Paul, can 2 things be true and matter at the same time?

Should someone who wants to be governor of GA, obey the mask mandates in place in GA?

Abrams, very much in Trump-like fashion, attacked her critics on this. She couldn’t just say she made a mistake and she’ll try to do better. Nope. She went into a tirade against those who dared to question her.

Big deal if one time, somewhere, someone forgot to put on their mask or took it off too soon or if the person taking the photo used a telephoto lens and made it appear they are standing close to someone else.

We have evidence that Trump and his minions tried to steal an election yet you'll continue to post pictures about someone, somewhere w/o a mask on as if that is the most important thing in the news.

you’re right, if it was one person one time, who cares. but there’s a clear, obvious pattern of elected democrats violating the mandates they advocate for.

No big deal, character flaws is mine for expecting them to maybe lead by example.

I don’t disagree with you that trump tried to overturn the election.

again, i’m almost certain that two things can be true at the same time. Trump at least considered some very ugly things, and elected democrats are being regularly hypocritical with masks.

not sure why it’s one or the other.

Did you really, seriously, type that? You're saying that with a straight face.

OK, maybe Trump never said any of those boorish things we claim he said, maybe a very talented ventriloquist just made it seem like he said those things. I mean, since you're being silly, I figured I'd join in the fun...

Zoom lens? You don't exactly need the Hubble telescope to take pictures of Stacey Abrams.

Paul has jumped the shark.

I guess you know nothing about photography.

By the way representatives Jamaal Bowman of New York and Elissa Slotkin of Michigan also had pictures taken surrounded by masked school kids with their own masks off. Now you can start 2 more threads.
