(CNN) President Donald Trump is expected to rally thousands of supporters indoors on Sunday for the first time in nearly three months.

The campaign rally in Henderson, Nevada -- which will be held inside a facility of Xtreme Manufacturing -- is expected to violate the state of Nevada's restriction on gatherings of 50 people or more. It follows a stretch of outdoor events after Trump's controversial indoor Tulsa, Oklahoma, rally in June saw underwhelming attendance.

The indoor event, which comes as US coronavirus deaths near 200,000, follows a turbulent week for the President as his campaign navigates the fall out of his Covid-19 response. Trump has long viewed rallies as an outlet where he can connect with his supporters in a way that he can't when he's in Washington, DC, and has blamed bad poll numbers on his absence from the campaign trail.

But his last entirely indoor rally in Tulsa brought considerable controversy after the city experienced a surge in coronavirus cases a little more than 2 weeks after the event and multiple campaign staffers along with Secret Service agents tested positive for the virus.

1. So will they attendees have to sign waivers re COVID 19?

I cannot believe anyone is that dumb to believe that there is no Coronavirus.

[SunSeeker]

13. Of course. He even makes them sign for outdoor rallies. nt

2. The Mango Mussolini holds super spreaders

What are the odds of those MAGAts dying from covid?

3. I hope he gets it

[Girard442]

4. He's telling his supporters to their faces he doesn't care if they live or die.

If he brings Kool Aid, they'll drink it.

12. I think it gets his jollies off.

He knows its dangerous, figures some of them know it too and that he has them so mindlessly loyal they believe him over their own senses. Either ways demonstrates his power and so gets his rock off.

5. I think the timing couldn't be better.

Please proceed...

6. I wonder if they have to buy tickets or is he giving them out for free

On one hand these rallies have always been money makers for him in the past, on the other he is desperate for an adoring crowd.

9. Trump has never charged admission for his rallies...

7. nuts

8. 2 things:

I bet this rally is not a full house. (see tulsa rally)

I bet it will produce @ least 20 deaths by election day. (see Hermain Cain)

10. Now THAT'S Gambling

For the Cultists, I mean. The False Prophet will be be just fine!

[Roy Rolling]

11. Xtreme Manufacturing?

What do they sell?

[OAITW r.2.0]

14. I think these rallies are becoming counter-productive for Trump.

More and more voters are seeing the effects of these rallies turning into super-spreader events. Trump's speeches are total nonsense and that has to be returning diminishing results as well.

15. The ghost of Herman Cain approves
