I applaud President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden for setting a good example for the American public, by masking up, getting vaccinated and boosted, and practicing social distancing.
It’s quite a contrast from the previous administration, in which former president Donald Trump never donned a mask and the White House was a corona hot spot.
The Bidens are modeling good behavior by wearing a mask, but putting on a mask as they crossed the White House lawn after disembarking from Marine One is modeling idiotic behavior.
To put on a mask under these circumstances, especially considering that the lawn was deserted except for a handful of Secret Service agents, is signal is virtue signaling at best and a sign of dementia at worst.
This insane episode comes just a couple of months after the Bidens were pictured wearing face coverings on a deserted Delaware beach while walking their new puppy. I’m surprised they didn’t put a mask on the puppy.
Enough with the bullshit! The CDC updated its guidance in December to say that Americans who are fully vaccinated can safely go maskless indoors or outdoors, with the exception of crowded indoor settings.
The Bidens should follow the damn science! I am fully vaccinated and boosted, practice social distancing and wear a mask when appropriated, but when I see Biden wearing a mask when walking on the White House lawn or a deserted beach, I fell like ripping it off from his face.
