Trump returns to campaign trail after bout with covid-19, amid criticism he is still not taking pandemic seriously


https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/trump-rally-covid-florida-biden/2020/10/12/00c10916-0c99-11eb-8a35-237ef1eb2ef7_story.html

President Trump returned to the campaign trail Monday, holding his first rally since being hospitalized earlier this month, as part of an intense effort to demonstrate that his bout with covid-19 is behind him and that he is the more vigorous of the two septuagenarian candidates vying for the presidency.

Yet Trump’s rally in Sanford, Fla., came amid concerns that his plans to barnstorm the country could put him and others at risk.

Though Trump has declared himself now “immune” to the virus — which has killed more than 214,000 Americans and infiltrated the White House — he and his team have not clarified for the public the last time he tested negative before his covid-19 diagnosis was announced Oct. 2. This has raised questions about whom Trump may have infected before isolating himself at the White House and then at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.

On Monday afternoon, however, Trump’s doctor, Sean P. Conley, said in a memo released by the White House that the president had tested negative for the virus “on consecutive days,” using the Abbott rapid testing machine, and was no longer contagious.

when Trump shows up for last minuite ad buys, there is NO TIME SLOTS left for him to buy ??
Especially buy out the time around News hours and during the day. Then leave Trump the overnight hours?

If I was Bloomberg I would put the screws to them this way.
