On Thursday night, CNN anchor Chris Cuomo, speaking on his CNN show “Cuomo Prime Time,”  linked the death of former GOP presidential candidate Herman Cain to President Trump’s Tulsa rally, noting that Cain attended a rally for Trump in Tulsa, Oklahoma, then charging, “Now, maybe he didn’t get it there. Sure, as hell didn’t help. May Herman Cain rest in peace. He fell ill not long after that rally in June, the one in Tulsa, Oklahoma. You see him not wearing a mask.” Cuomo later charged that Trump encouraged Cain “to go to a rally where nobody would socially distance and nobody would wear masks.”

Speaking to Chris Ruddy, the CEO of Newsmax, Cuomo brought up Herman Cain, saying, “I’m sorry about Herm. I’m sorry for his family and I’m sorry for his extended family. He had a lot of life left in front of him. And I’m sorry we lost him as soon as we did and how we did.”
