It’s quite amusing his family and supporters during the debate refused to wear masks.
It would be terrible if they all caught corona and ended up on intensive care wards.
Oh, I only hope Mr. trump doesn’t end up in IC, wheezin, gasping and crying. That would be truly horrible.
I hope he stays as fit as a fiddle, so he can tell us that he’s the strongest and healthiest person in the universe and that the people who have died so far are the exception.
@no1marauder saidFor those who haven't been keeping up with the level of danger posed by COVID, let me just say...
"President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump have tested positive for the coronavirus, the president tweeted early Friday.
Trump’s positive test comes just hours after the White House announced that senior aide Hope Hicks came down with the virus after traveling with the president several times this week. Trump is 74 years old, putting him at higher risk of ser ...[text shortened]... hope-hicks-7fece2838ff7a9bd91ccf5ac287348b3?utm_source=Twitter&utm_campaign=SocialFlow&utm_medium=AP
Don't start planning the funeral just yet.

If Trump comes out of this unscathed he will use this as proof COVID-19 is no big deal. His approval numbers will go up as conservative media claims he was right all along and is a genius for lying to the country about it.
I can't help but wonder if the proven con man who was convicted of being a scammer in court is just lying about it. He also claimed unconvincingly that he's taking hydroxychloroquine. Who knows.
If this is real, I hope Melania comes out okay.
I trust this is self-evident, but this is a massive boon for Trump's re-election chances.
Most likely scenario:
In two weeks, he'll have a whole ceremony in the Rose Garden where he and Melania exit quarantine and he'll announce that just like he and Melania did, the country as a whole is beating COVID. That will also take a bite out of the silly narrative that cases, in and of themselves, are bad.
If he does stay asymptomatic (or mildly symptomatic), it will also bolster his image as a tough, healthy person that could contrast with Biden's frailty. He might also claim to have licked it with hydroxychloroquine (whether true or not) and if he does beat it easily, it will bolster his implicit position that COVID isn't worth shutting the economy down over.
The schadenfreude is premature.
@vivify saidThey could also be giving him Remdesivir, Dexamethasone, Regeneron's new monoclonal antibody treatment, convalescent plasma and any number of treatments that hospitals now use.

Then he could say he took none of them or just hydroxychloroquine. Nobody will be able to prove otherwise and doctors have to keep this info confidential.
