Sen. Lamar Alexander , who chairs the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions, told CNN Sunday that it would help if Mr. Trump wore a mask in public because it might eliminate political stigma associated with the practice.
Come on! Are you serious! NY times... like anyone believes anything you write. You and your staff are a joke...oh no for real. Not a joke
Lamar decided to put his big boy pants on today
The saying goes “lead from the front.”
ninnynoomy
Good luck on that.
No it would not help because it has not been proven that it stops the spread. If we were still listening to the experts, The U.S. would still be closed down, as I know some of it still is,despite what news sources say. Totally disagree with the “experts” on mask wearing.
So don’t we’re one why is this news. What’s your point. If you think that it is not needed than don’t we’re one but don’t tell the others that want to to not put one on.
Nope
Yes, preferably soundproof!
Look at the difference in approach towards Covid-19 btw UK & US leaders-UK ldr got it n learned its reality; manages UK well. Trump n Pence must get it soon, struggle to breathe for any real change in US!
Why?
Masks don’t protect you, masks protect others from getting the virus from you. Trump obviously doesn’t have the virus.
Stupid article from what used to be a good financial publication!
ITS UP TO THE INDIVIDUAL TO WEAR A MASK I DON'T. KEEP DISTANCE AND WASH YOUR HANDS FREQUENTLY.
Masks prevent you from spreading it. Trump gets tested daily, he doesn't need a mask.
Every other countrys citizen is putting on a mask
Research is big world for a lot of people
Fake News
chadterhune He’s making a speech. It will be mumbling with a mask. He should wear a mask in public crowded places otherwise.
Literally, Joe Biden pulls his down all the time. And the president is tested daily twits
The CDC/health experts can’t make up their mind about masks. One week we need them or we will die, next week they are excessive and optional.
😂😂😂 I haven’t put a mask on in public at all! 😝😝
Six months later? If he puts a mask on it only will be for a Photo op and campaign ad. Tell him he should wear one though but it won't help his re-election chances. Damages done! Even on the economy its only his when it's good. Tell him it doest work like that.
He's tested daily. He doesn't need to wear a mask if he doesn't have the virus. Get over yourself.
Really now us is advised mask
He wouldn’t wear one as most likely he would look like a KKK or Head of Gestapo then calling “ Heil Hitler” replacing by his supporters chanting “Heil Trump”. maddow;HoodBinJin1
File this under: he won’t.
I agree. This virus has certainly taken a dangerous turn...Nashville is required to wear masks inside and outside. An infected person can leave Covid germs in a space for 10 to 20 minutes after that person has passed I read. For that specific reason I wear a mask everywhere.
And Alexander is an enabler who told Trump he can do whatever he wants to do
He's not man enough to wear a mask.
He’s too good looking and will also look just plain ol’ weak; nor should his son-in-law Handsome Jared wear one. America needs to see these faces. It’s our right!!
Here’s yours, wear your mask 😷
Nope
If all the Americans starts wearing mask and maintain social distancing. We can stop this pendamic easily. realDonaldTrump Buck stops at you. Vice president started wearing mask. You should do that too. 🙏🏼
I don’t understand Trump’s stubbornness on not wearing a mask.
Sounds like they'll be wearing masks at The Ol' Opre. Color of masks worn, to indicate party loyalty.
Come on, be fair. DJT needs a little time to figure out how to put it on and whether the mask goes in the back, to catch his BS or in the front to cover his small ....hands!
No wonder ssd is broke since 1935
Trump you need toodeduct social security tsx from unemployment no wonder our seniors are screwd
It’s a joke , wearing a mask is not good for you breathing in your own carbon dioxide will hurt you in the long term
Mask-wearing is for people concerned they could have it because they don't know either way. Trump gets tested daily; if he knows he's negative it doesn't matter if he wears one. It's not setting a good example to wear one needlessly.
At least carry one like as if you do wear it
DUH !! America, the land of the free and the brave, and the morons.
Go Back to sleep, Sen. Alexander. It's time for you to understand criticizing the President is your job but so is standing firm with him on policy; but can't you leave your chickenshit observations for another day?
“Vanity, thy name is...Donald Trump” 👹
But that will mess up his makeup.
Ooooops. More fake news. The science is not settled on this.
FU WSJ
Trump is too much of an idiot to be able to understand that logic. Biden2020. BLM.
Then trump would have to take responsibility for federal leadership. He wants to Keep plausible deniability so he can say IT ISNT MY FAULT IT WAS THEIR RESPONSIBILITY. WAJE UP
arif_jamila Gee - ya think?
Shaddup, Lamar!
Do you guys realize how ridiculous you look in those masks? What a ridiculous hoax.
Maybe the president knows something...
America elected a clown and now they have a circus.
Unless you wearing a different mask everyday it is a spreader!!
Shut up Lamar
Why wear one when he is at a podium on television with no one near him? You just want the theater.
The “experts” have not said to wear a mask.
Hilarious! All the science / statistics deniers in the media like to ignore that fact that the Covid flu is overwhelmingly asymptomatic or mild, that the % of Americans killed by the Covid flu is extremely low and is comparable to a slightly stronger version of the seasonal flu.
Oh, oh, you are totally wrong. Have you ever seen this Corona virus? It‘s nothing but a hoax. Same with global warming. Lies, lies, lies. sarcasm off
He doesn't like a mask because his makeup will come off & he'll be light pink like his hands.
Trumps only hope would to be start wearing a mask!
'I can't do that, I'm immuno-compromised' 👍 'You can't do that, I'm immuno-compromised' 👎
he plays God, untouchable, but there is a time for everyone ...
He has systematically dismissed proven health protocals, while simultaneously harming US Citizens. He refused to set national health standards as if states aren't connected. He held large gatherings inside.He pushed dangerous medicines later banned & refused to wear a mask. WHY!
Watching Trump & the GOP is like watching the end of Thelma & Louise
Come on Republicans! Press this.
Hey WSJ. How about looking into why FDA ban HydroxyVhloroquine when it is the standard for CV infection in Israel, India, Italy, Spain, etc. BTW N95 only filters 0.3 microns an UP and Corona Virus is 0.12 microns?
is it very far fetched to assume he is not worried, because he was already given plasma with antibodies from recovered patients?
Total BS... Unless you work in an ICU, Nursing Home or around people with underlying conditions... We need the herd immunity... 99+% of the population will fight it off like a flu... The harm of scaring the public is a far greater risk...
USA is the most lame country possible.
Read WSJ Even the pro-mask reviewers admit the evidence is poor quality, usually refers to non-SARS-CoV2 viruses, and doesn't apply to the many, various masks the public use. The pandemic has shown one thing: the media is very lazy.
“how come daddy doesn’t wear one?”
From time to time? What is it, a fashion request? You people are really pathetic.
wearing masks is not important
NoMasks
He would never wear one. Only true leaders would
He's worried it will rub his make-up off.
the real reason. we know why.
Only SheepWearMasks
First pic is right from the WHO website.
Any mask wearing, at this point by the POTUS, would only be perceived as politics. NOT saving lives.
Masks don’t do a goddamn thing against viral transmission. All it does is up your intake of carbon dioxide, lowers your o2 and stops us from socializing face to face!! Your masks are bullshit!! Sweden had it right! Now they’re business as usual!
Never trumper Lamar pushing for federal mandate on face diapers. When I don’t wear one is the fbi going to arrest me and send me to prison?
“All health experts”. 🤣🤣🤣
A different president wouldnt be a bad idea either.
health experts... breathing in your exhalation is the worst for your health. it's not natural to breath back in your own waste product. you breath out for a reason you know... use some ffing common sense here folks. fakepandemic coronahoax
Honestly, shut up. I have watched videos of protesters not wearing masks, not practicing social distancing, and all the Dems/MSM can do is call out the President. You guys are liars. Either masks and social distancing works or it doesn’t; it can’t distinguish between party lines.
This is to avoid filtering any word...
Yes asshole lamar and you could have got ride if him in January. Don't remember? That's right, ask the person who wipes you.
Wear a mask so you don't catch a virus with 99% survival rate? Do you wear body armor when you drive your car? Chances of dying about the same.
Some classic whataboutery among the replies on this thread. Virologists have been learning on the job with coronavirus transmission but every research body that’s reported states face coverings reduce transmission
Na, let him get it
Wearing a mask is being a leader. He’s literally afraid coward of being seen in a mask. Meanwhile, the majority don them to protect others. We don’t love it, but don’t give a damn how we look. We also don’t understand the people having tantrums about wearing masks.
This is a fake news attack, from does corrupt republicans that are on the same side of the socialis, communist [Ds]. We have corrupt Republicans that sooner or later will pay for their actions. Trump 2020 MAGA.
Looks like NYT and WSJ lied again.
Show me a authentic study that concludes that mask help.
THE WSJ lies. ALL health experts doesn't exist. If they can't name names, they are making it up. Nothing new for them.
Baby Trump will not wear mask isn’t that what you love about him?
TurkeyInvadesKurdistan and the world is silent
Check the link below please it's a must watch
they don't do anything you dolts.
Why not “ALL THE TIME” when in public! Leaders should set an example and not what realDonaldTrump is doing 🙏🏼🙏🏼
What about the thousands of protestors? Sure many wore masks...but many didn't at the same time...any concern there MSM?
How crazy of a world do we live in where when a Republican finally says the President should do what's in the best interest of public health, that it's an important news story? TrumpIsAJoke WearAMask SaveAmericans
I have a question. Most people have been wearing masks for months now. How come cases are rising? My friend just asked me.
No. It would not. Opinions are like belly buttons.
It would help? If from time to time? Grow a pair LamarAlexander
Not 'from time to time.' All the time according to the guidance.
Pathetic hand-wringing
Who gives a rat’s ass if he wears one. He is not God, like he tries to portray himself as. If he wants it, let em have it. Stop idolizing him
As an outsider, I can say majority in the world are finding it extremely difficult to understand Americans. 150k plus death, 2.5 mil cases and still surging and you are still debating on whether to wear face masks and the science behind that? A very dysfunctional society.
Wake up! Wear a mask all the time, coward realDonaldTrump.
SenAlexander should not speak anymore. His contributions to our nationsl and international nightmare will never be forgotten. When is he retiring anway? We should thank him for his cluelesness about who Trump is.
Someone should ask if trump isn't wearing a mask because he has a medical condition preventing him to do so
It would help if the president did a lot of thing correctly you repugnant
I have agreed since the science came out in February. Unfortunately, our top health officials were still wholly ignorant. 'One thing Fauci says will not protect you from getting sick is wearing a face mask.'
He can’t be contained.
Found one he might like:
And for the masks to be effective you will have to exchange them every 5 minutes. The experts say.
Remember when all the health experts were telling us explicitly not to wear masks?
Well said ✊🏿
Duct tape would do...
If face mask is a problem for realDonaldTrump why not wear transparent plastic shield? IvankaTrump EricTrump DonaldJTrumpJr POTUS MarkMeadows
It hinders the immune system. They are lying to us.
Amazing what the Dotard numbers tanking will do for self interest
All health experts don't say that
The WSJ has been carrying water for this disaster of a President same as the Senate Republicans.
donald is mentally and emotionally JUST A CHILD!
Oh he’ll be booted out of the cult tomorrow
Wow....Lamar Alexander criticizing the president? A republican speaking out about trump not wearing a mask? It only took 125,000+ deaths. Who's next when we reach 150,000+ deaths?
We shouldn’t be relying on anyone to tell its what is the right thing to do. Do It because it’s the right thing to do not because a politician tells us.
Wishful thinking. Trump is too obstinate.
Fake news Health experts change their mind like the wind. They arent very expertat all. Just a bunch of idiots that are trying to destroy the economy
He is obviously Superman and immune to every disease in the world, right! Trump is the WORST example of what a leader should be - and has caused even more mayhem during this WORLD health crisis.
Why should he? Why should anyone? I refuse to be a good German.
He is the president making a speech whilst social distancing. Everyone is not the president. He is special. Those are the rules - accept them. Some people are more important ThatIsLife
But wearing masks is only important to instill fear, not prevent the virus from going in your eyeballs or through the gaps in the sides of masks. So, please never wear a mask Mr. President!
Mitt Romney is the only electable Republican ever again. Period. I've been a registered R my entire life. The GOP= dead to us. Romney got out and marched weeks ago. His father was a civil rights activist and I believe it was sincere. That plus the impeachment vote. Only one
