Trump to hold first post-coronavirus rally in Oklahoma

The Hill
BY MORGAN CHALFANT - 06/10/20 04:48 PM EDT

President Trump said Wednesday that he plans to hold his first campaign rally in over three months in Tulsa, Okla., next Friday.

Trump also said he planned to resume rallies in Florida, Arizona, and North Carolina, all of which are considered battleground states in the 2020 presidential election.

Trump identified states in which he plans to hold rallies on Wednesday afternoon during a roundtable discussion with African American administration officials and conservative media personalities.

It’s unclear what safety measures the campaign may implement in order to prevent the spread of COVID-19 at the large gatherings, which typically attract thousands of the president’s supporters.

North Carolina and Arizona are among states that have seen a spike in coronavirus cases and hospitalizations as governors across the country loosen restrictions meant to curb the spread of the virus so that businesses can reopen.

Nope. We can call these Covid Rallies from now on. I pity the Secret Service that have to jeopardize themselves protecting that POS.

I'm actually hoping they find a reason not to go. Like Jeff Goldblum's character in Jurassic Park, I hate being right all the time.

I don't think my few friends in Tulsa have any intention of going to this disease-riddled clusterfuck....but I'm contacting them this evening, just to make sure.

...fewer pro-Trump voters surviving until election day. Doesn't he realize he is risking decimating his own faithful followers?
