Michigan AG: If Trump fails to wear mask on factory tour he'll be asked not to come back
Such dramatics! A reminder, dear state attorney general: you are not the boss of the president of the United States..
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Michigan's attorney general said President Donald Trump will be told not to come back if he refuses to wear a face mask when he tours a Ford Motor plant

  • 'Honestly, if he fails to wear a mask, he's going to be asked not to return to any enclosed facility inside our state,' Dana Nessel, a Democrat, told CNN

  • Michigan requires some type of face covering in public enclosed spaces

  • Nessel threatened to take legal action against Ford Motors if the president doesn't wear a face covering

  • It's unclear if President Trump will wear one


Trump dons mask during Ford factory tour, but not for TV cameras

[WashingtonTimes] 'I didn't want to give the press the pleasure of seeing it'

President Trump wore a mask while touring a Ford Motor Co. plant in Michigan Thursday, deliberately out of view of TV cameras.

“I didn’t want to give the press the pleasure of seeing it,” the president told reporters after his tour.

He pulled out of his pocket a Navy blue mask that appeared to have the presidential seal on it, showing it to reporters without putting it on again.

The Ford plant in Ypsilanti is building ventilators instead of cars and trucks, to help in the fight against the coronavirus crisis.

Ford confirmed in a statement that the president did wear a mask during his tour on the plant floor, as per company policy.

“[Chairman] Bill Ford encouraged President Trump to wear a mask when he arrived,” the company said. “He wore a mask during a private viewing of three Ford GTs from over the years. The president later removed the mask for the remainder of the visit.”

#1 The Ford plant in Ypsilanti is building ventilators instead of cars and trucks, to help in the fight against the coronavirus crisis.

Would these be the ventilators that we seem to have an unexpected surplus of?

And why is Michigan suddenly suffering from an outbreak of Bitchy Female Elected Officials?

#2 "Lays down the law" in a virtually lawless state to the unquestioned 'Leader of the Free World.' Nice, very nice.

Never registered for the draft? Haven't had the epiphany that you didn't own your own body? That one day you might be asked to give the 'last full measure of devotion' for all that power you throw around?

The law, the authority behind the law, and the power derived from the consent of the governed. You can claim any of it, but ultimately if you don't have the consent it means you're just screaming at the moon. Consent is not established by any ritual. Consent can be withdrawn at anytime when those you claim for your legitimacy decide its not a good day to die.

#7 Sorry, have to agree that no mask is bad in several wys: it gives fuel to the '2sets of rules' class, but more importantly, in other situations where unmasked folks entered a business there was a period devoted to deep cleaning the areas that person was in. What give DJT super no Covid coties powers? And how much down time followed to clean the place up?
IMHO, he stepped in it this time.

#8 Screw the bitch. And screw the masks. We should only wear them if we want to, and every show of defiance to this BS attitude of 'Do as I say or else!" is a good one. He didn't step in it, he rubbed their faces in their own nonsense, and more people should to the same.

He is taking hydroxychloroquine and zinc daily as a prophylactic. Also, he wore a mask inside the factory, but not outside for the press.

Separately, it isn’t just Bitchy Michigan Females, but Bitchy Maryland Males as well. And not even only Democratic politicians — Trump Derangement Syndrome is only majority-Democrat.

#14 Seems to me the Michigan AG is the perfect candidate for getting sent to a 'stan black site for some enhanced interrogation techniques of Demorat election fraud.
