YouTube Description
as posted by the channelPresident Trump and the First Lady Melania Trump have both tested positive for coronavirus and are in quarantine. The positive results come after one of the president's closest aides, Hope Hicks, came down with the highly contagious virus. She had traveled on Air Force One with the president as recently as Wednesday when he held a large, tightly packed outdoor rally in Minnesota. Although Trump and those close to him are regularly tested for COVID, they rarely wear masks in public, at the White House or on Air Force One. In Tuesday night's debate, Trump even mocked Joe Biden for his frequent mask wearing.
