Team Trump’s reaction to Ronna McDaniel’s illness points to coronavirus coverup
RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel has become physically ill, and she’s currently awaiting the results of a coronavirus test, after she was exposed to the virus at Mar-a-Lago last weekend. You’d think this would set off all the alarms within Donald Trump’s inner circle, considering Trump and most of his cronies were also exposed to it last weekend. Indeed, they’re upset – but not for the reason you’d think.
It turns out Trump’s inner circle isn’t upset that Ronna McDaniel is ill, or that she might have the coronavirus, or even that they have the coronavirus. No, according to the New York Times, they’re upset that she dared to publicly disclose her condition.
This is not only heartless, it’s shortsighted on their part. If Ronna McDaniel does have the coronavirus, it means a whole lot of other people in Donald Trump’s inner circle probably have it too. They should be worried about their own health, considering this is a deadly virus. Instead they appear to be more worried about their ability to cover it up if they get sick. Come to think of it, how many Trump’s cronies from the Mar-a-Lago party are covering up coronavirus-like symptoms as we speak?
