    If I live in California I realize that he is being an idiot and continue to live as I was before (i.e. mask wearing, social distancing, hand washing, avoiding large indoor gatherings). I'm definitely not going to follow his example.

    so, you think it is ok to virtually ignore what newsome did?again, when trump had maskless people in a rose garden ceremony, all hell broke loose from the media, this, nothing?people are going to see through the media and bidens hypocracy on things like this, this is how to start your term,ignoring things you campaigned against?

    not only did newsome break all his mandates, he flat out lied about doing so, man if any republican had done that, well we all know what would happen. again, laying the groundwork to replace hair salon nancy.

    People freaked about the Rose Garden event because people (probably) got sick from it. It was huge news. If people that attended Newsome's event start getting sick left and right then there absolutely should be media backlash.

    Two wrongs don’t make either right.

    Many wrongs does make an administration.

    but did trump lie about the rose garden incident, no, but newsome lied about everything, yet he expects people to abide by his decrees, would you?

    i am sure those if impossed in portland and seattle will be obeyed by all the leftist radicals looting and destroying, they are, after all, law abiding citizens just mis-understood.

    No, those people protesting don’t transmit Covid. I know this because CNN told me so.

    I can confidently say Trump lied. Whatever it is, he lied. It's what he does.

    I already said Newsom is a hypocrite and deserves criticism. The Rose Garden event was some next level stupid. If people get sick from Newsom's event the I'll grab a pitchfork and e-march with you.

    Newsom is a governor. This is a national story for about a day.

    If it makes you feel better Newsom is getting pilloried in California, as he should be. He showed incredibly bad judgment.

    Yes newsome is being hypocritical. But Trumps event in the rose garden event was much worse. It was televised and promoted as a big event for all to watch. Thereby setting an example for the country by his actions. Which was disregard taking precautions.

    They take one dumb move by a dem governor and wear it out, but ignore the baby in chief's crammed rallies, Rose Garden events, and his aversion to wearing a mask, as a good thing. The hypocrisy of the tea party is astounding.
