I would find it interesting to know if any of the media onsite that evening have tested positive...

I wouldn’t be terribly surprised to find one or two, probably young, healthy, and female.

Christie

Was he at the Jersey fundraiser?

[jon-nyc]

Not sure I’d want to face this virus in Christie’s condition.

Actually he helped Trump prep for the debate.

Christie previously said he was not at President Donald Trump’s fundraiser at the Bedminster golf course Thursday, but had spent four mask-less days inside with Trump earlier in the week to prepare for the presidential debate.

He was also spotted in the Rose Garden last Saturday for the formal nomination of Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court. Following the ceremony — where masks were scarce and social distancing largely ignored — video footage captured Christie embracing other attendees.

With the money these guys spend on bodyguards, you'd think somebody might have twigged...

So while I think most likely this is a natural spread of the virus, I can easily imagine a Hollywood style plot of “someone” deliberately infecting a person they knew would eventually be exposed to Trump and then the ripple effect of the people around him.

To some, nothing is natural around Trump...

Kevin Bacon?

Lorraine DeAnna asked whether this could be considered an assassination attempt by the Chinese against Trump.

Not to worry, she's from California.

Senator Ron Johnson

Bacon will kill Trump one way or another.

He misspelled "obesity."

[jon-nyc]

Ha. That too.

It wouldn’t take some kind of Ocean 11 type of plot. Just some 32 year old journalist that believes Barrett and Trump is a bigger threat to the sovereignty of her body than COVID-19.

He gets breathless climbing the stairs. That has to be asthma.
