President Donald Trump drew criticism this week when he declined to wear a face mask while touring a Honeywell plant in Arizona that is manufacturing medical equipment to handle the COVID-19 pandemic.

But even though footage from Trump’s tour of the plant clearly showed that he at no time wore a face mask, the president tried to claim he did when asked about it on Wednesday.

Reuters White House correspondent Jeff Mason questioned Trump about his decision to not wear a mask at the plant, and the president insisted that he wore one when no one was looking.

“I asked ⁦Donald Trump why he didn’t wear a mask at the Honeywell plant yesterday,” Mason writes on Twitter. “He said he had worn one. I said we did not see him wearing one. He said he wore one backstage and the Honeywell chief said it was not necessary to wear in the plant.”

"Do you believe me or your lying eyes?" His cult will believe him. This is getting scarier by the day.

On edit: I also didn't realize that there were "backstages" in factories.

2. Maybe they can't find one big enough for his fat head and big mouth.

3. "On edit: I also didn't realize that there were "backstages" in factories."

For Trump everything is about showbiz so anything not speaking to the cameras is "backstage". He is ridiculous. He doesn't want to wear a mask because that would mean he is admitting that situations are not safe, and it also implies weakness to do so.

Idiot.

6. +1000

It's all one big reality show to him. Backstage!

21. Nice Catch!

I'm sure it was a meeting room.
You know, the rooms where PINO takes a nap!
During the meeting!

22. He was probably looking for the girl's dressing room...

Stupid, sick bastard!

4. Sounds like a fake mask to me!

5. And you know what, his cult will believe him and not the facts (video) . . .

7. I wish I had $1000 or so to offer anyone who produced a photo

of His Lardship wearing a mask. Maybe I should make the offer anyhow, since I don't think I'd have to pay up.

25. Sounds like a GoFundMe to me. I'll throw in twenty.

Of course it’s a waste. I firmly believe they control everything involving him very tightly, Moreso because they can’t control him. NDAs are the tip of quite an iceberg.

8. toes to the top of his head is full of shit.

9. He's such a liar that his swear in oath as president is suspect.

10. In MagicLand photo and video don't count.

[winstars]

11. "He said he wore one backstage" IS THE WHOLE WORLD A FUCKING STAGE TO THIS FUCK?

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

16. Yes. "Backstage" is wherever he's not on TV or otherwise in public.

It's all a game show to him.

[yonder]

12. "backstage" really tips tRumps hand

It's not the presidency and all that comes with it. For him, it is the show, the performance, cameras, stagehands and reviews. that is what matters

[Chainfire]

13. Trump is incapable

of distinguishing the truth from a lie. Truth to Trump is what is convenient in the moment.

[irisblue]

14. It'll smear his bronzer too. He lies as easily as most humans breath.

15. Was he wearing a "Trump" mask? It looked way too big for him. nt

[lagomorph777]

19. And all pockmarked and beat up - from the bottom of the closet.

[doc03]

17. Maybe that orange thing he calls a face is

a mask.

[lagomorph777]

18. He wore an Orange Swamp Creature mask - but it happens to look exactly like his real face.

[Peregrine Took]

20. LOL - always some poor stooge around for him to blame when he messes up.

Like a big ole circus elephant with the little monkey following behind him with a broom.

23. Seems perfectly clear to me..

the video footage is faked, and the witnesses are lying.

Case closed.

[Totally Tunsie]
