GOP Opposition To Masks ‘Unconscionable, Incomprehensible And Outrageous’ | The Last Word | MSNBC

  1. Telling Trump cultists they should wear masks during a pandemic is like telling a child not to stick a key into a power outlet.

    1. Actually the difference is most kids won’t stick the key in the socket afterwards while trumpists will do it, just to try to spite us. X3

    1. But it’s important to keep in mind, the people who are wearing masks, aren’t wearing them because they’re liberals. They’re doing it because it’s a pragmatic way to stop the spread. But Republicans are refusing to wear a mask because they believe it’s a political issue. That’s how far gone they are. They would risk death, just to spite liberals. The phrase “cutting of your nose, to spite your face” comes to mind…

  2. It’s just goes to show you must people in the white house and our government doesn’t care about people lives

  3. It’s just a little bit of cloth on your face. Astounding that something so little can cause so much division when people are dying in droves. Ultimate facepalm. 🤦🏼‍♂️

    1. maybe Because their ridiculous and dont Work ? Im not wearing one , EVER . Life can finally get Back to NORMAL and you crazy mask Sheep are seriously trying to RUIN IT all & make our Economy bad .. PLEASE people get back To Work NOW do not believe The fake news media

    2. Icƴ Jade you’re 100% right. I don’t live in America and literally every single person I know, all over the world, looks at these science denying Trump voters in utter disbelief. It’s amazing to see so many people bury their heads in the sand, even while gigantic numbers of people in the USA are becoming infected and dying. It’s so sad to watch. I truly hope you have better days ahead in the USA.

    3. @Grilled Cheese PhD china been wearing masks for 5 years. The virus spread anyway. Cuz virus are too small to be blocked by a t shirt. Hello?

  4. Isn’t the question, what does Putin pay in exchange of a ” LOYAL UNTIL DEATH ” PLEDGE FROM GOHMERT

    1. LOL🤣 yes there’s only democrats and russian operatives and somehow this was only discovered in 2015🤣 MORON

  5. I can’t even go grocery shopping unless I’m wearing a mask.
    They won’t let me in the store without one.

  6. Watching the slow motion car crash that is America’s inexorable descent into third world status is horrifying

    1. @john emeigh right, he’s an alarmist. The president is also trying to delay the election. Burying your head in the sand, makes for an easy target. Then again… You are a Republican.

    2. @FirstRyan Murray LOL I’m Libertarian, but that doesn’t matter. Delay election? So what. He triggered you, that counts. Win… by any means. Marxism (you) is dead.

  7. 150,000 dead and too many Americans are still not wearing masks.
    Are you gonna start when there is 200,000….300,000….?
    This will not end until you do!

    1. @Пацантрэ ВащеРебята also I’m glad you left your other crappy question bin the trash where it belongs. Lol, adorable.

    2. @Пацантрэ ВащеРебята ****pandemic**** apparently you folks need some good quality schools over there too. 🤷🏾‍♂️ We will get together on that soon enough buddy.🍻

    3. @Aru B At least after our schools people know where which continent and country is. Your guys dont know where Iraq and Vietnam are after waging war against them for a couple of decades

    4. @Пацантрэ ВащеРебята Did they teach you that vodka was actually invented in Poland? It’s true. : )

    5. Democrats teach how to have hurt feelings & be outraged & they are racists. So if you are white , you should feel so bad anout yourself that you cave to any social pressure & begin burning your own Cities down in effort to not be called racist! Soo pathetic.

    1. @Rick JamesYup, and if you dont date transwomen – you’re transphobic

    2. Do you idiots have to blame everything on Trump? Even if Trump wasn’t in office, a mask doesn’t prevent you from getting covid, smh

    3. It’s a fear of communism. Well founded. But conservatives are supposed to be smart with all the money they make. Yet can’t comprehend that simultaneous things could be occurring at once?

  8. Just think.. Gohmert, if he wasn’t going on Air Force one so he got tested, he would have been at the Capitol infecting so many people.. This is unacceptable at every level..

  9. Did Pelosi also order the mask to be worn on the face, over the nose and mouth, and not as a belt, around the neck or in a pocket? There are incredibly stupid members of Congress. They are called Republicans.

  10. “No one’s gonna tell me what to do!” is so deeply engrained in the American’s psyche that thousands of citizens will die needlessly for their arrogance.

    1. THIS is the real reason covid has spread and continues to spread. It has ZERO to do with Trump and everthing to do with entitled morons.

  11. They don’t mind wearing a mask when holding Tiki lites saying Jews will not relplace us.
