 So Donald Trump chose to hold a rally in Ohio. I don't know why he's holding rallies in the middle of a pandemic And there were hundreds of people in attendance This isn't a good idea only a few of them were wearing masks. I Think that these events could act as super spreader events. I mean, they are outdoors for the most part I know this one was but when you have people really close next to each other It's not a good idea. So if you want to get this pandemic under control not the best thing to do But I digress he held this rally anyway like it or not and the lieutenant governor of Ohio John Houston came out to speak and You know, probably seeing that they weren't wearing masks. He tried to persuade the crowd To wear masks by pandering to them now He brought up something that I brought up before, you know I have repeatedly talked about how it is a huge issue that Donald from supporters Republicans conservatives are Disproportionally less likely to wear masks, right? So I don't care what kind of masks they're wearing like if you put on a maga mask I don't care as long as you were covering your face because we have to get this pandemic under control I've said that and he actually proposed this he has the Trump 2020 mask on but he said look Here's the thing if you go into a grocery store where you have to wear a mask Why don't we put on one of these Trump masks? Well, it turns out I underestimated the stupidity of the maga crowd Because even a pro Trump mask to them is out of the question because when he made this recommendation They booed him and they booed him loudly. Take a look But if you go into a grocery store where you got to wear one, all right Hang on hang on just listen up Listen up All right, I get it But if something tells you to take it off you can at least say That you're trying to save the country by wearing one president Donald Trump's mask. All right All right Even the idea of wearing a pro Trump mask to them is out of the question These people are deranged. This is why COVID-19 cases are starting to climb once again And we were starting to see the numbers decrease from, you know, the peaks In July, but they're starting to go up again We're seeing what a 10-13% increase once again, and we have to get this under control by fall Or by winter so we're not seeing COVID-19 and the flu, you know overrun and overwhelm hospitals But they booed the idea of a pro Trump mask now if Trump was the one who said listen Let's wear these pro Trump masks. It's patriotic and we'll trigger the libs I think that the response would be different because again, I don't necessarily think they're following Donald Trump because of any policy reasons This is a cult of personality. So if daddy Trump says it anything that Donald Trump says by definition is good So I think that they would have accepted it if Trump said it but because another Republican tried to use What it would only be acceptable for daddy Trump. They did not go for it and they booed him These people are deranged and they are a threat to all of us now Trump took the stage after John Husted and he introduced the governor of Ohio Mike DeWine. Mike DeWine is a Trump sick of it. He has been loyal to Donald Trump but in spite of said loyalty he actually has been attempting to handle COVID-19 like a grota There is a statewide mask mandate So you can't be indoors with more than six people without a mask and on top of that He actually did have some pretty stringent requirements for the quarantine. So they don't like him because I'm assuming a lot of them think that COVID-19 is a hoax and they think that the mask mandate is like I Don't know violates their liberty or it's a muzzle or something like some of the dumb arguments that they've used But when Trump mentioned him They booed him I think we're joined today by a real good friend of mine somebody that's been with me from the beginning And I've been with him from the beginning Ohio governor Mike DeWine. Where's Mike? He's opening up Where's Mike? Thank you Mike. Thank you Mike He's a good man and Lieutenant Governor John Houston This is just depressing to see because even if The Republican Party is a minority party even if you know the Crowd of Trump diehards that are in the Magical is probably like 30 35 percent at most Well, that's still a sizable portion of the population. That's still a large enough chunk of the population To where it's going to make it really difficult for the rest of us to get it under control if that many people aren't taking it Seriously, I mean in that crowd only a few dozen people were wearing masks. Most of them were in close quarters Not wearing masks. I mean they were outdoors, but I mean if you're close enough to people Still kind of an issue kind of a risk a Big risk But I mean this is not surprising, you know, the GOP has pandered to these types of people They have cultivated this culture of anti-intellectualism and you know a rejection of empirical reality and facts and science and This is what happens. You know, they reject Whatever narrative is inconvenient to them and they come up with their own reasons as to why You know, they are right and everyone else is wrong. The science is wrong Now again, I still think that if Donald Trump made this recommendation to wear Trump masks the reception would be a little bit different But it shows you how out of control they are when Laurel Republicans speaking at a Trump rally Can't even make this suggestion to wear Trump masks Without getting booed down. I mean this it shows you how out of control and Reckless a sizable portion of a population is I mean again This isn't a majority of Americans But it's a big enough portion that makes the rest of us more vulnerable if we have that many people Refusing to do the minimal thing to keep this virus under control Then it's gonna be really difficult for us to get it under control period because we have that many fucking idiots Who have that big of an issue with wearing a mask? Nobody likes wearing masks. I hate wearing masks It makes my beard look like shit afterwards. It's uncomfortable, right? It's hot But I do it because this is what we have to do like if we all wore masks If a hundred percent of the population wore masks Imagine how fast would be able to get this under control to where we wouldn't have to wear them anymore We wouldn't have to lock down and do quarantine But because people like this are so stupid the rest of us have to suffer because of their fucking stupidity And this is exactly the type of people who the GOP is appealing to this is the culture of anti-intellectualism Pro-stupidity that Trump is trying to you know gin up in order to help himself win re-election It's not surprising, but it is still deeply depressing to see this Mike is a total loser.
