Clay Clark is a podcast host and ardent supporter of President Donald Trump.
Speaking at a rally held Tuesday in Washington, DC, Clark apparently thought having a 'mass-spreader event' was a good thing.
According to HuffPost, Clark told attendees at the event in Freedom Plaza that COVID-19 was a hoax. He then invited them hug each other.
Turn to the person next to you and give them a hug, someone you don’t know. Go hug somebody. Go ahead and spread it out, mass spreader. It’s a mass-spreader event! Clay Clark
The Twitterverse was singularly unimpressed.
Clark also made a point to say he was open to hugs despite being in a committed relationship.
