As we all know, wearing or not wearing a mask is a political statement: wearing a mask means you are Democrat, not wearing the mask means you are Republican. So its weird when people that were vaccinated stopped wearing the masks. Getting vaccinated is a Democrat thing to do, so since they are Democrats, they should wear them.

In any case, I think we should come up with a game where there is a Democrat team and a Republican team. It is common in games for teams to be visually distinguished. Typically they do it by the color of the jacket or something. But I, instead, suggest them to separate by means of masks: people on Democrat team have a mask and people on Republican team don't.

Since people on BOTH teams are interested in the rules of the game being followed, you will get some funny situations, such as a Democrat reminding the Republican to take the mask off, or a Republican reminding the Democrat to put it on :)

Thats what their actions show. When Pence distanced himself from Trump, he famously put the mask on :)

Never trust politicians, religious leaders, or their followers.  Trust science instead.

People wear masks because they want to stay healthy.  People do not wear masks because they either received the necessary vaccines or because they are under-age, incapacitated, or stupid.

In Trump's case, he does not wear a mask because he received the vaccine -- even HE trusts science...

:roll: ... in spite of being stupid.

Are you saying he received a vaccine a lot sooner than he said about it? I mean he was without the mask from the get go, but he only received vaccine in 2021 as far as I know.

Am I?  Find out for yourself.

Anyway, your OP fails on false premises.

The website here https://www.cnn.com/2021/03/01/politics ... index.html says they received it in January 2021. Yet Trump was without a mask much much earlier than that.

Actions speak louder than words. This is what it looks like across the party lines.

Vaccinated people can still contract and spread COVID, so I'm still going to wear a mask.
Not to mention, it's all on "the honor system", so there's no way that I'm going to trust that some maskless stranger is actually vaccinated and not just a "patriot".
