I'm surprised Trump is still doing rallies.

[drray23]

He has one this evening. He is a known germaphobe. How come he is not worried about catching Covid-19 ? Does he actually believe his own hype ?

[dewsgirl]

1. I'm not, he's irresponsible and lives in the moment and gives

less than a shit about anyone else. It won't surprise me a bit when he catches it/goes into hiding, until then his me, me, me rallies will continue.

[Siwsan]

2. He has to keep his cult convinced he's right that there's no real risk

However, I'd like to see what would happen if people start coughing and sneezing.

[budkin]

3. It's literally ALL he has.

He'll never give them up.

[Girard442]

4. He's a rally junky. He has to get his fix, no matter what.

Would be a heckuva thing if the place was empty. How tight would they have to frame the camera shot to make 30 people look like a throng?

[Blue_true]

19. Yes, he needs the adulation that MAGATS give him. nt

[louis-t]

5. I would like to see a large group

go to one of his Nazi rallies and start coughing in front of him. He would lose his mind.

[Ohiogal]

6. I had the same thought!

[Ilsa]

7. I hope everyone behind him starts sneezing and coughing

while he's on stage clapping his hands like a monkey.

[Turbineguy]

8. Yeah

with all these infected DemoRats there trying to infect him.

[brush]

9. Good thought. Sanders has big rallies too. This virus is going to impact the race.

[jimfields33]

10. Let's hope everyone goes about their day

We do have a big primary tomorrow. How awful would that be if nobody showed up.

[The Genealogist]

11. His ego is obviously bigger than that his germophobia

There is a movie called Soapdish in which Sally Field plays an aging soap star. When she gets down and ner ego deflates her producer takes her to Paramus, NJ where mobs of people fawn over her and she signs autographs. I always think of this when I hear about a Trump rally. His ego constantly has to be reinforced with adulation from crowds of deplorables. Pathetic.

[kskiska]

12. He has a fit whenever anyone coughs in his presence.

"We'll see what happens."

[Maru Kitteh]

13. Google images of him at rallies, he stays far, FAR AWAY from the poorly

educated, impoverished people at his rally so he does not catch their poor people diseases. He doesn't do selfies with anyone unless they've paid the requisite $400K membership to him at his Murky Logo swamp golf club.

He'll keep having rallies, but I'll bet the width of his "safe space" gets bigger.

[Liberal In Texas]

24. Yep, he doesn't exactly mix with the MAGAs...the serfs...the peons...

[blueinredohio]

14. He's Not a Germantown. If he was he wouldn't have stuck his dick in anybody that would let him.

And some who didn't let him, he did it anyway.

[tblue37]

16. LOL! Look at what autocorrect did to your subject line. nt

[blueinredohio]

17. Sorry I didn't look at it before posting. Thanks. I meant germaphobe.

[tblue37]

18. I knew you did--but autocorrect has its own idea of what's permissable. nt

[Blue_true]

20. Autocorrect is a pleasure, huh? I have learned the hard way to read before posting.

[Chainfire]

15. T doesn't have to worry about the virus

Out of professional courtesy.

[Nay]

28. LOLOL!! Good one! nt

[Flaleftist]

21. Maybe he honestly believes it is a hoax and conspiracy against him.

[bern2020]

22. I bet he doesn't shake hands

unless you're a big fat cat donor

[Xolodno]

23. Simple...

1. It feeds his ego and as much of a germaphobe he is, getting praise and listening to himself talk gives him a huge high.

2. Pretty sure all his aides in the White House want his ass on the campaign trail so they have a sense peace. So they encourage him to continue to do rallies despite having the GOP nomination already wrapped up.

[Totally Tunsie]

25. Pack 'em all in to a hot, sweaty, crowded auditorium

and then think of the possibility that at least one of them has had COVID-19 exposure.

[Nay]

29. One can only hope that karma will decide to take this route. nt

[Skittles]

26. he has to feed his ego

it's a compulsion that seems to override his germophobia
