Despite wearing one for his most recent photo op, Donald Trump – like many of his followers – hasn’t been particularly keen on wearing a mask.

And he hasn’t been overly keen on postponing Republic conventions despite all the dangers of the coronavirus.

The Republican Party of – Google, Google – Wisconsin had its annual state convention over the weekend. And here’s Republican Glenn Grothman doing his bit for the cause.

It went viral because, well, have a watch for yourself.

We hope he is safe and well. Along with everyone else in the room.
