“Unfortunately, this simple, lifesaving practice has become part of a political debate that says: If you’re for Trump, you don’t wear a mask. If you’re against Trump, you do.”
—Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn), on how the decision to wear or not wear a mask has become a political statement on the opposition or support of Trump.
There you have it, folks. In addition to being a smart move in protecting yourself and others around you from COVID-19, it’s now officially a political statement that you can make by ordering your own personal NOPE mask and tee-shirts.
We’re seeing more and more news stories going up where masks are going to be or are already required. The mayor of Baton Rouge has made masks mandatory. Texas and California are headed that way or have already taken action to require masks. Florida, Arizona and California are three other states as coronavirus spikes throughout the U.S. despite Trump’s insistence that it’s under control. The simple truth is, it’s not.
So, as long as you’re going to be required to wear a mask, it may as well be one that tells others who you are and what you stand for—or against.
And you may as well go a step further and accessorize with a fashionable T-shirt that echoes that message to Trump: “NOPE” in 2020. It’s a great response to those lying MAGA caps. I mean, after all, has Trump really made anything great again? (Well, maybe profits at Mar-a-Lago, thanks to the generosity of American taxpayers.)
And that tax break you got with his tax reform package? Only temporary, my friends, before it goes back up in a couple of years. Meanwhile, Trump and congressional Republicans (including Sens. Cassidy and Kennedy) made sure that the even more generous tax breaks for corporations were not temporary, but permanent. Thaaat’s right, permanent while yours is only temporary. How’s that for making America great again? And now we have Putin paying a bounty on Americans killed by the Taliban—and Trump was oblivious to it, saying he was never briefed. But NSA officials insist it was in his daily briefings no later than March of this year and possibly as early as the spring of 2019. MAGA my ass.
Order those T-shirts and masks now. Stop what you’re doing and click in that yellow (like Trump’s wig) DONATE button in the column to the right. It looks like this: (But don’t click on this icon, it doesn’t work. Go to the column on the right and scroll up (or down) and click on that one.) That will take you to a link where you can enter your credit card information via PayPal.
BE SURE TO INCLUDE YOUR T-SHIRT SIZE AND YOUR MAILING ADDRESS!
If you have problems with the yellow DONATE button or don’t want to pay by card, you can send a check for the correct amount to:
LouisianaVoice, P.O. Box 922, Denham Springs, LA. 70727.
One thing I’ve been forgetting to mention since this campaign started: LouisianaVoice is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, so your purchases are tax-deductible—so long as you pay by card or make checks payable to LouisianaVoice.
The prices for the masks are as follows:
1 Mask: $9.00
3 Masks: $24.00
5 Masks: $36.00
10 Masks: $66.00
20 Masks: $120.00
The shirts are $18.99 for sizes Small, Medium, Large and XL. 2XLs are $21.99 and 3XL are $23.99.
That’s less than what you’ll pay for equivalent shirts elsewhere.
Here’s a photo or our runway model as he sports this voguish T-shirt (sorry, he refused to wear his mask as an expression of personal freedom.):
A note from your t-shirt model: “I always wear a mask when engaged in commerce outside my home. This photograph was taken by my wife in our home. Thanks, and thanks for your support of LouisianaVoice.”
