    I just spoke to Rep. Gaetz, who said he was put into a "closed up room" on AF1 after he found out he might have been exposed to Covid19. After landing, Trump "coaxed" him up front before leaving. "He was not hyper cautious about being in the same space that I was in."

        Gaetz said: "I refused to go into his office, I stood outside the door. I told him he could talk from that distance. "

        He also said: "I've been with the president for the last three days..... I was at a fundraiser with the president this afternoon and we he was shaking hands, taking pictures, just like he always does."

        "Closed up room?" I'm not the only one picturing him being shoved in an overhead compartment and sprayed with lysol, right?

        The downside is that if Trump doesn't get #Covid19, he will be hailed on Fox News as the super-healthy specimen who cannot be stopped by a silly viral infection.
