A post on Cain’s Twitter account on Thursday announced the death. Cain had been ill with the virus for several weeks. It’s not clear when or where he was infected, but he was hospitalized less than two weeks after attending President Donald Trump’s campaign rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma, in June.

The former pizza company executive has been an outspoken backer of the president and was named by the campaign as a co-chair of Black Voices for Trump.

“We knew when he was first hospitalized with COVID-19 that this was going to be a rough fight,” read an article posted on the Twitter account. “He had trouble breathing and was taken to the hospital by ambulance. We all prayed that the initial meds they gave him would get his breathing back to normal, but it became clear pretty quickly that he was in for a battle.”

Another Trump virus denier dies. Maybe he didn’t take enough Hydroxychloroquine or swallow enough clorox.

Cain showed his loyalty to Trump by attending the Tulsa rally without a mask and not social distancing. If only he had been given treatments prescribed by Donald Trump he’d be alive today.

You see? Only the Republican party allows real blacks with dark skin to run for President. The priviliged WHITE racist democrats only allow light skinned fake ones, like Cory Booker or Kamala Harris. Deval Patrick was immediately thrown under the bus by the DNC controlled media before he even had a chance to put his jacket on. The democrat party has been discriminating against real people of color for over 200 years. Don’t forget, the puppet you put in there in 2008 had a WHITE mother, after his father dumped his wife and kids in Kenya, while still married, and came to Hawaii to have an affair with Mrs. Dunham.
“At the age of 23, Obama Sr. had come to Hawaii to pursue his education, leaving behind a pregnant wife and infant son in his home town of Nyang’oma Kogelo in Kenya. Dunham and Obama Sr. were married on the Hawaiian island of Maui on February 2, 1961, despite parental opposition from both families”
“Obama Sr. eventually informed Dunham about his first marriage in Kenya but claimed he was divorced. Years later, she would discover this was false”.
So we see how trashy Obama came into being. The democrat party has to end its bigotry and allow real blacks to reach the highest office.
