Minnesota Trump supporters say they're not concerned about getting sick after attending Trump's rally and fundraiser just days before he tested positive

President Donald Trump speaks during a campaign rally at the Duluth International Airport on September 30, 2020 in Duluth, Minnesota.President Donald Trump tested positive for the coronavirus just days after holding a rally and attending a private fundraiser in Minnesota, where he had close contact with a number of people.

In the wake of those events, many of the GOP officials who traveled with Trump or met with him personally have gotten tested for COVID-19, including state Reps. Jim Hagedorn and Tom Emmer, state Sen. Paul Gazelka, and Congressman Pete Stauber. Several Trump supporters who attended recent events in Minnesota told Business Insider they weren't scared about catching the virus in the wake of his rally and fundraiser — but they had varying opinions on how seriously they should take Trump's diagnosis.

Other Trump supporters said they knew how serious COVID-19 can be — so they took precautions like social distancing and wearing masks "It is surreal [Trump] was diagnosed with the virus within 48 hours of his Minnesota rally visit," he said. "I am concerned for anyone exposed at any rally and wish President Trump and the first lady a fast recovery.""I work 25-30 hours a week in a busy local restaurant and I feel I'm as much [at] risk to get it there or anywhere," he said.

Anyone liable to get it, even some never Trumpers

Good, because their lives depend on Trump and Republicans winning.

If they die, they die.
