Up next on the hypocrisy hit-parade, Lousiana Gov. John Bel Edwards who confirmed the authenticity of this photo of him socializing maskless at a country club from mid-November:
Today, Governor John Bel Edwards (D-LA) confirmed the authenticity of a photograph taken of him socializing maskless and in close contact with others at the Baton Rouge Country Club in mid-November just before enacting stricter COVID-19 lockdowns for the state. pic.twitter.com/HFo1Z4wl6j
Edwards refuses to apologize, saying he was only briefly maskless while engaging with others not at his table. His deputy spox says he does not violate “his own orders,” but some Louisianans don’t agree. https://t.co/Qt31Cfd0zZ
“There was absolutely nothing I did that day that violated the rules that were in place,” the governor said when asked about the photo during the news conference Wednesday.
“Had that photo been taken ten seconds later, you would have seen me with a mask on,” the governor said. “I don’t think we ask anyone to eat at a table with a mask on.”
