NPR and BBC report Hope Hicks is covid positive.

She was working closely with Trump leading up to the debate and his rallies after it. She was on the plane with him. Trump says he and Melania have been tested and are in quarantine, but who knows what he means by quarantine?

Moral dilemma for those who are praying people - which outcome to pray for?

of being in the same room during the debates when Trump wouldn't shut his effin' mouth.

The moral dilemma comment was a bit tongue in cheek.

This brings back my curiosity as to why she was the only one of Old Yeller's entourage to be wearing a mask at the debate.

I plainly remember asking if maybe she knew something nobody else did.

whether to pray for their health or for their tests to be positive - and serious.

Not supposed to pray for someone's harm, but then there is the greater good to consider.

"This is obviously a Democratic plot designed to infect the president by introducing the virus to a close aide. We have not figured out how they did it yet, but don't worry, we'll think of something."
