What's this?

What a dumb false equivalency


The folks protesting should have been wearing masks just like the guy at lunch today at Burger King.
But None of them are the president of the United States who demanded a rally against almost every recommendation, and for his personal benefit, and likely ended up in the death of a supposed friend. So good try... actually if was a pathetic try.
