Herman Cain, Former Presidential Candidate Who Refused To Wear A Mask, Dies From Coronavirus
Herman Cain, a former Presidential candidate and supporter of Donald Trump, has died after testing positive for COVID-19. His website confirmed on Thursday stating, “We’re heartbroken, and the world is poorer: Herman Cain has gone to be with the Lord.”
The 74-year old businessman learned of his diagnosis on June 29, nine days after attending a Trump rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where he and many others crowded together without wearing face masks aimed at preventing the spread of the novel coronavirus. He spent most of July in an Atlanta-area hospital.

Just before announcing his diagnosis on July 2, Cain posted support for not mandating masks at a July 4 event at Mount Rushmore in South Dakota that Trump was planning to attend.
“Masks will not be mandatory for the event, which will be attended by President Trump. PEOPLE ARE FED UP!” he tweeted.
Cain made his fortune as chief executive of Godfather’s Pizza and just started hosting a new show on Newsmax TV.
Sending condolences to his loved ones.
Y’all PLEASE where your masks! It’s not hard. Let’s take care of ourselves and each other.
