April Ryan: "coronavirus is more rampant in the White House than the public is being told"



AprilDRyan ✔@AprilDRyan

Umm this was a week ago and look what is being said today! Hmmm

AprilDRyan ✔@AprilDRyan

I’m hearing on good authority that #coronavirus is more rampant in the #WhiteHouse than the public is being told. A very high-ranking individual may have also been impacted! The administration is currently mum on the matter, seeking prayers instead. #COVID19

And besides, we are talking about That Guy Who LIES ALL THE TIME. I wouldn't trust what he says even if he showed me test results. There'd be no way I could trust that those "results" weren't - pardon the pun - trumped up.

Kate Miller, Pence's press secretary and the wife of Steven Miller. We know now that she has tested positive.

But tonight, just a few minutes ago, I heard on NPR's news that Trump said he is taking hydroxychloroquine as a preventative. He insists that it is only a preventative, and that he has not tested positive.

I guess everything's relative.

But lately it sounds as if Jared is just reinforcing his worst tendencies ("it's all about managing the stock market!&quot .
That leaves it at Ivanka, his little She-Mini-Me, or Hope (must remember the PE) Hicks his pants-steamer.

Hmm. I guess the mini-me's personal assistant tested positive:

It's setting off quite a guessing game, I must say.

Jodyanne Jerkmeoff has been mighty quiet lately. Has anybody seen or heard from her? Could she be under quarantine? And what about Steven Miller - since his wife was infected?

Maybe he's had some positives, and some negatives, so they aren't sure because they rapid testing is so shitty. I can't imagine his doctor permitting it unless he's had positive results.

When was Ivanka seen last? Is she done with quarantining herself?
