You're listening to Comedy Central. When 60 Minutes premiered in September 1968, there was nothing like it. This is 60 Minutes. It's a kind of a magazine for television. Very few have been given access to the treasures in our archives. But that's all about to change. Like none of this stuff gets looked at. That's what's incredible. I'm Seth Done of CBS News. Listen to 60 Minutes, a second look on Apple podcasts starting September 17th. On the day Donald Trump most likely contracted COVID at an event in the Rose Garden, he hosted

another slightly different kind of super spreader event, a campaign rally. These rallies are a known vector for spreading many of Trump's favorite lives. So I traveled to the battleground state of Pennsylvania to see just how many people had caught Trump's version of reality. I'm here to Trump rally in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. We are weeks away from the election, months away from finding out who wins and probably about a year away from losing the loved one to the inevitable civil war. Let's do this. Yeah, make America great again.

Who? Woo, woo, woo! Rambo flag, classic. How's it going? You might if I check out some of your stuff? Yesterday we did $5,400 and sales. What is selling now? Is there anything 200,000 deaths later that doesn't quite work as well? Not with the Trump stuff.

It's almost as if the Trump stuff isn't affected by that at all. Exactly. Yeah, uh-huh. Tell me about these shorts. Well we got the Donald Trump short, you know we got a rep president for that. You got to be careful. Donald Trump that close to your genitals in a decade he's gonna deny he was ever there and counters. Pretty funny. When did you get out here to thr-I their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their. their. their. their. their. their. th. th. te. te. te. te. the. te. tell. tell. tell.

So you're going to wait two days to see the president? First of all, come on. Donald Trump is our first rock star superhero president. He's the real life Tony Stark.

They should call him President Iron Man. Well, Tony Stark gave a shit about science. So much excitement in the air, so many droplets, you feel like people are going to feel this effect for weeks to come. Why no mask? Frankly I forgot it in my car. I forgot to grab it on the way out. Honestly it's not even for COVID. I just think all of the Sharpie fumes are not super healthy for you. Probably not. When it was still wet. What do you think about the whole mask situation right now? Are you worried about COVID?

For me, like me personally, I'm not worried, but my dad is like underlying health conditions. Okay. So if he gets it, he's getting me in trouble. Why come here and take that risk if your dad has health issues? Just to see Trump. So it's worth a little bit of risk. Yeah. Nice flags, man.

I love them. Ha ha ha. Wear a mask. Burschus. Back at it. I don't live on the dictator's like you, deuce-bag. The efficacy of Trump's herd mentality theory was on full display. That's America right there. That's freedom?

That's freedom? Are you excited about the Scotia Spitz? Of course I am. What are you excited about? It's going to fill the court with constitutional loving Americans again. That court has been too liberal for too long. Really? Of course it has. You're pro-life.

thiii Americans to do whatever they can to protect a human life. Yes. Why aren't you wearing a mask? I mean, again, it's a personal choice, I think. If everybody was wearing them and everybody said put a mask on, I would respect everybody's wishes and put it on. We're not cheap. You're not cheap. But if everybody here was wearing masks, if everybody was wearing, but again, we're not cheaper. You're not cheaper. You're not cheap. We're not cheap. We're not cheap. We're not cheap. We're not cheap. We're not cheap. We're not cheap. We're not cheap. We're not cheap. We're not cheap. We're not cheap. We're not cheap. We're not cheap. We're not. We're not. We're not. We're not.

That's it. Yeah. But not cheap. Not cheap. As the not sheep were bravely running into a tightly packed airplane hanger to see patient zero, I couldn't help but think of D-Day in the beaches of Normandy. Well, I don't know those most vulnerable, whose defenses were already compromised. About two months before COVID started, somebody put me on to Q&N. And I believe some of it, and I don't believe some of it, but I believe only so much can be a conspiracy.

I think a lot of it's true. You know about Q&ON, is there anything you can tell us that I don't know? JFK Jr. is still alive. What? This guy is always behind Trump at the rallies. So you're saying JFK Jr. is still alive and spending its time in the background at Trump rally? From Q&I, yes. Do you think racism exists in America? I do not believe that people hate each other as much as... You don't think it's a problem now. There's a potential that JFK Jr. is alive and here at a Trump rally.

Maybe. Hilarious. But with just over a month until the voters go to the polls, had the president somehow already contaminated election day. If Biden is elected, you trust the results? No. No. They're cheaters.

But if Trump wins, do you trust the results? Yes, absolutely. I think mail and ballots is not going to be fair because it leads to fraud and stuff. You don't trust mail and ballots. Not at all. The president uses mail in ballots. Yeah, they're going to use mail ballots for this upcoming election, right? But the president mails it in. That's yeah it's

different. How's it different? I don't I don't know I honestly didn't know that. I only know what you're talking about. But you do know it's different. After hours in the heavily contaminated parking lot I wanted to self-quarine and chill but I still had one burning question. Are you at a better place than you were four years ago? Absolutely. Absolutely. Is America at a better place than they were four years ago? I believe absolutely. We have higher unemployment, we have 200,000 people dead due to COVID and we have riots in the streets.

Let me just tell you this much. Yes, I'm doing much better. I'm literally making four times as much as I was making when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when when the the the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the to the the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the to the the the the the the the the the the to the the the the the the the the the the the the. the the the. the the. the the. the a debt relief employee, you make more money under Donald Trump.
