Herman Cain, the former presidential candidate and former CEO of Godfather’s Pizza, has died from coronavirus, according to an obituary sent from his verified Twitter account and Newsmax, where he was launching a television show.
Cain, as a co-chair of Black Voices for Trump, tested positive for Covid-19 on June 29 and was hospitalized on July 1 after developing symptoms serious enough to be hospitalized, according to the statement posted on Twitter.
Cain's last public appearance was as one of the surrogates at President Trump's June 20 rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
As a cancer survivor, Cain, age 74, is considered at an increased risk for coronavirus, according to US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidance.
RIP Herman Cain

Re: RIP Herman Cain
I'm deleting my duplicate post but porting over my comment:
Although I disagreed with him politically, I found him to be a lively and pleasant personality who had a popular radio morning talk show in Atlanta for several years.

This is interesting. He found the time to send tweets attacking the Biden-Harris ticket from beyond the grave. --Bob

Re: RIP Herman Cain
In fairness, they have rebranded the account as "The Cain Gang" and indicate in the description that the site is now being run by "his daughter team and family." A number of celebrity accounts continue after their deaths with posts by relatives or business associates.
