A couple of months ago, even with the increasing number of cases, President Trump refused to wear a mask in front of the cameras and told photographers that:
I had one on before. I wore one in this back area but I didn’t want to give the press the pleasure of seeing it.

I’ve never been against masks, but I do believe they have a time and a place.
-Donald Trump

One other good thing about Trump a mask is that it may prevent him from talking stupid things.

Donald Trump puts on a damn mask and some of his enablers think he’s a conquering hero, he’s won the election and he looks so tough. Where was he 130k deaths ago when this simple act could have saved tens of thousands of lives and limited so much tragedy?

He swarms military uniforms around him to boost his macho image yet runs to the bunker when peaceful protesters threaten him.

WATCH: President Stunt Queen Trump finally wears a mask, traipses down a hall for the cameras and I doubt he will ever wear one again.
