President Trump will "absolutely" be ready before the next presidential debate against Joe Biden, his former White House physician told "Fox & Friends" on Friday.

The commander in chief announced overnight that both he and first lady Melania Trump tested positive for the coronavirus and will quarantine at the White House.

Dr. Ronny Jackson, a retired U.S. Navy rear admiral who served as physician to the president from 2013 to 2018 and is running for Congress in Texas, said there's plenty of time between now and the Oct. 15 debate against the Democratic nominee.

"Once he tests negative twice, you know, he should be safe to go back to, you know, to his normal routine, and that will be well before the next debate," Jackson said.

Trump is "asymptomatic right now" Jackson noted, adding that the president should have immunity after he recovers with two negative tests.

The Dems strategy is wear mask, Biden wears mask everywhere. President poked fun at him at the debate. The optics are horrible. Dems saying “this is the reality” of importance of wearing masks. The left and Dems got a chance to rub this nationality and all over the world in our President’s face. Hard to bear.

I find it odd that Republicans are testing positive and very few Dems are “known” to have it. Have they gotten it and kept quiet or are they infecting Republicans?

Mike Lee just announced he tested positive. He’s a Senator-Utah.

“And since when do we test symptom-free people for a disease, tell them they have one and that they must now pretend to be ill for two weeks? In what alternate universe does that seem reasonable to anyone? Yet people the world over continue to fall for it.”

Well said, and deserves repeating. It is like we are living in the twilight zone.

Trump has symptoms. Hope Hicks did too.

It didn’t seem like he was coughing much. But it’s not as if there would ever be a report about it if he did. Right?
