interesting short thread on him from his former campaign manager

Some donk staffer has been running his account the last few weeks, reads like a TX Bill/LiamG hybrid with all the cluelessness about Covid19 you would expect from such a Frankenstein

Herman Cain dies from coronavirus

Very sad, he was in a high risk group but the last update by his media team had been encouraging

I don't know much about him to be honest, but scrolling through, his twitter feed has been a shambles for much more than a few weeks.

Yea, he went full Trump.
A rocket scientist who beat stage 4 cancer heard Trump warn that a few people at his upcomming Tulsa rally would contract coronavirus, still went, didn't wear a mask or social distance. This was weeks, not months ago.
The grip this right wing Fox fuelled nonsense has on people is frightening.

His 2012 campaign seems almost tame in retrospect but at the time there was a lot of wtf moments including this ad in support of a stage IV cancer survivor (although admittedly not lung cancer)

A rather needless and tragic death that could have likely been avoided if it weren't for his political views:

Does seem tame in retrospect... but there's definite Trumpy notes in there...

Lol

Lol

Another example of people who are smart at one thing, thinking they are smart at everything. Heavy price payed for that.

Preemptively making his death about politics so libruls can't make his death about politics?

I didn’t Come here to change my political view, I came here for the Blues.

With political views such as yours, you should have supported Chelsea.

It makes absolutely no sense to me, in the slightest, why Donald fn Trump is their hill to die on. Literally in this case. Nobody should ever follow any idea as blindly as these absolute weapons are following the one person who throws everyone under the bus and takes no responsibility for anything he ever does.

I don't despise Herman Cain, I pity him. How blinded and brainwashed do you have to be to not question how dangerous Trump's "policies" are?
