It's not the political orientation of the mass gathering - it's the purpose. One is the President organising a gathering in an attempt to boost his election campaign - the other is some random people who came together to protest a specific thing.

And yet, the virus is still the same virus, so why is it okay to describe it differently in each piece?

What is the political orientation of a "mass gathering" (rally/protest/etc) if not its purpose? Seriously.
