Has anyone noticed the decrease in mask usage?

I think that if Trump had endorsed wearing a mask the picture would be completely different.  Those who currently wear masks do so because they believe in medical science - they wouldn't stop wearing masks to make the dumpster fire look bad.  Trump's endorsement would mean that the Trumpanzees would wear a mask because that's the Murican thing to do.

He could have made one tiny step in the right direction and altered the whole course of this virus.

Dumbass could have offered MAGA masks and his whole following would have stocked up with enough masks to cover their entire bodies.

And yet because he's got this bizarre obsession with winners and losers, an even more bizarre belief connecting germs with negativity, and a sense of Social Darwinism that's probably the only consistent part of his ideology outside of racism, we get what we got.

The good news is, the virus is most likely to kill people who have other health issues and/or the elderly.  Trump is 74 years old and obese.  I'm forced to wonder how his Trumpanzees will react when he chokes to death on a respirator after covid turns his lungs into swiss cheese.  Under normal circumstances, I wouldn't want anyone to have to die like that, but if that's the wake up call we need to get people to start taking it seriously, I'll welcome it.
