even though there were not extraordinary efforts taken to isolate the infected individual.

Covid 19 is strange, sometimes it seems to spread like wildfire, but other times not as much.

doesn't mean he won't test positive tomorrow, or 10 days from now. It seems that sometimes the virus hides for awhile, then pops up when you least expect it. This is one curious virus, and they haven't been able to nail down specifics on it yet.

...to a Trump, for gods’ sake? As best I can figure out, because power is an aphrodisiac (as was said of homely old Kissinger) there are some women who really get off on power. Clearly she is one of those.

It’s really funny what individuals find attractive. Brains and a compatible sense of ethics — quick wits and a sense of humor that is not cruel — common interests in books, that kind of thing does it for me.

One of my several brothers in law really had the old sex-appeal when we were all younger. I swear, I saw certain women just melt like butter while he talked to them and looked deep into their eyes. Altho his particular vibe never came close to working on me, I admit his charm ran deep.

Everything I’ve read about Trump Senior tells me that when younger he was good-looking, but his charm was entirely superficial and in fact he was a boorish pig even then. Whatever the hell it was that he had for his wives and girlfriends — I seriously don’t get it. And as far as I can tell his spawn with Ivana are cut from the same cloth.

of someone who can become better.

He was never evil but he was kind of an asshole and inconsiderate. He had an affair with his friend's wife which was asshole behavior . I'm glad he ran for Governor when he did and not earlier on because I would never have supported him then.

would never hear the end of him telling us all about how it was nothing, and he barely even knew he had it, and the common cold is way worse so people need to just toughen up and be like him.

Kimberly Guilfoyle tests positive for coronavirus
By Brett Samuels - 07/03/20 10:38 PM EDT

snip//

Guilfoyle, the national chair of the Trump Victory Finance Committee and an adviser to the campaign, attended the president's rally last month in Tulsa, Okla. That gathering, and Friday's fireworks show in South Dakota, come amid the coronavirus pandemic, which has infected more than 2.7 million people in the U.S. and killed nearly 130,000 Americans.

Attendees at both events flouted social distancing recommendations and largely did not wear masks, both of which are recommended by federal health officials to slow the spread of the virus. Trump has personally eschewed wearing a mask in public, even as GOP leaders urge him to do so.

Guilfoyle is the latest individual in proximity to the president to test positive for the virus. One of the president's military valets tested positive in March, as did the vice president's press secretary.

Herman Cain, a Trump supporter who attended the Tulsa rally, shared earlier in the week that he has also tested positive and was hospitalized.
