Once again, POTUS takes the divisive approach that will only cause those apathetic towards the vaccine to dig their feet in even further. First off, POTUS doesn't have the authority to mandate mask wearing. That's under the purview of the governors. About all his administration can do is put in mandates in places under federal jurisdiction and even then, how easily can it be enforced? Threatening people and calling them stupid (as he's done in the recent past) isn't going to convince anyone to get vaccinated. His administration needs to lead by example. Instead he's done the exact opposite by telling vaccinated people they still have to follow the same restrictions as everyone else and showing up at conferences with fully vaccinated people with the same restrictions in place. These are not incentives to get people to go out and get the vaccine. For someone who talked about unity just a few months ago, he hasn't been any less divisive than Trump was.
