Hermain Cain dies after month long battle with COVID-19

Maybe it's the whole 9-9-9 thing but I always thought Cain was to Republicans as Sgt Shultz was to Nazis. More of a comedic figure to be laughed at than a villain to be reviled.

Does it strike anyone else as weird that the first big name pro trump anti-mask Trump supporter to die though his own stupidity turned out to be black?

With easy access to all that Godfather's pizza, I'm sure he had more than a few underlying health conditions.
 
He had metastasized stage 4 colon and liver cancer in 2006 and had to have very aggressive chemo along with surgery because of it. So an already reduced immune, respiratory, or cardiovascular system isn't an unreasonable probability.

The black guy always dies first. I learned this from watching American movies.

Having that kind of underlying health problems and still not taking precautions make him even more stupid.

Like so many of trump's supporters/followers Cain seems to have ignored the reality that actions can have consequences. Almost all reputable doctors advise wearing a mask, social distancing and avoid areas where cases are increasing. You ignore all that and it's very possible you might get sick. What is political about that idea?

It is truly unbelievable the way trump and his minions have politicized a viral epidemic. There's some pushback in other countries, sure, but nothing like what we're seeing in the US. There's a reason why the United States with 4% of the world's population has over 20% of the reported coronavirus cases.

These reckless fools are dragging all of us down with them.

That's pretty much who he was before Trump, who would have maintained a similar status had he not started winning primaries. They're morons of a similar level politically, though it seems that Herman Cain was at least competent at managing/running businesses.

But less successful at getting away with sexual harassment.
 
I'm interested to see how the Fox News prime time shows spin this. Not interested enough to actually watch said shows of course. I'm sure "Reliable Sources" will give me an adequate summary on Sunday.

He's the wrong color for them to mention it.
 
Over 155 thousand deaths total. 60k+ infections a day. 252 deaths in Florida today. 322 in Texas. Herman Cain dying of this virus after refusing to wear a mask at a Trump rally because his party Leader is so anti-covid and masks.

What exactly will it take for Republicans to start to get angry about this with the way the White House is running things?
