President Trump and first lady Melania Trump have tested positive for Covid-19. At 74 years old, Trump’s diagnosis is the most serious known health threat to a sitting president in decades. The President's physician, Navy Cmdr. Dr. Sean Conley, wrote in a memo that the Trumps were doing well and will spend their quarantine and recovery at the White House. So, what happens next? Joe Biden needs to be immediately tested, says CNN's Chief Medical Correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta, since Biden recently shared the stage with the President for the debate. It could take a week for the Trumps to develop any symptoms, an ER doctor said, and Vice President Mike Pence may have to prepare to take over some of the President’s duties if he’s sidelined. Experts say this could also pose a national security concern and leave the country more vulnerable to meddling and discord. Not to mention, the Trumps have traveled freely and rarely worn masks, so medical experts say there is an untold number of people who may have come in contact with them.
Election 2020
After days of public pressure, President Trump finally condemned White supremacist groups, including the KKK and the Proud Boys,
during an interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity. Trump refused to
denounce such racists during this week’s debate. Talking with Hannity,
the President appeared to equate violence by far-left groups with White
supremacists, who his own FBI director says are the top domestic terror concern. Meanwhile, more voting controversies are emerging across the country. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott issued a proclamation limiting the number of drop-off locations
for mail-in ballots to one site per county despite the state’s
sprawling size and big population. In Michigan, the state attorney
general has charged two notorious right-wing political operatives with running a voter suppression campaign meant to intimidate voters. Are you having trouble voting by mail or in person? Have you received disinformation? Share your story with CNN here.
