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!

This is all fulfillment of prophecy...
...
"Here come old flat-top, he come groovin' up slowly"
"Got to be a joker, he just do what he please"
"He say, 'I know you, you know me'
One thing I can tell you is you got to be free"
"He got feet down below his knee
Hold you in his armchair, you can feel his disease"

Dear Donald,
Hang in there, dude! Odds are you will pull through. Be more careful going forward, though.
Sometimes, the only winning move is not to play.
Best Wishes,

He deserves to be in prison not dead, but still your support of someone who has destroyed your country is a little repulsive. Or are you Russian?

Whoosh!
Thankfully, I am not responsible for deciding what he deserves, though Darwin may weigh in.
A country is ever-so-much more than its present figure-head, and for the most part is unaffected by it. Whom I support, you would never guess in a million years.
Nor am I Russian. I am, nonetheless, human, and sincerely wish the best for my fellow humans. AFAICT, none of us chose to be sentenced to an eighty year confinement in this gravity well, but then here we are. The funny thing is how we all see it so differently.
I celebrate this.
