    It's anti-intellectualism to immediately smear a source rather than addressing the context of the article.

    Splitting hairs isn't a defense.
    Thanks for admitting I was right.
    It wasn't ad hom.
    You misused the term.

    Therefore the statement that Don made about 85% of all people who wear masks get coronavirus is FALSE.

    It must be tiring for you to defend the indefensible.
    I think you are full of $#@!. Nobody said 85% of people who wore masks got COVID. That doesn't make sense.

    I used the term loosely but I didn't misuse it.

    Your attempt to deflect is noted, now try addressing the context of the post.

    LOL, good one. These leftist losers never address anything, other than issued talking points. Most have no idea what they are talking about, they are merely following marching orders.

    No, you are full of $#@! and don't want to hear the truth.
    TRUMP: “Just the other day they came out with a statement that 85% of the people that wear masks catch it so ... that’s what I heard and that’s what I saw.” — town-hall event in Miami.
    TRUMP, on his rallies: “What I do is outside is a big thing. And if you look at those, people, they really are wearing masks. I’ll tell you, I looked last night in Iowa — there were many, many people wearing masks. But then you see CDC comes out with a statement that 85% of the people wearing masks catch it.” — Fox Business interview.
    TRUMP, looking out over his crowd: “Look at all the masks. You know, they keep saying, ‘nobody wears a mask, wear the mask.’ Although then they come out with things today. Did you see CDC? That 85% of the people wearing a mask catch it, OK?” — remarks at rally during the day in Greenville, North Carolina.

    You misused it.
    You copped out by making the claim in the first place.
    I've contributed to this thread with facts regarding Don's misrepresentation of masks.
    Defending his comment and/or repeating it shows how gullible some folks are.

    Your turn.

    This is an example of ad hom.
    This person doesn't know me and rather than say anything with regards to this thread, makes false assumptions and statements about me.
    And absolutely nothing with regards to the thread.

    Yes, the truth that you made false assumptions and statements about me must hurt you a lot.

    I think you are wrong, what I’ve been seeing in countless news videos, and media reporting photographs the wearing of face masks isn’t being worn correctly, time and time again I’ve seen masks below the nose, or people pulling down their masks completely to talk. Highly inefficient to combat a virus that is raging among the population.
