Trump defended his indoor rally in Nevada by saying he was far away from the crowd and thus not afraid of getting the virus.

Donald Trump defended his decision to defy coronavirus mitigation orders in order to hold a packed indoor rally in Henderson, Nevada, on Sunday night, saying that he was far away from the thousands of maskless attendees who were defying social distancing orders.

"I'm on a stage, and it's very far away," Trump said in an interview with a reporter from the Las Vegas Review-Journal. "And so I'm not at all concerned."

Trump expressed no concern in the interview for the thousands of his supporters who defied all social distancing orders to pack into the indoor rally, most of them not wearing masks, putting themselves at risk of contracting the deadly virus, which has to date killed 193,950 people in the United States.

Trump himself knows that the coronavirus is easily transmitted when people are gathered closely together indoors.

4. Here is a reallity check in real time.

Both Rallies yesterday were attended by several Stockholm Syndrome members from our Community. So,as my Spouse and I have decided,we are not going to even think about going anywhere near any of these folks.

Just what we need in our Community of fourteen Hundred Homes and mostly Seniors pushing 80,are these Idiots pushing a Pandemic.

11. Yepper spot on................

12. The people on the stage

With Trump were all required to wear masks.

13. Even after all that has come out recently about him and his prior knowledge of the seriousness of

the virus and how it's transmitted, he can still come right out and openly admit that the only person he cares about is himself and to hell with everyone else in the crowd. They are all just a bunch of suckers and losers. This is malignant narcissism taken to the nth degree.

Absolutely unbelievable. And what is more unbelievable is that there are still thousands of cult members who will show up, pack themselves in without masks and risk their lives for him.

17. Some of the Trumpers attending his rallies might die, but I guess it's a sacrifice he is

willing to make.
