Trump rally in Sanford (north of Orlando): despicable super-spreader event

President Trump will hold his first rally outside of Washington following his coronavirus diagnosis at the Orlando Sanford International Airport on Monday, his reelection campaign said Friday.

“Will be in Sanford, Florida on Monday for a very BIG RALLY!” Trump tweeted.

The event will come 10 days after his originally scheduled rally at the airport was canceled because of the positive virus test he and First Lady Melania Trump received. He revealed that news in a tweet early that Friday morning.

It will also happen two days after Vice President Mike Pence’s campaign swing through Orlando and The Villages on Saturday, as Trump and Vice President Joe Biden battle for votes in the crucial swing state of Florida.
