Former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows reportedly reveals in a new book that former President Trump tested positive for the coronavirus three days before his first debate against then-Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden.

In "The Chief’s Chief," Meadows writes that although Trump was aware that in order to participate in the debate, each candidate had to “to test negative for the virus within seventy two hours of the start time … Nothing was going to stop [Trump] from going out there," The Guardian, which obtained a copy of the book, reported.

Shortly after getting the positive result, Trump reportedly tested again and received a negative result.

“ Shortly after getting the positive result, Trump reportedly tested again and received a negative result.”

Oh good grief.

Trump reportedly tested again and received a negative result.

So that's why he went. This headline makes it look like he knew he had COVID and was being reckless and putting everyone in danger.

The probably ran the PCR for 400 cycles to get a positive test. Running for the standard cycles liklely indicated that he was clear.

These drama queens forget even recent history and how we did things the wrong way.

The cycle rate is controlled at the lab. Ample opportunity to dial it up to a high rate to guarantee a positive result. Trump was smart to retest; interesting to see if he used a different lab.

I don’t believe this. The Biden camp would have done anything to avoid the debates.

Get close to someone famous, write a book and make some sensational claims, collect money.

I wouldn’t accept one of these types of books as a gift.

IF they were accurate, these would not be changed
(mid-stream) after the initial start and millions of tests
later. Like the vaccine, the tests don’t work. DUH!

Was there any mention as to the number of positive cases
found shortly after the debate? Seem to remember at
least a few popped up with positive test results. Unable to recall any particular name(s).

Too bad he didn’t skip it. That was his worst debate performance ever. His prior debate (the last one against Hillary) was masterful.

Yes, he was off on that one. Obvious that something was ‘wrong’. He still powered thru it.

Something extremely bogus is going on. Was tested for covid four times today. Two tests came back negative, two came back positive. Same machine, same test, same nurse. Rapid antigen test from BD.— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) November 13, 2020

Good try by Trump, but Biden and the other Leftists there were on Ivermectin, so they weren’t going to get sick...obviously.
