It also emerged Monday that Trump’s national security adviser Robert O’Brien, who works in the President’s mask-free West Wing, tested positive for the coronavirus, in a sign of how flaunting basic precautions leaves no one safe from infection even if such steps are politically unpalatable.
[Bold mine.]
That would be flout. Flauting basic precautions would be hubristic. Overly dramatic. Chewing the scenery, even. Nom Nom Nom.
