I just saw the CNN headline With Trump Hospitalized, More COVID-19 Cases Emerge In White House and Campaign. The moment I saw the headline I wondered if there had been a White House coverup of the number of people who were coming down with COVID-19. Last night it was reported, I think on CBS Evening News, that the Trump Administration had tried to hide the fact that Hope Hicks had tested positive for COVID-19. With the CNN headline coming out this morning I wonder if the Trump Administration has been trying to hide the number of people coming down with COVID-19.

(9,263 posts)wise. Obvious an attempt was made in releasing info starting a week ago or so. I think that was their invincibility of arrogance. Then the dam let lose wit trump catching it and no longer containing the story. No doubt we will see and here of others testing positive. Lets enjoy the shear panic these trump people are going through/
this is karma

(32,104 posts)that Trump arrived too late to the Cleveland debate to be tested, so they just took his word that hed been tested recently and was negative... yeah, right.
He arrived too late on purpose because he knew he was coming down with something and he was afraid they wouldnt let him carry on with the debate. This I am sure of. Who else watching that debacle didnt think he looked red-faced, sweaty, and generally unwell? Of course, since he is the Almighty Lyin King, he just gets to bypass any rules on anything.
I am sickened by the whole occurrence and am grateful Joe and Jill are fine.
I want Trump to make a full recovery so he can see the American people annihilate his ass at the ballot box this November.

(25,989 posts)Theyve been so honest, forthright, and transparent so far, and theres absolutely nothing to be gained from hiding the truth about this. I, for one, am appalled at the mere suggestion of impropriety.
In case its needed...

(6,448 posts)Each of the red states have probably fudged the numbers of cases and deaths to save the presidency and make our side look like Chicken Little.
Imagine the hierarchy of a beehive. Putin is the queen. The GOP and the media are the drones, and the MAGAts are the workers. The memo comes down from the top and the hive works in lockstep to see that the fascist tasks are accomplished.
Our actual death toll may be 300,000 today. Somebody out there knows the truth and it will come out. I just hope Trump pulls through so he can get the traditional punishment for treason. That goes for all the other ones collecting rubles in their campaign war chest.
