Trump is about to deliver a pandemic rally speech in The Villages, Florida. Follow me for a video thread.

Trump lies about Mazie Hirono's statements about the Green New Deal, then accuses Biden of wanting to ban "air conditioning during the summer" and "heat during the winter." #NewTone

Trump goads the crowd into booing the press but then singles out John Roberts of Fox News, saying he "has bad moments" but "is a good guy."

Trump accuses Biden of talking about Covid so much because he "wants to scare people." In the next breath he reminisces about Rush Limbaugh referring to Obama as "Barack Hussein Obama."

One day after the US set a single-day record for new coronavirus cases, Trump claims the US is "rounding the corner beautifully" with regard to the pandemic

A guy behind Trump's left shoulder appear to make a white power hand gesture as he's speaking

Ron DeSantis is in the crowd, not wearing a mask. Trump jokes that he'll never speak to him again if he doesn't win.

"All Biden and his handlers in the media want to talk about today is Covid, Covid Covid ... on November 4th, you won't hear anything about it ... they want to scare you to try to make you vote for Biden" -- Trump

"You know why we have so many [coronavirus] case numbers? Because we do more testing than any country in the world ... there's plenty good about testing, too. The bad thing is you find cases." -- Trump still hasn't figured out that testing doesn't cause cases, the virus does

"We're not entering 'a dark winter.' We're entering the final turn and approaching the light at the end of the tunnel." -- Trump, the day after the US recorded the most new single-day coronavirus infections on record

The guy behind Trump is still making the white power sign

"With the best equipment in the world. Hydrosonic rockets." -- "Hydrosonic" is a brand of toothbrush

"Blood all over the sand" -- drink!

The guy behind Trump is still throwing up the white power sign. You'd think perhaps a campaign official would notice and at least get the guy off camera, but no.

he's still doing it

More white power hand gestures behind Trump

The guy throws up the sign again right after Trump says, "We have made America proud again."
