Tonight, @FLOTUS and I tested positive for COVID-19. We will begin our quarantine and recovery process immediately. We will get through this TOGETHER!
A report from c|net adds:
White House physician Dr. Sean Conley said in a memorandum late Thursday that the president and first lady were "both well at this time, and they plan to remain at home within the White House during their convalescence."
The announcement of the president and first lady's positive coronavirus test results came just hours after the revelation that top White House aide Hope Hicks had tested positive for the virus as well. The president indicated in an earlier tweet that he and the first lady had begun the quarantine process.
Hope Hicks, who has been working so hard without even taking a small break, has just tested positive for Covid 19. Terrible! The First Lady and I are waiting for our test results. In the meantime, we will begin our quarantine process!

You have severe confusion between the Old Testament and the New. God doesn't "smite" people any more. They do it to themselves and each other. But you probably believe in a different God anyway.

Give me Old Testament Yahweh any day. He never even thought of torturing people for all eternity for not kissing his ass; he'd kill them, let them drop into lower Sheol, and fade away, wiped from existence. Ever since he had a kid he's been a complete whackaloon.
I am "that girl" your mother warned you about...
