Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) dropped by Fox News to discuss the recent developments on COVID mandates being lifted across the country. Paul says “we’re at a turning point.”
“You know, I think it’s no longer a right-left issue,” tells Fox News. “There may have been more of us on the right not liking the government mandates, but I think now you’re finding parents of children, whether they’re left of center, in the center, independents who really don’t like the idea of just forcing children to wear masks when the science doesn’t really indicate that the masks are working.”
“Even the CDC admits the cloth masks aren’t working,” Paul added. “You see kids outside huddled in the cold, eating their sandwiches. You see kids playing outside in masks.”
“So I think it is bringing right and left together.” the senator said. “I think in the end, the Democrats have really overplayed their hand on the mandates, because they’re going to lose their populous, they’re going to lose their public.”
“This is a turning point,” stated Paul. “I think it’s really getting to the point where the science is clear that the bulk and the vast majority of the masks people are wearing have no difference, make no difference, in the trajectory of the virus.”
