Joe Scarborough Rips Donald Trump With Rewrite Of His Rally Coronavirus Waiver

MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough spelled out the possible consequence of attending Donald Trump’s campaign rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma, amid the coronavirus pandemic next week by rewriting a liability waiver for fans wanting tickets.

The real legal disclaimer on the president’s 2020 campaign website warns people they can’t sue if they catch the contagion at the indoor event, planned for June 19 at the 19,000-capacity BOK Center.

It reads:

“By clicking register below, you are acknowledging that an inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 exists in any public place where people are present. By attending the Rally, you and any guests voluntarily assume all risks related to exposure to COVID-19 and agree not to hold Donald J. Trump for President, Inc.; BOK Center; ASM Global; or any of their affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, contractors, or volunteers liable for any illness or injury.”

The coronavirus has killed more than 116,000 people nationwide, and at least 14 states are experiencing a surge of new cases following the easing of restrictions.

And play the Russian Roulette game.

You can spin it all you want, but you have to point it at your head and click it you want to keep it. Would the odds be more or less than catching the corona virus? What do you have to lose?

You assume all risk of fatal injury from using the revolver.

Most likely they will say he had to do that to satisfy the deep state.

I'd probably have to ask, "So why is Donaldus Maximus knuckling under to the deep state? Makes him look weak, putting that disclaimer on the website."
