I have this urge. But,here’s how I address the maskless/improper mask wearing: make eye contact, draw some circles in the air around my mask with my pointer finger, then I flippantly say, “you know better, pull it up”
They *want* to be yelled at. Don’t give them what they want.
They want anger and confrontation. It’s why they are being provocative.
Light mockery is how you shame them.
They want to be important. They aren’t important. Be airily dismissive.
How they view themselves:
How to treat them: like they are this:

'Twas 5 days before Xmas, & all through the land
A virus ran rampant, mitigation poorly planned
The doctors & nurses were tired and stressed,
the masks on their faces, so tightly pressed.
Trumpers swarmed maskless, big box stores & malls,
blithely ignoring medics' 911 calls

But it was too late-their party was sacked.
The countdown had started, just one month to go
The luster of hope, a bright future aglow.
How much destruction can one small man wreak,
a wannabe tyrant, authoritarian freak?

Here's hoping this shitshow was only a blip.

I suppose it should not be a surprise that he hired someone who used threats of gun violence in a “election fraud” conspiracy bamboozle then?
Since you know, fishes rot from the head. Corporate culture is a top-down phenomenon.

Dirty dirty PR: 1) tries to make him look good 2) tries to make his victims look bad.
