News broke this morning that Mark Meadow’s book included the revelation that Trump tested positive for COVID three days prior to the first debate with Biden.

Very few (if any) doubt that Meadows is telling the truth, this site questions why Meadows dropped this awful fact today of all days. Yesterday, Meadows released that he was cooperating with the Select Committee and would testify on matters that do not touch upon executive privilege.

The announcement could mean anything from Meadows doing nothing but stalling and answering 95% of the questions with, “I cannot answer that without violating executive privilege.” He would risk being prosecuted for refusing to actually testify but he would at least buy himself some time to see what was happening with others and whether a court actually did protect him with executive privilege, all the way to answering 98% of their questions in the hope that he gets immunity or has immunity.

But the real question is whether he dropped such a shocking fact to distract Trump from his rage and possibly plan out some revenge through others.

Meadows also revealed that even after the positive test, Trump didn’t worry about giving the disease to anyone else, he worried only about himself. And, some think that Trump was actually trying to give Biden COVID himself by being in somewhat close proximity.

According to Meadows, Trump tested positive for Covid on 9/26. On 9/27 he held event w/military families. Here’s what the Post said about it: “At Trump’s insistence, few were wearing masks…He wasn’t worried about others getting sick, but he did fret about his own vulnerability”

It is tough to know with certainty whether he knew for a fact that he had COVID at the time or whether it was just suspected due to one of the fast, less reliable tests. But it is not hard to believe, at all, that Trump couldn’t have cared less about giving the disease to someone else, only about how sick he might get. It is not even hard to believe he would actively be trying to infect Biden.

The other shocking thing about this revelation is that Meadows could know that Trump was that evil and yet continue to pledge undying loyalty to a man capable of risking other people’s lives.

Twitter was seriously angry and wondered if Trump did it on purpose:

Who else thinks Trump should be tried for attempted murder for attending a debate with 78-year-old Joe Biden after testing positive for COVID? 🖐️

So in a 24 hour or so period after testing positive for COVID, Trump knowingly exposed:
– Gold Star families
– the media
– his staff
– the Secret Service
– Joe Biden and everyone at the debate https://t.co/ctpVaqS048

At that moment in the pandemic, before the vaccine, covid was a potential death sentence.

If true, Trump participating in that debate *while covid positive* was nothing less than attempted murder — of Biden, and everyone else in close proximity.https://t.co/PbRfDcOByS https://t.co/rs7vsJrb1p

Donald Trump is a disgusting piece of filth for putting President Biden and others in danger with COVID.

That's the tweet.
