Trump doesn't give a rat's ass that he killed Herman Cain by holding his Tulsa Rally

Last month, former Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain attended President Donald Trump’s rally in Tulsa without wearing a face mask — then 40 days later, he died from COVID-19.

“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.

so he committed suicide.

He was not a brain surgeon. Perhaps you're thinking of Ben Carson?

from essential workers to trump cultists.

fairing better?

All the places I visit, masks are universal.

I will say that I see more masks within the last two weeks than before.

It involves the behavior of millions of people.

Those in trump's bubble will get sick, perhaps die, or learn.

Nobody is hiding the information from them, although turning of Fox News and RWNJ hate radio might help too.

That's one way to achieve herd immunity. And a better society. Shame it had to come to that.

What a guy!

God knows I would never defend the big orange piece of crap, but Cain was
a grown man. He also apparently was an anti masker (is that even a word?)
He choose to go to the Tulsa rally, no one forced him to go. He choose not
to wear a mask. I don't think he went to the Mount Rushmore rally but I
don't really know. I guess what I'm saying, it was his choice. You play the game, you take your chances.

sick with C-19 about 10-11 days after a Tulsa?

There is no contradiction between saying that Trump killed Herman Cain and that Herman Cain killed Herman Cain. They are both responsible. If Trump had not held his reckless rallies, Herman Cain would probably be still alive.

What she writes is true of Trump. He doesn't even allow himself to contemplate the possibility that he's the cause of harming others. But that's not true for people like Jared Kushner and Stephen Miller, and the others. They totally understand what they are doing.

Jared Kushner was even quoted months ago saying: "I don't care about any of that."

It's important to get the pathology right. Trump is surrounded by advisors who completely understand they are killing Americans, and they intend to do so.

Haberman is still giving the White House an exit ramp they don't deserve. It's like that ridiculous (mostly discredited) argument about Auschwitz, that killing the Jewish people was so compartmentalized that the people involved weren't actually aware they were participating in The Holocaust.

They have blinders on and can't see

Give me a break.

It's all about him.

It doesn't care how many of us it kills as a result of its virus.

He could have stayed home. He also chose not to cover his face. That being said, yes, Trump holds significant responsibility for the conditions that led to Cain's idiotic, self-destructive attitude. Just as he is responsible for all of the other selfish, stupid assholes who were, and still are running around, ignoring all the precautions that have been set in place by public health experts.
