Pence: 'I should have worn a mask at the Mayo Clinic'

Pence: 'I should have worn a mask at the Mayo Clinic'

Vice President Mike Pence now says he should have worn a mask during his visit to Mayo Clinic last week.

Pence chose not to wear a face mask during a tour of the facility in Rochester, Minnesota, an apparent violation of the world-renowned medical center’s policy requiring them.

During a Fox News town hall Sunday, Pence said, "I didn't think it was necessary, but I should have worn a mask at the Mayo Clinic."

Pence said he and the president typically don't wear masks, as they've both tested negative for COVID-19.

Yes, you should have worn one instead of being an arrogant asshole. Also your wife should apologize for lying about you not knowing the protocol.

He did not wear the mask because he did not want Trump to ridicule him. He didn't want to appear "weak" to Trump and the idiots who follow them by being safe and respectful to others.

He knows he should have followed the guidelines. Now, he will likely get ridiculed for saying that he messed up.

Instead, we got a week's worth of snivelling excuses, outright lies, and clap-back from administrative dimwits who knew Pence had done something stupid and wrong, but didn't dare admit it for fear of the chief dimwit.

"look them in the eyes" but because he arrogantly thought since he was ok, he did not have to.
