What are the odds that Trump ISN'T infected?

Matt Gaetz flies on Air Force One. Gets coronavirus.

Bolsanaro meets Trump. Gets coronavirus.

Australian minister meets Ivanka and Barr. Gets coronavirus.

Trump refuses to get tested.

In other news, Kim Jong Un attended a military exercise not wearing a facemask while everyone else around him was wearing one...

The virus is no match for the immune-system of our vital and youthful glorious leader!!!!!

He's getting tested, like constantly. In fact I think he's hoarding COVID-19 tests and doling them out to sycophants, donors and his rotten family. That's what I think.

He's a germaphobe and a paranoid bastard.

He made a guy leave the room for coughing during an ABC interview.

I don't believe for one second that he and his ilk hasn't been tested.

Dr. Fauci isn't a fool. If he had significant concerns that Trump was infected, he wouldn't be meeting with him.

No self-respecting germ or viral agent would want to live in Trump's body. As a germophobe, however, the possibility of being infected is probably driving Trump crazy, or crazier...

There is no doubt in my mind that he is being tested. He lies about everything else why wouldn't he lie about that? The optics of him admitting being tested would go against the "What me worry" attitude that he is trying to project.

Matt Gaetz isn’t positive the last I heard. He was just exposed at the CPAC conference. He is self quarantined but I have seen nothing to indicate positive.
