Pence Wears Mask At GM Plant After Backlash [VIDEO]

CNBC reports:

Vice President Mike Pence wore a mask during a visit to an Indiana facility making ventilators Thursday, two days after igniting a storm of criticism for failing to put on a mask for a tour of the renowned Mayo Clinic despite coronavirus restrictions there.

Pence was touring the General Motors plant in Kokomo, Indiana, with Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao and General Motors CEO Mary Barra.

Pence, who once served as governor of Indiana, has previously said that he does not need to wear a mask because he is tested regularly for coronavirus, and so far has been shown to be negative for it.
