Six Trump campaign workers have tested positive for the coronavirus. A protester was arrested but it’s hard to figure out why.

Donald Trump is so eager to get back to his campaign rallies that he’s willing to put people at risk and violate CDC guidelines — as long as they sign a waiver promising not to hold his campaign liable.

Unbelievable.
This is what overflow looks like at the Trump rally in Tulsa right now. Pence is scheduled to speak out here in about 10 minutes. People still streaming in but not nearly the number the campaign said they were expecting. pic.twitter.com/hbypfviOxv

This is inside the Trump rally now. This will be the biggest single COVID spreading event of the pandemic.

“Mr. Trump, who was made aware of the sick campaign aides before departing for the rally, was incensed that the news was made public, according to two people familiar with his reaction.” @shearm and me on tonight’s rally in Tulsa https://t.co/89htgIxBCE

Where we're at five hours before Trump takes the stage in Tulsa:
— Philip Rucker (@PhilipRucker) June 20, 2020
-Six campaign staff tested positive for covid
-Tulsa recorded highest case count yet
-Most police, vendors and Trump fans gathered outside arena without masks
-Confederate flag was spottedhttps://t.co/fGBsZQYjiC
The reporting is that the woman who was just arrested outside the Trump rally was told she could not attend the political rally (she had a ticket) because she was wearing an “I Can’t Breathe” T-shirt! Hey First Amendment, if you’re listening . . .

Guess what, Tulsa police? The First Amendment freedoms of speech, petition, and peaceful assembly are binding on YOU too! And yes, even when Trump is in town!! https://t.co/vmkuSw3WMB

There are a lot of jokes already about how these Trump supporters are going to infect each other because they aren’t wearing masks. But I feel sorry for the overstressed medical workers who are going to have to clean up this mess. https://t.co/8byvTEtEh5

Only been at the Trump rally since 9, but something I’ve noticed: No anti-Biden merch. This shirt is for sale, but the anti-Dem stuff has been anti-Hillary or generically about liberals being losers. pic.twitter.com/dWASK8DLDe

Apologies Tulsa. When the White House sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re sending people that have problems & they’re bringing those problems. They’re bringing racism. They’re bringing homophobia & bigotry. They’re bringing corruption. They’re criminals. pic.twitter.com/E4vKd3AOPs
