Donald Trump dodged questions on Hannity about whether he has tested positive or negative for coronavirus, coughed and was hoarse – but announced he’s doing a rally in Florida this weekend.
I haven’t watched all of last night's interview yet but these tweets tell you that Trump has either not been tested or has tested positive.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Trump won't tell Hannity if he's had a negative coronavirus test.

It will be interesting to see if anyone shows up at that Florida rally, including Trump.
His intention about suddenly inflicting new rallies is that they’ll soothe his ego and they’ll provide some fun visuals of people willfully refusing to follow any pandemic protocol while attending a super spreader event with him. And if the timing works out for him, the lethal consequences won’t be fully known until after the election.
Of course, the fact that he keeps refusing to say whether he’s been tested at all is a dead giveaway that anyone getting into a room with him should believe that he is both carrying the virus and extremely contagious.
