Trump furious that he can't do rallies in Florida after its GOP governor made COVID spread 'worse'

Trump furious that he can’t do rallies in Florida after its GOP governor made COVID spread ‘worse’: report

https://www.rawstory.com/2020/08/trump-furious-that-he-cant-do-rallies-in-florida-after-its-gop-governor-made-spread-worse-report/


President Donald Trump is reportedly furious at one of his allies for taking his advice.

According to Vanity Fair’s Gabriel Sherman, the president is angry that he can’t hold any of his trademark campaign rallies in Florida amid its weeks-long surge in COVID-19 cases.

What’s more, Sherman’s sources say Trump is putting the blame for this predicament at the feet of Gov. Ron DeSantis, who has been eager to follow the president’s commands to reopen state economies even as the country records more than 50,000 infections and 1,000 new deaths from the novel coronavirus every day.

“He thinks Ron has made it a lot worse,” one Republican who spoke with Trump said.

Trump was forced to cancel his planned RNC acceptance speech in Jacksonville after public health officials told him there was no way to safely hold a mass gathering in the city without risking mass COVID-19 infection.

Nonetheless, one aide tells Sherman that “rallies are his jam” and that “Trump won’t be happy until he is doing multiple rallies a day.”

Always, always, blame someone else even when you had a role in the mess.

“No, I don’t take responsibility at all”

Lock him up.

Giants Fan Cutouts, Your Opportunity to be in the Ballpark

Be in the ballpark this season – sort of. While fans can't attend games at Oracle Park in person, your image can still be in a seat! For $99, select a seat and upload a smiling photo of yourself wearing your Giants gear. Then look for yourself in the stands while watching Giants games on television.

At the conclusion of the 2020 season, you can take your cutout home! Your MLB authenticated game-used cutout will be available for pick up at Oracle Park (cutouts cannot be mailed).

Sit close to a Forever Giant or Celebrity Giants Fan

Giants celebrity fans and Forever Giants will be seated throughout the ballpark and fans will have a choice, when purchasing their cutout, to select a seat in the same section or as close as possible to their favorite celebrity or Giants alumni. Click here to see celebrities with seating sections.

So for 99 bucks, his fans can sponsor themselves through cardboard cutouts in the stadiums, and trump can have his Nazi orgy, complete with cheering and sound effects!
