Trump's campaign asked. They even provided masks. The people who didn't wear them made a conscious and informed decision not to.
I know, right? Trump pulled up the Titanic to the dock, asked folks to wear life preservers, even offered them, but it's not Trump's fault these people were putting themselves at risk. Of course, he could've not docked the Titanic.
If you want a true nanny state, join the group that pines for the demise of the Soviet Union.

People who don't wear masks at public gatherings aren't rebels. It's other people they're putting at risk. The word isn't rebel, it's asshole.

And in America, you can be an asshole, as long as you don't trample on someone else's right.

It's obvious you weren't raised an American. Americans are born with a strong rebellious streak against anybody telling them what to do.
That’s nice, @Jolly, I hereby tell you to defend all of Trump’s stupid antics and vote for Trump.

Hmm, interesting. The fancy restaurant at President Trumps club has a dress code.
What do you think would happen if I had a reservation and tried to enter with old torn shorts and a T-shirt?
That's against my rights to not allow me to enter!!!!
I know President Trump would back me up on this! 555555

Those people went into that arena fully aware of the risks, given a mask for free. If they didn't wear it that's their own fault, not Trump's.
I would think that you would be aware of it as you have very close experience with COVID. For me, the issue with people not wearing masks, staying away from others, is that their actions not only affect themselves, but also can affect others.
I am sure that everyone would think it was crazy if I said that I was going to drive through a school zone at 100 kph. I know the risks, but I am a good driver, so why should it be a problem? Because, my actions can affect others.
(BTW, it is President Trumps fault. If he (or his aides) said that people would not be allowed in with out a mask, and if they took it off inside, they would be asked to leave. Airline companies are doing it and people I have talked to who have been on flights say that it is 100% compliance. Everybody wears a mask.)
Are you aware that Trump had THREE DIFFERENT OUTDOOR VENUES selected but the democrat governor of the state REFUSED to approve ANY of them, and the reason they were in an indoor facility in the first place was because the democrat governor forced them to have no other choice?
Are you???
Of course you aren't. It's too much fun and a he'll of a lot easier to just mindlessly beat Trump up with it.

You know... the more I get to know you the more I become convinced that you are dumber than a box of hair.
-
I'm convinced. You (you know who you are) have convinced me.
I WILL NOT VOTE FOR TRUMP BECAUSE PEOPLE AT THIS HUGE RALLY DID NOT WEAR MASKS.
AAAAAND, TRUMP WAS NOT WEARING A MASK.Thanks. This was the most important issue, I just didn't notice it earlier. Unforgivable, he obviously would lead this country into a maskless wasteland, and our very existence would cease. All that would be left would be millions and millions of unused masks.
I came so darn close to making a colossal mistake.
Thanks! Really made me think about what is important, and what is not.

As far as I can tell, this is FAKE NEWS, you should be ashamed of spreading it, unless you can provide evidence that Sisolak "refused to approve...and forced the rally indoors".
- The governor doesn't "approve" the venues
- The governor had nothing to do with those outdoor venues "canceling"
- The outdoor venues "canceled" (did not host) the outdoor events because of the existing mandate against groups with more than 50 people gathering
- The indoor venue at which the Monday event was held, ended up being fined $3,000 for violating the current state mandates
On the flip side, I think it's absolutely ridiculous these events are not allowed and fined when its a political rally, but it's OK when it's a BLM protest.

Meanwhile, you have no trouble voting for a man who just bally-hooed his prospective administration as Harris-Biden. Joe apparently couldn't remember who was on the top of the ticket.
And while you sit here having conniptions about a Trump rally that could have been held outside, but the Demonrat governor of Nevada couldn't let that happen, major shifts in the ME peace process are happening.
That's the problem with so many of the idiots (excuse me, that's actually denigrating idiots, when you compare them to many Demonrat voters) who suffer from TDS, always focusing on small negative things that don't amount to a hill of beans, and totally ignore any positive news, no matter how important.
So I'll defend Trump, warts and all. That way, you can defend a senile old Democrat crook, who has never done much of anything in forty years of government service, yet has grown wealthy while being in the government. A man who threatened a sovereign government, to keep bribe money flowing to his son. A man who helped take millions off of the Chinese to enrich his family. A man who has plagiarized papers and documents, dating back to his days in law school. Hell, the man is so senile, he even plagiarized himself, in his acceptance speech at the END convention.
Yeah, you vote for the swamp. You deserve them.

Ewwwww.

It's not fake news:
https://www.nytimes.com/2020/09/14/us/politics/trump-rally.html
"The decision to hold a rally indoors, officials said, was something of a last resort for a campaign that had tried to procure five different outdoor locations. A Trump campaign official said they all faced pressure from state officials not to host the rally."

The fact that you have the legal right to do something doesn't make it OK.
I've noticed that people use the US Constitution a lot to defend being a knobhead. Sure, they're not breaking the law, but they're still a knobhead

... people who complain that their "rights are being taken away" ...
I bet most of these anti-maskers wear seat belts when they drive, without complaining.
I suspect most of the people who don't wear masks believe that the protection offered by the mask isn't worth mentioning.
I know, I know, cnn screams all day long about the magical qualities of the mask. How could they not believe?
The sad part is that if cnn became anti-mask, a lot of these people would probably wear one.

Ah, OK, I missed that.
