    Herman Cain dies

    He was one of the few blacks I would have actually liked to see in office.

    A fine man and a great loss to this country.

        Diagnosed after his trip to Tulsa for the rally. Photographed there not masked, not distancing. One of those decisions that didn't pan out.

          His death apparently made togor happy.

            No. But if his death saves the lives of others, by illustrating the very real danger of the pandemic, then it isn't a total waste. Think about it--if not for the pandemic, and the choices he made, he'd still be alive. He had the money, the resources, to ride this out in a safe place. It's not like they forced him to make pizzas or lose his job.

              Face masks do not filter air plus you can breath right through them.

              Only a canister mask like a gas mask filters air.

              Cain being a politician, no doubt was surrounded by many people at times, perhaps too close.

              There's more about COVID-19 that we don't know than what we do know.

                He also had advanced cancer, but everyone knows you die from only the virus.

                  Like pneumonia gets everyone.

                    Is he dead? Is there a corona virus pandemic? Well, there you have it!

                      Cain had colon cancer in 2006, beat it, and DT wants to list it as the cause of death in 2020. Geeze.

                        Convenient that he died after attending a Trump rally. You get to slam Trump one more time without proof of where Cain got the virus. It's the liberals way.

                          Imagine that, political positions with real life-and-death ramifications. One can almost imagine politics, the Presidency, being serious grown-up stuff again someday, as opposed to a seriously awful reality TV show.

                            The fact that you don't like Trump is cause enough for you to gleefully announce that Cain died simply because he was a friend of Trump? How sick.

                            Send in your alter ego.

                              No glee here. Cain died because he downplayed the threat of the virus, in an orbit with other people who took a similar view. He had a choice, unlike so many who didn't. You tell me--did Herman Cain die for freedom? Or did he just die from Covid-19 like 150K other Americans have so far.
