Trump Lunching With Congressional Republicans in the White House After Coming in Close Contact With COVID-19 Infected Valet

President Donald Trump is hosting Republican members of Congress for lunch Friday in the White House State Dining Room, just two days after his personal valet tested positive for coronavirus.

The CDC and medical experts say anyone who comes in contact with someone testing positive for the virus that causes COVID-19 should self-quarantine for 14 days.

President Trump has rejected mask-wearing and social distancing, saying he is tested weekly for coronavirus. After he was told his valet was coronavirus-positive, he was furious.

“After learning that one of his valets was infected, Trump became ‘lava level mad’ at his staff and said he doesn’t feel it is doing all it can to protect him, according to a person close to the White House,” NBC News reported.

“So we test once a week. Now we’re going to go testing once a day,” Trump told reporters Thursday. “But even when you test once a day, somebody could — something happens where they catch something.”

1. What's Good For The Goose Is Not Good For The Gander - Huh?.....

So testing is 'nonsensical'? Hmmmnm.........

2. So, will anybody be wearing masks??

Sitting 6 feet apart? NOT shaking that MF's hand??

Great idea to hold a luncheon Donny! Why not infect the entire Republican House and Senate?

3. Oh really!!!????!!

I can’t believe it. I gotta sit down.

4. Huh ... sounds like it's really important to him to protect HIMSELF from Coronavirus ...

Everyone ELSE, OTOH, can go eat a bag of dicks as far as he's concerned.

Back to the Salt Mines for you, plebes!

5. Ah, once a day testing, no doubt from confiscated shipments destined for...

Masses of “little” people who desperately need them.
How convenient.

6. Let the 'cons commune, closely, on their terms, their responsiblities

7. Trump being tested every day

will not keep him safe. It will only tell him if he's been infected or not.
If his staff wants to keep him safe, he should stay in isolation or at the very least make sure that everyone in the White House wears a mask at all times. Trump should realize that he's a big boy now and in order to be safe he should have no need for a valet.

on edit: I guess it's kinda hard to have lunch wearing a mask. Do the Republicans who were invited have enough balls to decline the invitation?

8. So he's tested every day (and how many false negatives are these tests producing?)

and one day a test comes back positive. Then what? Will he pretend he doesn't have it and it's just allergies, at least unless he gets too sick to appear on his beloved TV shows - and if that happens how will they cover it up?

9. Well, there's a loyalty test for you. Can't wait to see who showed up. nt
