[Trump’s tweet]

We are United in our effort to defeat the Invisible China Virus, and many people say that it is Patriotic to wear a face mask when you can’t socially distance. There is nobody more Patriotic than me, your favorite President!

But never fear, chances are that he is doing a ‘do what I say, not what I do’ move; still, it is a signal for conservative or weird local governments and businesses to follow.
