I wish I could get one with the Presidential seal on it.
Ford plant today. He said he'd worn it in another area, I knew someone would get a pic.

Is it embarrassing for him to be seen with a mask on? Does he think people will think poorly of him for it, or something? I think we've all seen enough people with masks on, that it wouldn't make him look weird or something.

He wants to portray an image of strength and fearlessness

I can understand the concept of not wanting to cause a panic and calm down fears.
I cannot understand the anger and vitriol that people have when asked to wear one though.

means not wearing a mask. Wearing a mask has nothing to do with how strong a person is.

Bush insisted on addressing the nation from the WH instead of while cowering in some bunker somewhere after 9/11.
I'm not saying I agree with it - I'm just saying I think that's what it is...

There is a growing portion of his cult that are angered by having to wear masks at the market. He needs to pander to them.

not self-confident. It's a sign of weakness of character and one that I am sometimes guilty of myself. For some it may be simple vanity, for other perhaps it is a sense of inadequacy in some other area. But the fact that wearing a mask is incredibly simple and easy, and could potentially carry very real benefits for you and people you are exposed to throughout the day means that people who don't wear them are being kind of selfish ######## when they don't, myself included.

I have heard people say that, that the masks actually are in a way unhealthy. I probably don't agree, but I can respect that mindset, at least. But to not wear it out of some sense of pride or because of spite? That's not good.

Actually, there is nothing angry in my post, I was sort of making fun of him for getting caught wearing a mask.
You're clearly a rising junior in high school and I'd expect your reading comprehension to be a little higher.

It's too bad someone didn't gag TheRump from mid-February to May 1st. Probably would have saved up to 40,000 deaths if the US had been prepared. Early-on, TheRump and FoxFakeNews lied about the serious nature of C-19 to keep the stock market prices high. What a jerk. Obviously only cares about the rich people!

Trump for wearing a mask, when he said he did?
A little. Trump has made it plainly obvious to anyone, that he believes that opening up the country is a necessity for the prospect of his re-election. He has downplayed the Pandemic from the beginning because his strongest argument for reelection was the economy. All of the early reporting on the virus' spread emphasized not only the health risk but the certainty of economic impact on the whole world.
In keeping with his mindset, he's refused to be seen wearing a mask because he STILL wants to downplay the risks to get the economy going. So my post, is a little tease at him for getting caught wearing one. When recently interviewed he said he wasn't going to wear a mask in front of cameras because he didn't want to give the 'lame-stream media' the satisfaction of seeing him wear one.
On the Pandemic, if the U.S. were the only country to take such drastic measures as closing schools and imposing 'stay at home' orders on citizens, then I think an argument could be made for some sort of political motive or operation going on. The fact that evey country in the world has done it, confirms that this is a real Pandemic with real bad outcomes for a lot of innocent people.

"Trump has made it plainly obvious to anyone, that he believes that opening up the country is a necessity for the prospect of his re-election."
So you can categorically remove any desire Trump might have for America to start an economic recovery and help the people? You just somehow know that making americans financially healthy again isn't really what he wants to do?
