The Trump campaign wanted to move past the coronavirus with a rally in Tulsa. Instead, eight of its campaign staffers potentially infected hundreds of people.

. ASM has offered to test all of its staff on Saturday, regardless if they worked the rally. So far there have been no reports of staff members exhibiting symptoms.

Trump in Tulsa was not Katrina in New Orleans, but the two shared some common themes -- a President in denial, an unprecedented historical disaster in the making and a recalcitrant mayor in Bynum, who initially supported the rally but sought to shift part of the blame after assessments estimated 100,000 people would descend on Tulsa. Worried about the potential for civil unrest and rioting, Bynum enacted a curfew “following consultation with the U.S.

By that point, news of the event had been picked up by the national media, with outlets seizing upon a growing number of COVID-19 cases in the city. Around the same time, ASM was seeking authorization that the rally complied with state guidelines. The next morning, Gov.formally acknowledged in a letter that the Trump campaign could lawfully stage a rally at full capacity and noted the event was “consistent with the guidance for Oklahoma’s Open Up and Recover Safely plan.”

To Thornton, the order from the governor’s office -- which wrote the guidelines shutting down and reopening the state in response to the COVID-19 crisis -- coupled with the Supreme Court order, was an explicit indication that the building had a legal obligation to allow the Trump campaign to stage a full capacity rally at the BOK Center.

Washington Post: Trump campaign had social distancing stickers removed before Tulsa rallyPresident Trump's campaign directed the removal of thousands of 'Do Not Sit Here, Please!' stickers, designed to help ensure social distancing, from seats in the arena where he held a rally last week in Tulsa, Oklahoma, the Washington Post reported Pay close attention to this information. This is talking about what he did to HIS supporters. They may be loyal, but what is he saying about his loyalty to them? 'You are necessary collateral damage'? How does he continue to get away w/ all of this? His minions simply look the other way & continue to worship the ground he walks on. That oh so fragile ego of Donald’s is more important than anything pathetic

Trump Campaign Removed Social Distancing Stickers From Seats at Tulsa Rally'The Trump campaign didn’t just fail to require or encourage social distancing at the Tulsa rally — it took action to prevent it' Everyone would expect common sense and prudence would guide President Trump before he irresponsibly put his followers, American lives, in harm ways with COVID19 in rallies, but now we know those virtues are totally absent in him. He only cares about his re-election chances. Sad! wtf People weren’t forced to be there. They should have taken precautions for their own health. They didn’t. They are foolish.
