Twitter Rumor: Herman Cain Died This Morning

I've been watching his Twitter page, and there are some rumblings that he died this morning, and the news has yet to be made public. One appears to be from a Right Winger who has his own Pro-Repub/Drumpf Twitter account.

That said, I don't wish anyone the sad effects of COVID-19. But, he will have caused tremendous harm to others with his COVID-19 denial and emphasis on it being a "Democratic HOAX!" For that, he has a lot to make up for if he does survive.

Is Herman Cain alive? His twitter account pushes MAGA bs every 2 hours, but it’s obviously a staffer. The last health update was a week ago.

If he dies, would they cover it up because Trump killed him with a rally?

Wait for a legit news outlet to report it AND vote their source before passing on news like this.

tweeted four days ago, asking people to pray for Herman Cain because he's been in a GA hospital for three weeks with no announcement of release or update, and he hasn't been able to get further info.

I find that interesting.

Maybe they're trying to break it to the cult gradually like telling Timmy that Lassie just went to the vet for a few days rest.
