Trump is about to hold a pandemic rally in Erie, Pennsylvania, that makes a mockery of basic public health guidelines. Follow for a video thread.
This is ... not a coherent thought
"You have to watch what we do to 60 Minutes. You'll get such a kick of it. You're gonna get a kick out of it. Lesley Stahl is not gonna be happy." -- Trump
Trump is now doing video presentations at his rallies, complete with scary-sounding music
"There's no flu that's gonna keep this man down!" -- Rep. Mike Kelly, presumably referring to Trump's coronavirus diagnosis, which is definitely not the same as the flu
"I wasn't coming to Erie ... I have to be honest, there was no way I was coming" -- Trump's pitch to Erie is basically telling people how much he doesn't want to be there. Bold strategy.
Trump is still very confused about how stealth planes work
Minutes after telling Erie he doesn't really want to be there, Trump tells his fans he's going to cut his speech short because he's cold. It's 50 degrees there. Quite a sales pitch!
"Nobody wants me" -- Trump is apparently feeling insecure tonight. Must've been that whoopin' from Lesley Stahl.
A sedated-sounding Trump whispers his way through the familiar end of his speech, which I've never heard before. A thoroughly bizarre performance in Erie.
oof
!!! Kayleigh McEnany is actually doing the "YMCA" dance
