Even Ronald Reagan, of whom I was not a fan, didn't try to concoct a staged meeting when he was in the hospital. He met with his chief of staff and a senator while in his pajamas and bathrobe, like a normal hospital patient.

Obviously Trump can't (or at least shouldn't) meet in person, but if he's really working in the hospital he wouldn't be in a Wizard of Oz set pretending to be on the phone.
