Keisha Lance Bottoms Baffled By Masks Becoming a Political Symbol

Keisha Lance Bottoms believes the majority of Americans know the man in charge is “not very smart” … and she’s urging everyone to use common sense and good judgment to get through this pandemic safely instead of following his political lead … especially over masks.

The Mayor of Atlanta joined “TMZ Live” to talk about the politicization of COVID — which is just crazy — and the alarming images in her fair city, showing hundreds of people partying in close quarters without masks.

Bottoms says the silent majority has been responsible, and it would be a tragedy for a relatively small group to trigger a resurgence of the virus.

The problem, of course … some people — probably many — are taking their cues from President Trump, who is clearly using masks as a moniker for his re-election campaign … defying doctors and scientists and instead relying on untrained, gut instinct on what drugs to take and how to stay safe. Mayor Bottoms couldn’t make sense of it … because it doesn’t make sense.
