'Reckless and selfish': Nevada Gov. Sisolak slams Trump for holding big indoor rally

Source: NBC News

WASHINGTON — Nevada Gov. Steve Sisolak slammed President Donald Trump Sunday night for violating state rules by holding a 2020 campaign rally indoors with thousands of people.

In a lengthy thread on Twitter, the Democratic governor said that Trump "is knowingly packing thousands into an indoor venue to hold a political rally" and has "forgotten that this country is still in the middle of a global pandemic."

"This is an insult to every Nevadan who has followed the directives, made sacrifices, and put their neighbors before themselves," Sisolak said. "It's also a direct threat to all of the recent progress we've made and could potentially set us back."

The governor said of Trump, "As usual, he doesn't believe the rules apply to him" and accused the president of "reckless and selfish actions."

Doesn't matter what it is, he'll break it. Too bad we don't have a law and order Senate that could have removed his fat worthless....

When are they going to realize that?

They need to be outlawed. The organizers must be fined and jailed.

Baseball, football, hockey, basketball - indeed all the national sports events have been modified and stepped down this year to avoid the spread of this virus. What's wrong with Chump?
