It's been reported that the Trump campaign ordered buses, and then didn't bother to pay so the company refused to send them. So yes.

Also, pretty sure Trump had the rally... in the cold... during a pandemic. All he had to do was send out a statement that due to poor weather, the event was going to be cancelled. It might not have been ideal for his need for attention, but it would also not have led to another clear PR disaster.

Definitely your opinion and not the opinion of historians and presidential scholars.

He is ranked around 42nd among presidents currently. That makes him the 3rd worst president in US history, only slightly better than Andrew Johnson and James Buchanan.

He has been mostly a shell of a president, he doesn't spearhead any policies, most of the really consequential stuff he's done are the work of Republicans in congress, particularly Mitch McConnel (i.e. tax cuts, Conservative SCOTUS, etc). If he wasn't such an unstable blowhard, he'd be mediocre at best.

Cold weather hit, and as-a-result, the folks unfortunately got hypothermia from walking in it.

End of story. Where's the scandal and kool-aid drinking? Such a dumb article and pointless "blame Trump" narrative.

TDS in full effect here.



Down here in Fort Worth we have a thing called a 'weather report'. I hope that Nebraska gets on board with weather reports. Perhaps these Trump supporters would have been forewarned, before they left for the rally, that it was cold and going to get colder.



Or is that a 'science' thing?

I thought he hired only the best people. He said so himself, repeatedly.

Trump not content with killing his own supporters at his covid superspreader rallies?
He's submitting them to hyperthermia as well?



As an election winning tactic, it's a real headscratcher.

Yeah. Well, Trump is not known for being a rational person. He is one of the, if not THE, most inept President/s in history.

As for the people who loved Reagan, I doubt Reagan would like Trump as President. In fact, he'd be horrified.

Had it been a Biden rally this would not have been an issue. They could have been transported in one clown car.

Sounds like the local organizers messed up. How is this Trump's fault?

He shouldn't be holding covid superspreader death rallies in the first place.

Biden and Biden supporters are too smart to have rallies in the first place during this time of pandemic. They follow science and rational thoughts, as opposed to voting only because of memes or their Trump-loving friends.
