BRASILIA - Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro’s communications secretary, Fabio Wajngarten, has been diagnosed with coronavirus following a second confirmatory test, the presidency’s communications office said on Thursday.
Wajngarten accompanied Bolsonaro on a recent trip to the U.S. and posted a photograph on Instagram standing next to Donald Trump. Brazil said it had already notified U.S. authorities of the positive test.

WASHINGTON/BRASILIA (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday said he was not concerned about the possibility of being exposed to the coronavirus after dining last week with a Brazilian government official who has since tested positive for the disease.
“Let’s put it this way: I’m not concerned,” Trump told reporters while meeting with Irish Prime Minister Leo Varadkar in the Oval Office.
If Trump gets corona, we are all screwed.
why?
“why?”
President Trump is old, if he gets it, the chances of dying are very high. If he dies, and it’s Pence versus Biden? Say hello to President Biden.
President Biden means the market doesn’t recover, we capitulate to the Chinese. The Dems will amp up attempts to take guns, and pack the Supreme Court.
Pence would beat Biden. He’d pick a great VP too. Democrats are a lost cause.
Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro’s communications director, Fábio Wajngarten, tested positive just days after traveling with Bolsonaro to a meeting with Trump and senior aides in Florida. White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham said in a statement Thursday that “exposures from the case are being assessed, which will dictate next steps.”
“Both the President and Vice President had almost no interactions with the individual who tested positive and do not require being tested at this time,” Grisham said.
“Pence would beat Biden. “
Pence is not the fighter Trump is. The media would lay waste to Pence. In addition, Pence has the charisma of a bowl of oatmeal.
Biden would win easily.
Relax, Pres. Trump is only in his middle 70s, in excellent health. He may catch this cold/flu but I doubt the symptoms will be severe enough to even keep him in bed.
“Relax, Pres. Trump is only in his middle 70s... “
Granted President Trump has MUCH better medical care, but the reason covid-19 is so deadly to people older than 60 is that as we age, our immune system weakens. Fact of life, no matter who you are.
I think Pence is too respectful of President Trump to encroach on his territory. If he were in the position, I believe he would fight with dignity and authority, as he does when standing along side the President. The man has impeccable character and values and sound mind. Nobody can name one good attribute Biden has to hold the office.
Biden can’t last 5 minutes on his own. He may be leading Democrats, but that ain’t saying anything these days.
Trump is also healthy and vigorous. No underlying respiratory or cardiac conditions.
Trump gets sunshine on his face daily. Sunshine is the best medicine and prophylactic for many kinds of respiratory virus.
“Biden can’t last 5 minutes on his own. He may be leading Democrats, but that ain’t saying anything these days.”
No, he wouldn’t. But, he has the media solidly behind him. Pence’s faith and the “anti-LGBTQLMNOP” bill he signed would cause him problems with the squishy middle. Pence’s lack of charisma would be an issue with the middle as well.
I suspect that Biden or his keepers will decline to debate Trump, especially if he goes through with Sunday’s debate with Sanders and does badly which he must.
Trump is Gods choice for now. He will be ok and will be reelected in November
