    I'm starting to like Ted Cruz. We need more people like this who don't kowtow to media requests. I like the polite way he basically told the guy to get lost.

    The way People Magazine reported this was kind of humorous too. You could tell that they were appalled.

    https://people.com/politics/ted-cruz-responds-to-reporter-request-to-wear-a-mask/

    Texas Sen. Ted Cruz is defending himself after he shot down a request from a reporter that he wear a mask while appearing before the press with other lawmakers this week.

    The exchange took place on Wednesday when a cameraman asked Cruz — who was giving remarks in front of his masked colleagues and a group of reporters who could not be seen on camera — if he wouldn't mind "putting on a mask for us."

    "Yea, when I'm talking to the TV camera, I'm not going to wear a mask," Cruz, 50, responded.

    "All of us have been immunized [against COVID-19]," he added, gesturing to his Republican colleagues.

    When the cameraman said, "It'd make us feel better," Cruz said the cameraman was "welcome to step away"...

    Mask on, mask off! That's what intellectual discussion has sadly come down to in the 21st century.

    Yes, we do seem to have fallen in our ability to have discourse. Wonder why...

    From the charts I've seen regarding states that require masks and those that don't, the states that require them are getting hit by the china virus harder. Plus masks really don't do anything; if you can smell a fart through two layers of clothing, then what good is a mask?

    Did you know that's it's OK to pee in a pool as long as you're wearing swimming trunks.

    No good at all. But it makes you part of herd which is what most people so much wish to be.

    All it shows is how ignorant Teddy Boy, is with no regard for the safety and health of others.

    Social distancing doesn't work with him? Why wasn't Joe Biden wearing a mask during his press conference. Why isn't Jen Psaki wearing a mask during her clown show briefings?

    You TDS was an issue, you were talking about the Capitol riots and at the conventions with golden states, yes? Many of the first group are in jail and hopefully more suffering from this most sad affliction join them soon.

    I know you wouldn’t be saying other posters “had TDS” as that be against forum rules...

    if you follow liberals, they have plenty of reasons why its' OK for Pelosi, Waters, both Cuomos, Stephanopolous, Whitmer, Biden, Psaki, and others not to wear a mask, but have the same amount of reasons why it's criminal when conservatives don't. Look at how they treated their riots vs spring breaks.

    Which person demands that we wear a mask and which one doesn't? Your post is not relevant.
