Donald Trump Resists Coronavirus Testing


This week a Brazilian official who spent time with Donald Trump and Mike Pence last Saturday tested positive for the coronavirus [click here if you missed that].

Despite their interaction, Trump and Pence have NOT been tested following their exposure...


White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham said in a statement,
“The White House is aware of public reports that a member of the Brazilian delegation‘s visit to Mar-a-Lago last weekend tested positive for COVID-19; confirmatory testing is pending. Exposures from the case are being assessed, which will dictate next steps. Both the President and Vice President had almost no interactions with the individual who tested positive and do not require being tested at this time."
