CORONAVIRUS/JOE BIDEN: “Trump always made fun of me, I’m always wearing this mask. But let me tell you something, it matters. It’s not about saving my life, it’s about saving your life [from coronavirus]. When I have this mask on I have the heavy one underneath it. When I have this mask on, it’s less about me being safe, it’s about me making sure that you are safe. It’s a patriotic thing to do, it really is.
I hear all this about, ‘Well, it’s a great sacrifice of my freedom.’ Well tell that to all the people who went to WWI and gave their lives, and WWII, and the Korean War, and tell— I mean, come on. You’re helping other people. It’s not you. It’s other people. Other people. And so I think we have to change the mindset here a little bit. It’s got to be about giving.”
