Yet, another example of how the Republican party and Fox are enthusiastically supporting a sociopath.

Donald Trump defended holding an indoor campaign rally in Henderson, Nevada, on Sunday despite the ongoing pandemic, telling the Las Vegas Review-Journal that he wasnt personally in any danger.
Im on a stage and its very far away, Trump told the newspaper in an interview. And so Im not at all concerned.
Trumps rally at a Henderson warehouse was the campaigns first such event indoors in nearly three months. Thousands of the presidents supporters attended the event, and few of them practiced social distancing or wore masks to protect against the coronavirus.
The states Democratic governor, Steve Sisolak, said the president was reckless and selfish and had endangered his supporters. Trump called Sisolak a political hack in his interview with the Review-Journal.

Also, does he have any concern for the people standing right next to each other?

Your superspreaders in front of you were no maskers
