Chris Wallace Challenges Lara Trump On Possible White House 'Super-Spreader' Night

Chris Wallace held Lara Trump’s feet to the fire Sunday over the lack of COVID-19 health safety measures on the final night of the Republican National Convention outside the White House last week.

Nearly 1,500 people sat in chairs shoulder-to-shoulder on the White House South Lawn to hear President Donald Trump’s acceptance speech, and almost no one wore face masks, ignoring health guidelines established by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Participants said they weren’t even checked for or asked about COVID-19 symptoms, including coughing, before they were allowed to enter the grounds.

Lara Trump, campaign adviser and wife of the president’s middle son, Eric, shrugged off concerns — and any responsibility if attendees contracted COVID-19 as a result.

“People packed in, very few masks, no social distancing,” Wallace described the night in his interview with Trump on “Fox News Sunday.” “Lara, is the president just going to ignore the public health guidelines?” he asked, referring to the many expected rallies and meetings the president is planning for the coming weeks.

It was agreed that Eric was allowed to "increase" his IQ by added Lara's to his. But, still Eric was below the family average value.

There should be action and penalties. Perhaps multiplied by every person above the 50 limit.


II. PHASE TWO GENERAL PROVISIONS AND PROHIBITION ON MASS GATHERINGS

1. When leaving their residence or visiting the District, all individuals must continue to maintain a distance of at least six (6) feet from persons not in their household, except if such distance is impossible to maintain (such as when obtaining medical services, a haircut, or salon services). Wearing a mask or face covering is one tool to protect an individual’s own health and the health of others, but it does not replace social distancing.

2. The prohibition on large gatherings of more than ten (10) individuals, in force since March 24, 2020 (Mayor’s Order 2020-053), is repealed and replaced by a prohibition on mass gatherings of over fifty (50) persons, with any exceptions set forth below.

3. DOH guidance and any applicable orders of any regulatory agencies for a specific activity must be followed. Such guidance and directives may be found on coronavirus.dc.gov/phasetwo.

XVII. ENFORCEMENT

1. Any individual or entity that knowingly violates this Order may be subject to civil and administrative penalties authorized by law, including sanctions or penalties for violating D.C. Official Code § 7-2307, including civil fines or summary suspension or revocation of licenses.
