Ok, first you claim with no proof that Biden is mandating vaccines to enrich himself, now he’s making money on mask mandates, too? Not even sure how that works- I guess he’s in the pockets of big mask? I’m sure this plays very well in certain circles, but the conversation should be focused on weighing the effectiveness and potential benefit of a policy against its total cost. This is a baseless red herring that makes little sense.

I dislike hypocrisy too, but it only condemns the guilty party, not the underlying principle. If I tell my kids not to drink & drive but I do it myself, it doesn’t mean drunk driving is a good idea, it only means I don’t practice what I preach.
If Gavin Newsom breaks his own COVID rules it means he should be held to account- it doesn’t mean the rules become invalid.
