US President Donald Trump held a rally this Sunday in a completely covered place in

Nevada

, something that has aroused the indignation of state authorities who had already warned that the meeting violated the restrictions imposed by the coronavirus pandemic.

It is not the first time that an indoor rally has caused problems for Trump.

Already in June, an act in Oklahoma that was linked to an increase in cases of the virus generated great controversy.

At this Sunday's event in

Henderson

, a

Las Vegas

suburb

, Trump applauded his own management of the pandemic, which already has almost 195,000 fatalities in the US, the highest number in the world.

"We have done a wonderful job, they are not giving us any credit for the work we have done," he harangued the crowd, and stressed that his leadership has "saved millions of lives."

"Reckless and selfish actions"

Democratic Governor

Steve Sisolak

has nevertheless tweeted: "Tonight, President Donald Trump is taking reckless and selfish actions that put countless lives in danger here in Nevada."

And Trump has urged the crowd to "tell your governor to open his state."

The rally plans had sparked rejection from local authorities, who warned that events of more than 50 people are not allowed by the

coronavirus

.

"The City of Henderson sent a letter and verbal warning to the organizer that the event as planned would directly violate the Governor's emergency directives for

Covid-19,

" said local spokeswoman

Kathleen Richards

.

The Trump campaign responded that at his rally in Nevada attendees would be taken at their temperature upon entry and given masks.

"If you can get together with tens of thousands of people to protest in the streets or burn small businesses in riots, you can meet peacefully under the first amendment to listen to the president of the United States," Trump's campaign director has argued to reporters.
