator and tell everyone what to do, hear, see, act, and believe. They don't even know what they're fight for. For faces? How crazy are these people exactly? Don't you need to know?

Fauci says Trump is 'obviously' wrong that '99%' of coronavirus is 'harmless' - Business InsiderBusiness Insider is a fast-growing business site with deep financial, media, tech, and other industry verticals. Launched in 2007, the site is now the largest business news site on the web. 99.7% or probably more aren’t deadly - something to consider when you shut down a society with all its devastating consequences - serious cases are real no doubt, many are due to poor health so dont blame the virus, blame yourself! Our deaths per 1000 population is 4/1000 and cases are 10/1000. Trump is correct.
