Trump Going to Wisconsin For Killer Rally UPDATED

Wisconsin Covid-19 New Infection Rate*

Update:  Trump has not officially cancelled his La Crosse event, but city officials have been informed that Air Force One will not be coming to La Crosse, so they're assume Trump has listen to their pleas.  No word on Trump's Green Bay rally, despite that community's serious Covid-19 outbreak.

Trump will be holding two of his MAGA hate fests in Wisconsin this week despite the fact that the state is experience a massive flare up in Covid-19 cases.  In La Crosse, where Trump is planning a Covid-19 super spreader event for Saturday, county health officials last week put out a warning to the community stating, "You should assume that you will come into contact with COVID-19 whenever you interact with people outside of your household because we have widespread COVID-19 activity in our community."

LaCrosses' mayor doesn't want the Trump event in his community and doesn't understand how Trump can hold one of his maskless, social distancing free event while his state and community are facing a major increase in cases, hospitalization and deaths.

La Crosse, Wisconsin Mayor Tim Kabat told CNN’s Alisyn Camerota on Thursday that he does not want President Donald Trump to hold a rally that’s planned to take place in his city on Saturday.

When Camerota asked Kabat why the president was ignoring the pleas of local health officials, he expressed bewilderment.

“I do not understand,” he said. “I think that’s, you know, something that we expect out of our leaders is to really lead by example. And in this case, obviously, it’s ‘Do as I say, not as I do,’ and coming out of the his own task force and talking about trying to again keep people safe.”

Trump doesn't care about the impact of his events on the communities where they are held.  As long as the MAGA hoards cheer him on Saturday, he doesn't care if they get sick and die after the event.
