Reuters: Trump says he expects to wear a mask when he visits military hospital

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump, who has avoided being seen wearing a face covering in public, said on Thursday he expects to wear a mask when he next visits U.S. troops at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center outside Washington.

“I expect to be wearing a mask when I go into Walter Reed. You’re in a hospital setting. I think it’s a very appropriate thing. I have no problem with a mask,” Trump told Fox News in an interview.

Trump said he would be visiting wounded soldiers as well as front-line workers seeking to contain the COVID-19 pandemic when he visits the government medical facility in Bethesda, Maryland.

Trump did not say when he would visit, and the White House did not immediately respond to a query about his schedule. CNN has previously reported Trump plans to go on Saturday.

WNU Editor: Walter Reed National Military Medical Center is a hospital. It is not open to a debate. Everyone has to wear a mask. The President obviously knows that.

  1. His reluctance to wear a mask and 'set an example' due to optics earlier was bad form.

    You gave him a pass on that WNU Editor. As you do with most things.

  3. Trump didn't wear a mask when he went to a mask factory earlier this year and also Pence didn't wear one either when he visited the Mayo clinic. Why bother to wear one now.

    Then again some folks have a more reliable crystal ball dealer than I and thus feel more secure Or they're young and dumb.
