Give up the rallies? Are you crazy??
Trump is doing a best of both worlds thing on the virus – telling us to relax and ignore all the warnings and instructions, while telling the Secret Service to keep the sickies away from him.
Stories about Trump’s coronavirus fears have spread through the White House. Last week Trump told aides he’s afraid journalists will try to purposefully contract coronavirus to give it to him on Air Force One, a person close to the administration told me. The source also said Trump has asked the Secret Service to set up a screening program and bar anyone who has a cough from the White House grounds. “He’s definitely melting down over this,” the source said.
But thus far Trump’s private concerns haven’t affected his public response. Pressure from the public health community is mounting on Trump to cancel his mass rallies, but Trump is pushing back. “He is going to resist until the very last minute,” a former West Wing official said. “He may take suggestions to stop shaking hands, but in terms of shutting stuff down, his position is: ‘No, I’m not going to do it.’”
Naturally. When it’s a question of other people’s safety versus his love of mouthing off to an audience, there’s no contest.
Maybe they’ll make Trump a special virus-proof Popemobile, complete with KFC bucket holders.

Latsot, shouldn’t the Trumpmobile be gold?
Maybe he’ll be the inspiration for the first massive tie in the Darwin Awards.
Barbara, you have a point. But that’s what came up when I searched for “trumpmobile”. Who am I to argue with the internet?
While on the subject of the Trumpmobile… Here’s an idea for his line of mobile presidential libraries.
