Pro-Trump Activist Holds Up Entire Flight Because He Refused to Wear a Mask

David Harris Jr., a pro-Trump personality, recently held up an entire American Airlines flight – yes, not caring about the inconvenience to the other passengers, which is also a Trumper trait – over the issue of having to wear a mask.

And you’ll be shocked: He claimed victimhood:

“So because I declared that I have a medical reason to not wear a mask, people on the plane are tripping out and may not want to fly on this plane,” the pundit began in a 3-minute video posted to Instagram.

He had been pictured before with a mask on, and didn’t declare “which” medical reason prevented his flight, but a good guess might be a psychiatric condition in which he believes he has the right over everyone else and it doesn’t matter that he asserts himself as “special.”

The captain told him to get off the plane but he refused, citing his HIPPA rights. The airline’s rule mandates masks for all but small children and people with a medical condition. Apparently one doesn’t need proof of a condition, only an assertion. We could understand someone with asthma, or on oxygen, having an issue and having proof of such a condition, but a mere assertion?

Other passengers heckled him, with hostility. That is when he displayed another Trumper characteristic, taking pride in pissing “PC” people off:

I’m staying right here,” the pundit declared while laughing.

Well, he inconveniences and puts every other passenger at risk – then laughs about his badassness. How Trumpian. The airline then offered all other passengers a free chance to book another flight if they felt endangered, which isn’t a good answer for passengers as it would surely mean a later arrival and hassle with bags, etc.

Now every other entitled Trumper has a way around the rules on airplanes.
