Dan Crenshaw torches maskless celebrities at Super Bowl: 'Absolutely ridiculous'
Celebrities ditch masks at Super Bowl but kids in local schools must keep them on
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Rep. Dan Crenshaw, R-Texas, said on Monday that Hollywood stars and Democrats being spotted without masks at the Super Bowl shows they only like to virtue signal about the coronavirus pandemic.
"I think this is just increasingly frustrating for Americans as this ‘rules for thee, but not for me’ nonsense occurs. Eric Garcetti said he was just holding his breath. I’m sure all these celebrities were holding their breath the entire time," Crenshaw told "Fox & Friends."
Crenshaw said that the only virtue they have is the kind they can signal.

They will continue to do it and not note the hypocrisy that they are engaging in," he said, adding the left sees itself as the elites who can tell Americans what to do.
