Showing Original Post only (View all)Trump doesn't give a rat's ass that he killed Herman Cain by holding his Tulsa Rally [View all]
https://www.rawstory.com/2020/07/trumps-feels-no-regrets-about-herman-cains-from-he-may-have-caught-at-tulsa-rally-nyts-haberman/Last month, former Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain attended President Donald Trumps rally in Tulsa without wearing a face mask then 40 days later, he died from COVID-19.
Trumps campaign held the rally in Tulsa in an indoor venue where it did not require face masks or social distancing but New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman says the president and his advisers have no regrets about how they held the rally.
During an interview, CNN host Alisyn Camerota wondered if there was any remorse about holding the rally in the middle of the pandemic against the advice of medical professionals.
Knowing that Herman Cain went to that Tulsa rally okay, the Tulsa rally that the medical experts in Tulsa did not want the president to hold because they knew it would be dangerous he went as a healthy, 74-year-old man, she said. He was not sick, he was not positive for coronavirus that day. Then a month later, he is dead. Is there any feeling inside the White House of responsibility, of guilt, of connection to this?
This is not how the White House is is handling it, Haberman replied. The White House continues to have a blinder view of all of this. They do not look at actions they have taken as having an impact on people getting sick, whether thats the Tulsa rally or a lack of sufficient testing across the country.
Supposedly Herman Cain was a friend, although Trump doesn't actually have friends in the true sense of the word. Certainly he was a strong Trump supporter. Did Trump express any regrets at all about Herman Cain's death. The morning after all Trump could talk about was delaying the "rigged election."

OP
Masks are rare in my area, even in businesses that "require" them. Maybe 30%.

Okay Trump did offer "prayers" to family of Herman Cain, who died of the "China Virus."

Yes Cain made his own choices. But the fact remains that Trump's choices are killing people.
