Stop blaming President Trump and the Tulsa Rally because we were tested before the Rally and After t

Two things: Cain not obviously infected before the rally, and team drumpf not understanding that testing after a few hours is pointless.

STOP POINTING FINGERS!!!

I was with Herman Cain at the Trump Rally in Tulsa Oklahoma.

Stop blaming President Trump and the Tulsa Rally because we were tested before the Rally and After the Rally! After means the same day!

@realDonaldTrump and his campaign put our safety first!

in any responsible manner, Cain would have followed protocols and taken precautions. The behavior of Trump is what has led to so many people denying and dying.
Trump is directly responsible for tens of thousands of preventable deaths.

The responses to his tweet covered everything I had to say quite adequately.

can I talk to my college professors & high school teachers about this? Maybe I should ask some clients of my company if they wanted 90% accurate data & reports on that data?

Is he talking about taking temperatures? Totally useless. NOBODY GOT INSTANT COVID TESTS -- except perhaps Trump and the Trump inner circle. What kind of lunacy is this?
Cain tested positive 8 days after the rally. Connect the dots!

With covid testing, there are also some false negatives, with people who have symptoms already still testing negative. But the test certainly is not going to turn positive the very second that individual got infected.

I guess they don't understand what 2-14 day incubation period means.
Nobody is going to tested positive a second after getting infected.

On the other hand, probably shows he didn’t have a false negative (and probably caught it at the rally)

having road trips down the Aorta Expressway, taking vacations by the vast Bladder Lake, watching the enormous boulders travel down the Large Intestine, and having lots of corona-sex.

Lots of it. They're begatting their little brains out.

"Should we let him know we're here, yet?"
"Naw, let's wait a few more days. It's more fun that way."
