Trump Staffer Became Severely Ill at Tulsa Rally

An excerpt from Jonathan Karl’s new book, Betrayal: The Final Act of the Trump Show, in Vanity Fair reveals that a Trump campaign staffer became critically ill after the disastrous Tulsa rally Donald Trump forced his campaign to stage as the coronavirus pandemic raged.

“This employee of the Trump campaign, whose name I’ve been asked not to disclose, was unable to drive home like the others. Instead, this staffer was hospitalized in Tulsa for a week. This staffer had been worried about the dangers of working on the rally because of preexisting conditions that made the prospect of being infected especially dangerous, but the president had demanded an indoor rally despite the warnings of public health officials, and the staffer faithfully responded by helping to organize it. Now that the rally was over, the president was back in Washington complaining bitterly that more people had not shown up, while this campaign worker was stuck in Tulsa, lying in a hospital bed thinking his life was about to end.”

It’s the same rally where Hermain Cain likely contracted Covid-19 and later died.
