CNN will tout this as a Trump retreat due to “dwindling numbers” of attendees at live rallies...

Tulsa saw a surge in Covid-19 cases following the President's rally

Nothing to do with Trump’s rally.
Vastly more tests equals more positives.
Not to mention Al Sharpton and BLM plus Antifa held several events and riots in Tulsa at the time

“Tulsa saw a surge in Covid-19 cases following the President’s rally while several staffers were forced to quarantine after eight campaign staffers on the ground tested positive for coronavirus.“

I believe the exact opposite of whatever they say.

So, I believe that the Tulsa rally broke attendance records, cured cancer, ended poverty and that cripples were suddenly able to walk again as a result.

What happened to the president’s so-called outdoor rally in Portsmouth, New Hampshire?

Why has it not been re-scheduled?

Supposedly it was cancelled the first time because of a tropical storm. I live in Eastern Maine and there was no storm here.....just overcast with on and off drizzle.

The weather is warm everywhere now....I wish President Trump would schedule some massive outdoor events.
