The Twitter account belonging to the late Herman Cain, who died after being infected with COVID-19 in July, issued an eyebrow-raising proclamation on Sunday night.
It looks like the virus is not as deadly as the mainstream media first made it out to be, the account tweeted with an article by the Western Journal, a right-wing media outlet.
The tweet was subsequently deleted.

Pretty straight forward to me, I'd say.
Old Herman was proudly sitting in one of the front rows in Tulsa ( without a mask). Course that was just before he contracted Covid and died shortly there after. Happily showing his support for a loose cannon wild eyed sociopath who wouldnt piss on him if he was on fire.

hmmm, does this account run itself? Maybe he uploaded himself to skynet? Being dead ain't so bad.

I shouldn't be shocked anymore, but this is a new dimension of crazy.
