Trump repeatedly undercut the CDC’s recommendation on Friday, saying he wouldn’t be wearing one because “I’m feeling good.”
“I just don’t want to be doing that. I don’t know. Somehow sitting in the Oval Office behind that beautiful Resolute Desk, great Resolute Desk, I think and wearing a face mask as I greet presidents, prime ministers, dictators, kings, queens. I don’t see it for myself.”
He is not greeting any kings, queens, or dictators right now. Nobody is traveling to see him at the moment.
He just doesn’t want to disturb his hair and make-up.
