Trump's a diva afraid to muss its makeup.

A total covidiot... The Lone Ranger wore a mask over his eyes, with eyeholes.
someone needs to tell him he’s wearing it incorrectly.

In the binary world the alt right seem to understand best, the choice is to believe the reports from American sources, or believe what Trump, Russia and the Taliban say.
egads man!
Wait...The Lone Ranger? by wearing a mask?
Is he wearing it over his eyes or something??

Lone Ranger? More like a bandit, methinks. As the LR rode off into the sunset people always used to ask "Who was that masked man?", but no mask could ever hide the identity of Trump's unique trademark profile, not even if he were to appear as "the man in the iron mask". It's completely in character that Trump with his little finger in the political wind, after dissing masks for so long, is now blithely making a volte-face by touting masks as "politically correct" if by wearing one he can make Americans believe he is exercising "leadership" and at long last taking a decisive step to stop the virus in its tracks and, shh! (to save his presidency).

Donald just laid an egg.
'a wonderful egg, you know, many have told me it's my beautiful egg. A perfect round egg.'
Do you mean oval, Donald?
'No, I mean round as it is smooth and shaped like an egg. You're being the fake news, again, very rude. I'm going to take my Lone Ranger mask, and my egg, and put them on my face. I sort of like the way it looks. OK. I think it looks OK'

Really Mr President? Then why did you re-tweet this last week?
*President Donald Trump shared a tweet on Thursday that argued the mandated use of face masks to control the spread of the coronavirus represents a *"culture of silence, slavery, and social death."
*The argument against masks was made by a right-wing columnist in The Federalist, a conservative online publication, and claimed that mandating the safety measure was "anti-American" and signaled "indefinite government expansion."*

Hmmmm.... So last week you thought it was "Un-American", but now you think masks are "good"?
Trump supporters, care to explain that?

Another embarrassing climb down from the moron.
His followers will just have to get down on their knees once more and take it....
Madverts
...again.
Heh

Now he says he is all for masks. Revisionist history anyone? Soon he'll be saying he never downplayed how bad Covid would be. I would much rather see him in a fictitious role than the fictitious role he's been playing for the last 3 and 1/2 years.

You don't need eyeholes when you're omniscient.

Just one more example that Trump is far into dementia - he can't even understand that the Lone Ranger's mask goes around the eyes, and a virus mask goes around the mouth and nose...
Well, he did say Colorado was on our southern border...
Whether it's a face or a state, Trump clearly has "cognitive issues"....
Trump and his jammies: I have a blue and red costume with a big "S" across the chest....
I'm Batman...

Muy tonto, Kemo Sah-bee!

Nice joke, mr.President!

Sign of the times that someone could think about writing a story about this, then write it, and It is actually picked up by click-bait companies that use news to make profits.

Here's a great photoshop of Pence and some other guy wearing the popular light blue surgical masks and Trump wearing the Lone Ranger mask. Tee hee!

Trump's got the media hanging on his every word. That's a sign of a winner in my book.

Never mind mask, trump needs to come clean about the Russian bounty on U.S. soldiers.
Fake news from the NYT. Notice they don't reveal their source.
