WASHINGTON— President Donald Trump wore a mask during a visit to a military hospital on Saturday, the first time the president has been seen in public with the type of facial covering recommended by health officials as a precaution against spreading or becoming infected by the novel coronavirus.Trump flew by helicopter to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in suburban Washington to meet wounded servicemembers and health care providers caring for COVID-19 patients. As he left the White House, he told reporters: “When you’re in a hospital, especially ... I think it’s expected to wear a mask.”Trump was wearing a mask in Walter Reed’s hallway

I am feeling outnumbered. Wife and I were out for a ride; mask reconnaissance at many local stores. Most have signs requiring masks. Wife saw a young unmasked couple turned away from our Wally World.

Well, of course he wore a mask. He went to visit people in a hospital. You HAVE to wear a mask in a hospital. What a stupid story.

And, it is not the first time he wore a mask in public: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-refuses-wear-mask-front-cameras-during-ford-tour-n1212466 .

My parish went with masks two weeks ago, and this week the governor of Louisiana became as stupid as Abbott, and made it statewide.
Last week I drove 30 minutes to buy groceries without a mask. Then I drove 20 minutes to move a CD to a new bank that did not require masks on customers.
I am waiting to find out if churches are exempt from the statewide order, as they were from the parish. I have gone 6 weeks in a row without a mask; I refuse to wear a muzzle to go to my church! Surely they are not planning to try to "prohibit the free exercise of religion"!
But even I wore a mask in the hospital when I went to visit my father (in the hallways).

Do you think the fact that he visited a hospital may have some connection to his wearing a mask? This requires more in-depth examination, Flash!
News reporters; they’re always on their game!

The only place I have worn a mask is visiting a friend who is being treated for cancer and in a doctor's office.

Is PDT wearing a special POTUS face mask? At least he isn't wearing a hard white plastic mask or a little whimpy one.
Buy, hey, PDT can never look as cool as Biden does when Biden wears the mask hanging on his ear./s

Another big leftist and liberal Democrat and so-called mainstream (liberal) media complaint against President Trump just got flushed down the drain, as Trump wore a mask!

Got into a little spat tonight with my liberal brother over masks. He finally said, “Why won’t people just do the right thing and conform?” I told him that word made the hair on the back of my neck stand up. They just don’t get it.

Yes, POTUS is wearing a mask with the Presidential Seal on it. Quite handsome! But I think I can see sadness in his eyes.
Thank you, Mr. President, for loving our troops, for loving the people, for loving our Country.
Then there's that dolt, Biden. I thought, Where the heck has he been for the past several months, especially during the initial crisis, saying that President Trump was somehow AWOL? Then i remembered, Ahhh! Biden's been in his basement, getting the initial brainwashing treatments:
He wakes up in a new world every day. The birds are tweeting, the sun is shining. the rain is raining. the geese are honking. and all those words, those words they keep whispering in his ears.
The past goes swirling and whirling through the addled brain.
