We are now deep into Day 3 if Donald Trump’s COVID crisis, and the American public really doesn’t have ANY reliable official information about his condition.

President Trump briefly left Walter Reed medical center quarantine to drive by a group of supporters — a move that was swiftly criticized by medical experts and Democrats as "insanity." https://t.co/3oMlg38KUj

UPDATE: "Every single person in the vehicle during that completely unnecessary Presidential 'drive-by' just now has to be quarantined for 14 days," Dr. James Phillips, attending physician at Walter Reed tweeted. https://t.co/wiBfDEjNxJ

Totally shocked that the guy who tear gassed peaceful protesters for a photo-op would endanger the lives of secret service agents for a joyride.

“It raises the question: Is he sicker than we’re hearing, or are they being overly aggressive because he is the president, in a way that could be potentially harmful?” https://t.co/Z8lxBJb3M1
Alarming quote from a Sean Conley colleague: "Every statement he is giving appears to be political, dictated by the White House or the president. These are not the statements a medical doctor gives."https://t.co/vXxt5qGpGA

You don’t start dexamethasone, Remdesivir and given an experimental antibody cocktail to the President in the setting of low oxygen “dips” unless there’s COVID Pneumonia.

What did his chest imaging show? The American people deserve basic information on their President
If @realDonaldTrump were my patient, in unstable condition + contagious illness, & he suddenly left the hospital to go for a car ride that endangers himself & others:

I'd call security to restrain him then perform a psychiatric evaluation to examine his decision-making capacity.
A man with a dangerous and highly contagious disease, who is being treated for that disease with powerful drugs, wanted to be taken for a ride in a car so he could wave to gawking cult followers.

As long as 40 percent of us are this stupid, we are doomed as a nation.
There's little evidence that the White House or the Trump campaign has reached out to potentially exposed people, or even circulated guidance to the rattled staffers within the White House complex. https://t.co/p1j98j72Yq

The only plausible reason I can come up with for the White House refusing to disclose when Trump’s last negative test occurred is that he was tested far less frequently than they led us to believe https://t.co/AJPnOeqMdC

Joseph R. Biden Jr. has again tested negative for the coronavirus, his campaign announced Sunday evening, less than a week after he shared a debate stage with President Trump, who has tested positive for the virus and is in the hospital.https://t.co/I88jVIrNqj
