https://www.rawstory.com/2020/07/trump-loving-gop-candidate-running-in-john-lewiss-district-suggests-foul-play-in-herman-cains/Angela Stanton-King, a former reality TV star and current Republican congressional candidate running in the late Rep. John Lewiss district, posted a conspiratorial tweet on Thursday suggesting foul play in the death of Herman Cain, who earlier in the day passed away from COVID-19.
All the celebrities and Democrats catch COVID and magically heal, Stanton-King wrote on Twitter. But Herman Cain is dead! I swear I hate it here. I was right there with him. We were perfectly fine!!! This is WAR!!!
Stanton-King went on to say that it was unlikely that Cain caught COVID-19 at President Donald Trumps rally despite the fact that it was held indoors and Cain was not wearing a mask during the event because white people supposedly dont spread the disease as much.
Since COVID-19 disproportionately impacts Black people can someone explain to me how Herman Cain caught it around a bunch of white people, she wrote. And why none of the Democrats at George Floyds funeral caught it with thousands of black ppl and a dead body that was Covid positive?
Even though data show that Black Americans have been far more likely to die from the disease, there is no scientific evidence that white people are less likely to catch the disease and pass it on to others.
You can't fix stupid. Basically she is saying that COVID is biased against Republicans? Well yes, if Republicans don't wear masks and they depend on hydroxychloroquine once they get sick.

...former reality show star and convicted felon Angela Stanton-King announced Friday that she will run for Congress as a Republican against longtime Georgia Democratic U.S. Rep. John Lewis.
Stanton-King was recently pardoned by President Donald Trump after her 2004 conviction on federal conspiracy charges for her role in a car theft ring. She spent more than two years in prison.
Last week, Stanton-King found herself in the Oval Office, praying over Trump. It was fitting that she was there with a handful of Trumps black supporters, whom he is trying to build into a coalition of support leading up to the November election.
