From the article:
According to NBC News:
After learning one of his valets was infected, Trump became lava level mad at his staff and said he doesnt feel they are doing all they can to protect him from the virus, according to a person close to the White House.
The source said the unknowingly infected valet was close to the President throughout the day on a consistent basis. Trump publicly disputed that Thursday, telling reporters hed had very little contact, personal contact, with this gentleman.

guillaumeb
(42,649 posts)Most GOP voters say that they still support Trump, so reality has nothing to do with any GOP response to the situation.

(26,168 posts)I do feel bad for the regular staff. trump's refusal to deal with the virus responsibly is not their fault. I am uncomfortable with actively wishing for someone else to come down with this thing, but I will say that for trump and the toadies he surrounds himself with -- it's about to get interesting.
guillaumeb
(42,649 posts)I wish ill on no one, including Trump. But if he, or his family, suffer the consequences of his own idiocy, that is Karma.
moose65
(3,445 posts)I generally don't wish harm on anyone, but this situation really has me in a quandary. What could be better than Trump, Don Jr, Eric, and Ivanka all contracting the virus they all said was a hoax? It is literally like the people who didn't think the Titanic would sink while they were ON the Titanic.

(13,106 posts)Meetings with republicans like he did. Even spaced apart a bunch of people are breathing into the same room. If he was really concerned he would only meet on video.
Sounds like he wants it both ways as usual, showing his base he is the tough guy no mask, while secretly scared to death of getting it.
But he always stands very close to Pence who has had quite a few of his staff get it. Makes you wonder, did he already have it? I am sure they tested for antibodies.

guillaumeb
(42,649 posts)but none of the cowardly enablers around Trump dare speak for attribution.
smirkymonkey
(63,221 posts)He refuses to follow any of the protocols, yet expects other people to keep him safe. Ha, ha, ha! What a joke!
He is either going to have to isolate completely or wear a mask, neither of which he will do. Therefore, he will continue to be exposed. I so hope he catches it and never recovers.

(3,557 posts)Theres only so much others can do. At some point, a person has to partake in at least some precautions, like wearing a mask and washing hands
