Tulsa, June 19 (RHC)-- In the U.S. state of Oklahoma, Tulsa’s Republican Mayor G.T. Bynum said he will not be attending President Trump’s first campaign rally since the start of the pandemic on Saturday, telling reporters: “I’m not positive that everything is safe.”
Nineteen thousand people are expected to pack an arena for Trump’s rally, and city officials say they’re expecting up to 100,000 Trump supporters to descend on Tulsa for the president’s visit.
While the Trump campaign is demanding that the attendees sign a waiver to absolve them of responsibility in case they get COVID-19, they are not requiring that attendees wear masks. Observers say that, after all, would be considered an infringement on their rights to get sick and infect others.
