I won't call her any vulgar names. I owe her that respect as governor, but her policies are inconsistent at best, unconstitutional at worst.

Pence was a moron for not wearing a mask at a facility filled with patients suffering from cancer.

His quote is rich:
https://www.npr.org/sections/coronaviru ... ayo-clinic

Someone should inform Mike Pence that face masks do not cover one's eyes! What a dumbass!!!

While the chances of him currently being a carrier of the virus are very low, if infection occurred very recently, the virus may still be at levels undetectable by testing.
Morgan Wallen is a piece of garbage.

I bet Pence would have worn the mask if someone told him it would keep the gay disease away.

It wouldn't shock me if Trump instructed him not to wear a mask.

I'm sure he was tested before he went in, so I don't think he put others at risk. He probably has been given a vaccine for everything known to man.

I don't think it was wise to go in without a mask, but he if has been vaccinated and knows he's not a risk, then I can see him forgoing it for clarity reasons.

To be clear, I did not call her a vulgar name. Victor introduced my use of the word (mostly directed at men, btw) in his red herring statement.

I apologize for being so hard on you, little Matty. I heard that you have been inconsolable since you misplaced your Ann Coulter mink mitten.

But They’ve said the same thing at the federal level... they recommended everybody where a mask... so he’s also doing as I say and not as I do...

Precisely what I was saying: if you're outraged about Pence not wearing a mask, the outrage needs to extend to Karen.

Yes and No.

Whitmer has locked down the state and required masks. The Fed's have not.

Isn’t that still masks in certain enclosed settings though? You don’t need one walking down the street... similarly CDC’s recommendation that Pence was standing on the stage for when it was announced is emphasizing in public places...

Another false equivalence. While I do believe that the Governor made a mistake not wearing a mask in public, she was in her own building, with her own people. The Vice President was visiting a hospital where everyone including him is asked to wear a mask, and he declined. The visual alone is stunningly bad PR.
