Donald Trump Did Not Actually Call For President Obama to Get Ebola

The website Mediate posted a story with the title Donald Trump Wants President Obama to get Ebola (or something). I think the title is very inaccurate. Trump did not say he wanted President Obama to get Ebola. Trump's actual quote is "President Obama has a personal responsibility to visit & embrace all people in the U.S. who contract Ebola".

President Obama could visit Ebola patients without getting sick. Also, embrace does not have to be taken literally.

and instead pretend he didn't mean embrace when he said embrace.

OK.
