Rally at your own risk: Trump campaign's coronavirus disclaimer to supporters

President Donald Trump is set to resume his campaign rallies next week — but attendees have to agree not to hold his campaign liable if they get the coronavirus in the 19,000-seat arena.
An invitation for the June 19 event in Tulsa, Oklahoma asks people to register online for the event —and waive their rights to sue if they get sick.
"By clicking register below, you are acknowledging that an inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 exists in any public place where people are present. By attending the Rally, you and any guests voluntarily assume all risks related to exposure to COVID-19 and agree not to hold Donald J. Trump for President, Inc.," the rally site or organizers "liable for any illness or injury," the form says.
The rally is being held in the Bank of Oklahoma Center and comes as the city is in phase three of reopening from the coronavirus pandemic.
"Under Phase 3, businesses may resume unrestricted staffing at their worksites by observing proper CDC-recommended social distancing protocols and are recommended to continue increased cleaning and disinfecting practices," Gov. Kevin Stitt's office said in a May 29th statement.
A Trump campaign official said there would be health precautions in place at the event but did not elaborate. White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany told reporters on Wednesday she didn't have specific information but said "we will ensure that everyone who goes is safe."
Stitt, a Republican, has hailed the Trump event. "The President is making Oklahoma his first campaign stop since March 2, and his visit here confirms Oklahoma is the national example in responsibly and safely reopening," he said Wednesday.
The event had already been controversial because of the site and the date. Tulsa is the site of the Greenwood massacre , where a white mob killed an estimated 300 black people and torched the neighborhood's "Black Wall Street" in 1921, and the 19th is also known as Juneteenth , a holiday that marks the end of slavery in the United States.
What..... Trump believes in science when his money is on the line...?
I think a second offer should be issued for this Trump rally and those to follow:
"For just $19.95 plus shipping Trump will send you the specially designed MAGA hat that can be worn while intubated."
meh, I have no problem with those maga fucktards infecting each other, it's the innocent victims of maga morons I'm concerned about.

Yes I'm warning them to avoid liberal Colorado. They want gatherings of up to 250 people with only twenty feet separating the groups of up to 250 around here.
it's a majority of fascists and neo-cons that live up there, the liberals in eagle county work in conservative-hypocrite owned weed dispensaries or are seasonal workers...
Yes it's a blue county.
So what you are saying is that liberals don't open their own businesses there, are content to hypocritically work for the very people they despise, and are part time workers.
Got it.

But will Trump and the Republican National Committee listen to you? Are they smart enough to take your advice?

In spite of left wing attempts to convince the gullible of a "second wave", the common sense recommendations of proper social spacing and mask use should provide adequate protection from contracting the virus, which appears to have weakened somewhat.
I'm sure Biden will do likewise...it's kinda hard to get nominated if one is hiding in the basement.
...convince the gullible of a "second wave",
So you've not taken the time to look at the climb in Covid related hospitalization rates in Ak, Az, NC,SC......
I'm hoping every Trump supporter gets a chance to attend one of these rallies.....
Have you taken the time at looking at the actual reasons for these alleged spikes?
Do you have a problem of people going back to work so they can pay their bills and feed their children
Are you saying that social distancing and the wearing of masks doesn't work after all?
Aren't you concerned about all the new cases that might occur because of all the crowds of protestors and rioters?
And yet, that is exactly what happened on June 6th.
Biden secures Democratic presidential nomination for November showdown against Trump
And I put the question that I've recently asked you that you wont answer again....
Are you good with the ensuing hospitalization rate and body count that will come by reopening too soon? If you don't fight the infection, you can't heal the economy.
....alleged spikes?
It will take you less effort to find sufficient state generated Covid hopitilization increases than to search Breitbart for comebacks supporting your far right fabrications.
The rising rate of infection proof is already out there XD.... all you have to do is read the Covid hospitalization rates in states like Florida, Arkansas, Arizona, Texas, Oregon, California. It is available from state issued data.
I'll leave you to pick at fly shit to try to find another explanation to fit the data of why rates are going up in different states. Ignore the elephant in the room if you want.
Don't blame me for your laziness to check facts, but try this...
UPDATED JUNE 9, 2020
Twenty-one U.S. states reported weekly increases in new cases of COVID-19, with Arizona , Utah and New Mexico all posting rises of 40% or higher for the week ended June 7 compared with the prior seven days, according to a Reuters analysis.
Annnnnnnddddddd Hospitilization rates are going up....
Arizona
Texas
North Carolina.... to name a few
So now what the hell do you want to try to argue about....?
Please share your need for this exactitude.... and spare your hysterics other than to obfuscate the facts that as states have opened up, and their infection and hospitalization rates have gone up correspondingly within about a three week window.
Next thing you'll want the date and time of your rapture.
And it's been a pleasure staying on a target that is now belly up, and charred at the edges.
Have a good weekend XD.... Margarita time!
Except that's not true at all. Some have. Some haven't. Some that remain closed have gone up (California), some have gone down.
I wonder if you will say the same about these radical leftists when the blue cities they were looting and destroying start to see spikes.
Difference is, the rate of STDs will probably rise also, especially in Seattle.
I was an Air Intercept controller in the Navy for 16 of my 20 years. They all thought they were Tom Cruise. The best pilots to interact with were the P3 pilots who were my Tactical Action Officers for most of my career. Much more down to earth.
In spite of left wing attempts to convince the gullible of a "second wave", the common sense recommendations of proper social spacing and mask use should provide adequate protection from contracting the virus, which appears to have weakened somewhat.
Yup-- ya shore ken say thet again!
(Forbes, June 10th):
Texas Shatters Record For New Coronavirus Cases
Texas reported over 2,500 new coronavirus cases Wednesday—the highest reported in a single day by far since the pandemic started—as the number of Texans currently admitted to hospitals for coronavirus climbed to a new record for the third straight day, as the state, which had one of the fastest and most aggressive reopening timelines in the nation, has seen a surge in infections about two weeks after Memorial Day.

Don't forget NW Arkansas
Hospital issues statement on ‘serious public health emergency’ in Northwest Arkansas
by: Garrett Fergeson Posted Updated: Jun 11, 2020 /
I'm more inclined to believe that the most recent spike of cases is more because of how some of the States opened back up too soon and without following proper guidelines plus that batch of yahoo's that went crazy with their Memorial Day celebrations and brought the infection back with them.
Due to the 10 day / 2 weeks or more for the incubation period of this virus the full impact of the protest are still pending.
Let's hope he gets a good crowd at every one-- that the place is packed with his followers! We should all wish him great success in that regard!
Funny how I feel the same about the leftists who looted, rioted and burned down private and public property.
I'm sure you probably feel they were putting their lives on the line for a "cause", so they are forgiven....at least that is what the talking point excuse is.
First off the date is now the 20th, since progressives have driven the narrative about the "Juneteenth", which In my humble opinion very few people know about, including the planners of the event. We have seen the country open up - deaths are down, one only can guess how much so by late July!
Trump wanted to give an anti-black lives matter speech on the site of an anti-black atrocity in 1921 and on the date of final African American emancipation in 1865. The media spoke out about it negatively and so Trump bowed to the pleading of his advisors (most likely Ivanka and Jared) and reluctantly changed the day of the rally.
wow, what a gracious guy, if his advisors hadn't convinced him of negative election consequences, he'd have invited the KKK, if he could have spelt it.
I'm sure that's what he wanted/s He even got the democrat governor of North Carolina, Roy Cooper to hem & haw about having restoring normalcy by July.
It was a great conspiracy because, as we all know, everybody knows about "Juneteenth"/s
The media spoke out
it's called a narrative - a disgusting one to smear the President. After all you need every black vote! Let's sow some racial division - it's election time again!
The President [deleted] has continued to use RACE to divide the formerly United States, and what ever else , as he attempts to drive the wedgie into the masses like a wedge of cheese to split the crack of asses that he parts like those who can't red, what he said, as either can he, but he reads in a figuritivly illiteracy mono tone kissing cousins and porno stars tone loc
Why don't you prove what you bleated?
You mean..... ummmmm….. well...… hmmmmmm...… When again ?
Seems to me, it was "Liberal Types" that condemned a "Black Man" (Kanye west) for going to meet with President Trump. They even Ranted and Raved...………. "This is the most repulsive, disgraceful and embarrassing act of desperation I've EVER seen".
Remind me what these "Protests" are again ?
Does Repulsive, Disgraceful and Embarrassing act of Desperation come to mind ?
You have to understand that what he bleated is nothing more than talking points given out each morning to them.
But wasn't he said by Trump that the virus will disappear.?
Isn't he also advising them to post an early vote for him, just in case they kick the bucket from having become infected at the rally?
Not to worry-- I'm sure they will all follow the example set by "Dear Leader"...and not wear masks....and be in close contact with each other in a crowded hall!

I'm sure you're right.
I'm sure you're right.
You can say that again!
White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany told reporters on Wednesday she didn't have specific information but said "we will ensure that everyone who goes is safe."
I hope Trump supporters know that she is speaking strictly about Trump and his inner circle. Everyone else can F-O and die. Literally.

Really?
Perhaps they are NOT impressed by the hyped up fear mongering lies of the left
Then that would bring this:
...more into focus.
Serious question for you.
Do Democrats NOT love the poorly educated?
Do Democrats NOT love a substantial portion of their base?
I am always asking this because while lots of people LOVE to bring this quote up, no one ever bothers to answer the questions I have asked.
Obama won the highest percentage of the uneducated of any previous Presidential election.
Something wrong with loving the poorly educated?
Notice I got the usual "answer" to my easy questions?
Seems like perhaps the Democrats don't love their very own base!
Of course they cheered. At least Trump didn't lie about them being poorly educated.
You do realize Hillary won more people with high school education or less than Trump did, right?
Serious answer for you-- that's one heck of an over-generalization!
Not all Democrats all have the same views on everything!
And, BTW, (some folks here may find this equally astounding):...not all Republicans have exactly the same views on everything either!
Seriously!..
But you already knew that....
(Or did you?)
Did you really think you could get away with that?
Obama Education Gap Extends to General Election
McCain leads Obama among those with a high school education or less
PRINCETON, NJ -- Barack Obama leads John McCain by a significant margin among voters with the most education, but trails the likely Republican nominee among voters with the least formal education.
Not much sense in responding if you can't answer the simple questions posed.
If you actually read and understood my post, you can plainly see that I didn't say ALL Democrats.
But every time I see that quote, it doesn't EVER come from a conservative or a Republican.
Come on back if you want to take a stab at ANSWERING.
Did YOU?
Instead of looking at polls before the election, why not look at election RESULTS?

Gee, I guess that balances out with all the Democrats wanting to protest in large groups.
An arena or on the streets--not much difference.
The reasons are most definitely different though.
One is trying to move the country towards equality through civil rights risking personal health. The other is risking personal health in an effort to elect an individual in the hope of keeping social injustice as it is, or to turn the clock back on civil rights.
Yes and MAGA Twits keep overlooking (on purposes?) all the coverage in the press concerned about spikes in those communities too.
So the ends justify the means if you approve of the goal?
Interesting that you would elect to put others at risk while complaining about others putting people at risk.
The debate is about the risks of public gatherings--not ideological differences.
Well, that is certainly one myopic way of looking at it. Personally, I fell differently.
Are you a supporter of civil rights and equality Tex? .... for the record.
If you are, then we are on the same side of the issue. Support for this administration places one squarely on the opposite side of supporting equality as outlined in the US Constitution and making progress towards the country that constitution says we are supposed to be..
And yes.... supporting the protests that move the United States along to equality under the Constitution is worth the additional sickness and potential deaths. Those that would oppose that granted under the Constitution would be against that Constitution.
I find your question monumentally insulting.
And for the record...YES.
You were doing pretty good up until you wrote that crap.
Nuff said...... I'll let the rest of our members take in you thoughts and statements.
You know where I stand with regards to the US Constitution. As far as I'm concerned, that's all that matters. Everything else is either in support of that Constitution, or it's not.
I am almost overwhelmed at your extreme generosity in allowing others to read what I write.
And you know where I stand.
And just like that..... Everyone that cared to stay ignorant about the Covid pandemic, went to the same give-a-shit about civil rights.
It looks like Trump's brainwashing techniques do work on the majority of the uneducated. Could it be as simple as monkey see... monkey do, in an effort to emulate Agent Orange?
So now the uneducated base of Democratic voters will be brainwashed by Trump and vote for him?
Cool!
Nice try..... See you at the ballot box in November.
Hey, just going by what you claim you see.
If you doubt me, just look at the stats for high school graduation by race.
Then tell me ALL about how the poorly educated always vote for Republicans.
It's hilarious watching the same people who cheered mass protests claim trump shouldn't have rallies.
They must lack any sense of self awareness.
They should look at how the people who lack high school diplomas vote.
So you are saying many leftists will vote for Trump? Probably right.
probably because they did not get indoctrinated into progressiveism / liberalism / communism at college.
Neither is completely safe-- but its been established that enclosed spaces are much more conducive to the spread of the virus than open spaces. (For starters, air in large enclosed spaces keeps getting recirculated).
And of course since trump sets an example , his not wearing a mask means its likely a much higher percentage of his sycophants won't either.
The other is risking personal health in an effort to elect an individual in the hope of keeping social injustice as it is, or to turn the clock back on civil rights.
Got any credible evidence to support this lie?
What would it matter to you..... you've ignored all credible evidence supplied on many a subject, just like your savior Trump.
BTW,,,,, we have lots of credible evidence of you ignoring credible evidence Greg...
And just how do they intend to guarantee that?
Maybe force everyone to get vaccinated by that malaria vaccine which can have deadly consequences...as Dr. Fauci and others have warned against!
(It might kill you...but it won't hurt the virus!)``
it is not a vaccine... lol
dr fauci and others are full of shit.
millions take that drug as it used for several other things all the time.
In 2017, it was the 128th most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than five million prescriptions.
the left twisting science on its head to force political issues is nothing new.
the latest bs from chicago, you believed that? really? leftwing bs from a leftwing city.? who would have guessed... LOL
Two major studies casting doubt on the ability of antimalaria drugs to treat Covid-19 patients based on data from a little-known Chicago company, Surgisphere Corp., were retracted Thursday.
Just curious-- where did you get your medical degree? And after that-- where did you do your training? And for how many years?
I just like to know the true facts (not the "alternative facts" )- I would like to compare your medical education to Dr. Fauci's so I can see who's more knowledgable on the subject.
Which is a smart move, as I'm sure you'll agree.
I'm not a doctor but I have a master's in decyphering liberal bs
.lockdowns did nothing to stop the spread of that virus
I'm not the smartest peach in the basket, but it seems that a person of your... educational caliber...could find a link that isn't going on 2 months old, and more particularly, one that isn't clearly misrepresenting Gov. Cuomo's meaning.
One more tiny thing: I hope you hit spell-check before submitting your master's thesis.
Proof positive that he really doesn't care at all about his base. He isn't trying to protect them the same way he did not try to protect the American people when he knew about the virus much earlier than February. It is almost like he is now aware he will lose the election and has no problem with the loss of life to his own voting base from a rise in cases of the virus. It is like he will use their loss of life to use as an excuse for losing the election. He will just say that the rise in the virus is due to protests and ignore his packed rallies, then when he does lose he will blame that loss on the loss of his voting base blaming protesters instead.
Yeah. Two things will happen. Whoever wasn't really a Trump supporter but was planning to go to a rally for whatever reason...that probably won't happen now; and since that won't happen, it's also likely that the only people at these rallies will be a nice mix of the worst people our nation has to offer. Many, many, many of them will contract the virus and spread it to their friends, church mates, etc...and maybe....just maybe, "the 30%" will thin down to like "the 15%" as the people contracting the virus start actually becoming jaded towards the orange god.
Now, some of these Trumpists might cloak themselves in the belief that they are covered in "blood of Jesus", but I would argue that if they think they are covering themselves in blood (and this HAS been used by people as a "defense" against COVID-19 lol), that should merit some sort of criminal investigation. That ain't Jesus's blood.
Those that fail to embrace the science of biology are destined to be culled by it....
I like that. Going right into the hip pocket.
In this area the fatality rate of the virus is only .15% so that risk is pretty low. They have a better chance of being culled from cancer or heart disease around here.
It doesn't appear that all the protestors or rioters are paying any attention to the science of biology.
Hopefully, a lot of them will be culled by it.
God. I'm just dying to go to this rally. Or will be afterwards. Either way.
Ha! Ha! Good one.
