One of Trump's closest aides, Hope Hicks, tested positive for Covid-19 yesterday morning. Because she was in close contact with Trump multiple times daily during the past week, in the Oval Office, in meetings, on Air Force One, and aboard the presidential helicopter, both he and wife Melania went into quarantine earlier yesterday (details here).
Will this infection — and possible serious illness — change his tune about Covid-19? If he is made significantly ill, it almost certainly will make the election next month even more dramatic.
If seriously ill, Trump could voluntarily or even involuntarily be removed from acting as President under the the 25th Amendment. That would mean Michael Pence would assume presidential duties.
The election is in thirty-two days. Registration closes in some states this weekend and on Monday. It's urgent that you register now if you haven't done so already.
