President Trump announced early Friday that he and First Lady Melania tested positive for the COVID-19 China coronavirus. The announcement came just hours after news broke that close presidential aide Hope Hicks tested positive for the virus on Thursday after presenting symptoms Wednesday night while on a campaign trip to Duluth, Minnesota with the President. Hicks was reportedly quarantined on Air Force One for the return trip to D.C.
Tonight, @FLOTUS and I tested positive for COVID-19. We will begin our quarantine and recovery process immediately. We will get through this TOGETHER!
Trump posted earlier in the evening about Hicks, Hope Hicks, who has been working so hard without even taking a small break, has just tested positive for Covid 19. Terrible! The First Lady and I are waiting for our test results. In the meantime, we will begin our quarantine process!
Several close aides traveled with President Trump on his trips Tuesday to the debate with former Vice President Joe Biden in Cleveland, Ohio and on the trip to Duluth Wednesday. Trump traveled to Bedminster, New Jersey on Thursday for a fundraiser with fewer aides than normal.
Trump had a busy stretch of campaigning scheduled with rallies in Sanford, Florida on Friday, Janesville and Green Bay, Wisconsin on Saturday and Tucson and Flagstaff, Arizona on Monday and Tuesday, respectively.
In addition to all the concerns about the President, his family and White House staff is the possibility that Judge Amy Coney Barrett, nominated by Trump for the Supreme Court at a White House ceremony last Saturday, could have been exposed to the virus as she has worked with White House staff this week coordinating her meetings with senators on Capitol Hill.
UPDATE: Melania Trump posted, As too many Americans have done this year, @potus & I are quarantining at home after testing positive for COVID-19. We are feeling good & I have postponed all upcoming engagements. Please be sure you are staying safe & we will all get through this together.
White House physicians letter released:
They are saying test biden. So 2020 to have both candidates get covid and both be quarantined
Why the hell wasn’t he on hydroxychloroquine
Just a brief glimpse shows that democrats are in their vile glory wishing death on the president.
If they quarantine Biden how are we to tell the difference between that and his normal campaign schedule?
CC
Biden is not in good health. Waiting for Dems to claim trump tried to take him out eith covid
No kidding. Convenient excuse.
Maybe he was?
He does not look sick. I do not think hydroxychloroquine prevents transmission.
Both tested positive without symptoms? If no symptoms develop within a week or so, it means the virus attack was small quantity and their bodies fought it off.
Which is similar effect from a vaccine.
I believe there is a huge and influential portion of America’s medical establishment, which is deliberately interfering in our medical establishment, to discredit hydroxychloroquine as a treatment.
Even to that level.
Yes, no doubt Fauci, Birx, and minions are internally celebrating this.
HCQ is cheap, and doctors depend on benefits from big pharma. Follow the money.
They have donated antibody serum now, so that helps a lot. With any luck Pence will be OK and this will shift the emphasis over to the veep debate coming up in a few days.
Prayers are up
No he isn’t, he was coughing a great deal a railway campaign stop.
If he doesn’t die or need to go to the hospital, it proves our point, not theirs.
so how’s Joe? he was with POTUS 2 days ago. is he even up yet?
Maybe biden is the one who spread it. Dont know when Hicks got it
Not really. This guy gets the best medical care on the planet.
yeah I saw that...Biden and Trump might have it...No instant word on a negative or positive test from Biden. If it were positive we’d have heard about it....still might, but they are closed mouthed about his health in general.
