  Not to be a nit-picky old bastard, but for the love of God, seeing those in attendance wearing the mask of submission is disgusting enough. To see the color guard in face diapers is disgusting, insulting beyond words.

    You have read my mind.

      I note that the ceremony took place in the last days of Trump.

      Again I grant them a pass.

        You are right, of course. I doubt the masking was “offered as a helpful suggestion”.
        The shame lies at the feet of those who gave the order.

  @ jwm

  I couldn’t agree with your observation more than I do. Absolutely sickening display of cowardice/stupidity.

  Not to put too fine a point on it but I believe that the color guard is required to obey orders regarding the uniform of the day.

  It’s a no win for those who participate at the White House.

  Either…
  accept the ratio and drag from those who hate the masks. (I count myself among the hate but it doesn’t extend to the workers and the members of the service who have NO CHOICE in the matter.)

  or…

  Have the meaning of the moment of silence lost in the peals of hate from the haters of America among the media and the vile co-citizens of this nation.

  Looking at that:

  I hearby and through the powers vested in me issue an American Digest Pardon for wearing the masks.

  I looked twice, I only saw a mask on the sgt at arms, of the uniformed troops.
  But yeah, masks blow.
