Corona Fest - Tulsa

  • TOB is holding a "SARS-CoV-2 express" (Corona Fest) rally in Tulsa tomorrow. He was going to do it today (June 19th, Juneteenth) but some of his people convinced him that wasn't a good idea. Holding a rally at the site of a murderous race riot about 100 years ago is questionable to everyone except a self-centered narcissist like TOB (TheOrangeBuffoon, though some refer to him as The Marmalade Mussolini. I don't think TMM works as well, do you? It does reflect his politics better, though.)

     

    There is (https://twitter.com/TulsaPolice/status/1273801875868004353, https://www.foxnews.com/politics/tulsa-mayor-implements-federal-exclusion-zone-curfew-ahead-of-trumps-rally) or is not (https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1274056758319874052) a curfew and emergency order in effect. The organizers will (or will not) hand out face masks, maybe do temperature checks, and will require attendees to sign a liability waiver (same Fox piece). In about 2 weeks, we'll see how Tulsa and surrounding towns are doing in their coronavirus-19 new case count. OK state case count has been rising the past 10 or more days (https://twitter.com/paulkrugman/status/1274000671864479744/photo/1) which they may be blaming on more testing -- because after all, "if you don't test so much your numbers don't go up so much". Ignorance truly is bliss to some.

     

    "Any protesters, anarchists, agitators, looters or lowlifes who are going to Oklahoma please understand, you will not be treated like you have been in New York, Seattle, or Minneapolis. It will be a much different scene!" (TOB's twitter, above). The first amendment is only important when he wants to draw the attention of his white Evangelical base. This person does not care about anyone but himself.
