Jonathan Capehart:
I pray that we do, William, but the politicization of this vaccine, of this pandemic, of mask-wearing is probably one of the biggest shames of a shameful presidency, that you had President — you had then-President Donald Trump, who made it almost a symbol of manhood by not wearing a mask, and thereby convincing a lot of people that it was a hoax, that this was a hoax.
Even when he got it himself, even getting the vaccine himself, not taking the extra step out there to say, get the vaccine, save your — save your life, protect your family, protect your community, and he didn’t do that. And now we have gotten to a point — excuse me — where this pandemic is now a pandemic of the unvaccinated, and that you have states in our country that are — you have Republican governors who are actively putting people’s health at risk, putting the public health at risk.
