AOC Accidentally Exposes Bernie Sanders As a Mask Fraud on Twitter

During Tuesday’s State of the Union address, Independent Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont donned a mask, but it was later exposed as a mere theatrical stunt.

Out of all the lawmakers present, the 81-year-old socialist was the only one who covered his face, as reported by Bruce Y. Lee of Forbes, who commended Sanders for wearing a KN-95 mask amidst the cheerful and smirking lawmakers.

Lee wrote: “Wearing a good quality face mask as Sanders did protected not only him but also anyone else he might have interacted with during and after the State of the Union address, and that’s going to be especially important if Sanders interacted with anyone at higher risk for more severe Covid-19.”

Sanders’ true intentions behind wearing a mask were accidentally exposed by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, who posted a photo of the two of them huddled together with several other lawmakers, revealing that Sanders had his mask around his chin.

Sanders faced significant backlash for his mask stunt. It was clear that Sanders was not wearing the mask with the intent of protecting himself or others or pursuing a worthwhile cause.
