Eric Schmitt: ‘This virtue signaling just has to end’

The Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt joins the Mark Reardon Show to discuss school mask mandates after some local schools bring masks back to the classroom.

“These people are never going to let this stuff go. It’s like they have learned nothing!” Schmitt exclaimed while discussing a local middle school that reinstated their mask mandate this week. “[Masks] cause a lot of long term problems. And this virtue signaling just has to end,” he continued.

“Fauci actually admitted, saying the quiet part out loud, that one of the reasons you do lockdowns is to get people vaccinated, think about that! They use the power of the government there to compel people because they would be so upset, and the only way they’ll get out of this is to go do what the government tells them to do,” Schmitt said later.
