President Donald Trump falsely claimed at Tuesdays presidential debate that there has been no negative effect from the campaign rallies hes held for thousands of attendees amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
Weve had no negative effect. Weve had no negative effect, Trump said, adding a boast that weve had 35, 45,000 people at these rallies.
Herman Cain, a 2012 Republican presidential candidate and tea party activist, was diagnosed with COVID-19 less than two weeks after he attended Trumps June 29 rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Cain died on July 30 at age 74. Since Cains death, his family has continued to operate his Twitter account to praise Trump and spread falsehoods, even insisting that the coronavirus is not as deadly as the media says.
The Tulsa Health Department also recorded a surge in cases a little over two weeks after the event at the citys BOK Center which housed roughly 6,000 attendees despite Trump boasting a million people had registered to attend. A top health official said the event was likely the source of the spike.
This month, Trump hosted an indoor rally in Henderson, Nevada, breaking state laws and earning a sharp rebuke from the governor, who has banned gatherings of more than 50 people since May. Guests were seen without masks and not socially distancing at the event. His outdoor events have appeared to similarly flout public health guidelines.
Critics slammed the presidents careless remark as they pointed to the fate of his former ally.
