Trump's First Rally Since His Positive COVID Test

So Trump had his first rally last night since he came down with the coronavirus, and honestly, nothing was really much different. He just somehow managed to turn his COVID-19 sickness into a defense of his handling of the pandemic, while also making me and my family rather concerned about his mental competency.
I mean, we were concerned before. We are outright terrified now.
Donald Trump joked that he was healthy enough to plunge into the crowd and give all the people there "a big fat kiss." He actually said that he feels "so powerful" and that he will "walk into that audience" and "kiss everyone in that audience." Don't worry, no one was left out either. He said that he would "kiss the guys and the beautiful women." Isn't that sweet? He included everyone.
Now, I know that Trump's rally speeches are usually bad, but this is bordering on unhinged. You may think I am overexaggerating, but see for yourself.
In addition, as usual, Trump was incorrect in touting his immunity to the virus. Dr. Anthony Fauci said Monday on CNN that those who recover from the coronavirus are only likely to be immune for a limited period of time. There have been cases of people getting reinfected weeks or months later.
Also as usual, little to none of the thousands of audience members were wearing masks or social distancing.
So at this point, his supporters can't call COVID-19 a hoax, because Trump has gotten it. So.. at this point does this mean they know it's a thing and they just still don't care? Or they just don't think it's bad because they all think that they'll get the same quality of medical treatment as the president? Ok, makes sense.
