Trump has yet to wear a mask on camera, even as public health officials in his task force encourage Americans to do so when physical distancing is not possible.
Nessel joined other Democrats in criticizing Trump for what they consider failing to set an example. Vice President Pence was criticized earlier this month for not wearing a mask inside the Mayo Clinic campus in Minnesota.
Before his visit, Nessel urged Trump to wear a face covering, saying it's required of Michigan residents by order of Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D).
“He is portraying the worst possible message to those who can’t afford to be on the receiving end,” Nessel said. “It’s very, very concerning.”
"I think the message he's sending is the same message he sent when he took office in 2017, which is, 'I don't care about you, I don't care about your health, I don't care about your welfare, I don't care about anyone but myself,'" she added.
