If it were left up to Biden, we would not have restricted flights from China, because he was saying it was racist and xenophobic.

Nonetheless, it's a lousy optic. He probably forgot.
Millions of Americans have already caught this virus and recovered, so I always wonder how many of the non mask wearing folks are those people who are now immune

Yes it is. Who is it that you think could give a definitive answer to “how long?” Shall we just query the virus and ask how long it intends to stay?

You mean taking it seriously by immediately violating his own mandate and wandering around the Lincoln memorial without a mask?

My problem wasn’t that Biden and his family didn’t wear their mask on federal property. My problem is the press reaction to Biden not wearing the mask compared to the criticism Trump received from the press for not wearing a mask. Just another example of their bias.

Biden didn’t care about social distancing for the National Guard Members who came to protect him. Putting them in a parking garage without even close to enough facilities.

If you put in a rule and ignore it yourself, you are a hypocrite and show that your rule has no value.

I think the rule is clearly unconstitutional with regard to outdoor spaces. There is no justification.

This was just a taste of how Biden will flaunt our laws and Constitution as president.

He's already proven that his ideological agenda surpasses any concern for the common man, by arbitrarily signing executive orders to destroy tens of thousands of energy jobs, during a freaking world pandemic, no less.

Huh? Does President Biden realize we've been wearing masks for months? Like almost 9 months where I live

There is a huge diff between being asymptomatic and death and it is not pretty.
The first U.S. death known to be from a person infected with COVID-19 occurred on Feb. 6


First recorded Covid death in U.S. was from massive heart attack, autopsy says
