President Trump's trip to the CDC was suddenly called off earlier today after a CDC employee showed symptoms of the new coronavirus. But test results cleared the staffer, and Trump decided that he would go.

President Trump signs the $8 billion emergency funding bill for coronavirus at the White House on Friday.President Trump signs the $8 billion emergency funding bill for coronavirus at the White House on Friday.President Trump on Friday will visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta after all.

The on-again, off-again drama played out in front of television cameras at the White House — and then on Air Force One, as Trump flew to Tennessee to view tornado damage. Early on Friday, the White House confirmed the CDC trip was off."The president is no longer traveling to Atlanta today. The CDC has been proactive and prepared since the very beginning and the president does not want to interfere with the CDC's mission to protect the health and welfare of their people and the agency," a White House official said in a statement.

Man , I hope that actual PIG gets the corona and finally stops that foul mouth from opening for ever

pdacosta Trump is a carrier so …

Who wants to pretend to be shocked

His bone spur got better

Weird photo...kind of Brian Wilson/Eugene Landy 'guru' thing going on.

Weak, ineffective leadership can only hide so long. Your inability to handle this situation is breaking wide open. Your lies, misleading and false statments will cost lives and we will hold you all responsible. We need the truth, we need experts and we need action.

Fingers crossed that....never mind 😜

Disease is all a hoax. So said DJT, until he might contact it. Can’t have that.

Awwwe you're not like like the close tonight for sho 😆

Oh.... please... please... please let Trump contract the coronavirus and please... please... please... let his suffering right up to the moment of his death be unbearable.

You know, if it’s a hoax and no worse than the flu what has him so concerned?

why would he cancel in the first place? i thought it 'wasn't a big deal' and it would just be 'very mild'. that's what he's been spewing the last few weeks. realDonaldTrump

I thought we wiped it out? 🤣

But, it's only as bad as a cold or mild flu- he'd be fine- keep going to work- it's all under control...

I'm glad realDonaldTrump is going. Don't forget to shake everyone's hand, Donald!

But he keeps telling us it's not a big deal...

We already know that he doesn't actually care about what is happening. You can stop now.n

Paranoid much? Dear Leader who has hunches for others and worries bunches for his own hide.

Are they still using the flawed testing kits that give false negatives?

The Dems are going to get you chicken shit it’s all a hoax.

And yesterday they said it was because they didn't want to interrupt work at CDC. ONCE AGAIN, realDonaldTrump and his administration LIED. THEY LIED, THEY LIED.

And now the CDC are scrambling to quickly find someone else there with the virus so trump will cancel the trip again

Hard to believe ANY versions of this story at this point.

If we're lucky it's a false negative and Trump contracts it anyway

Hope it wasn’t a false negative

Dès que la vaccination du personnel CDC est fini.. le Président Trump sera bel et bien là.. c'est aussi une forme de management de gestion de crise sanitaire.. Il s'agit de l'Autorité Suprême du pays !

Must be nice to be able to pull some strings and get tested right away. If only everyone in America with symptoms could be tested with this kind of urgency. If only we had used the working tests developed in Germany. But nooooo we had to create our own American tests. 🙄

We found the secret to keep trump away. Everyone start coughing and talking about recent trips to China.

Brave brave Sir Trump bravely ran away.

I can’t wait for him to bravely lie about the whole affair

Did no one tell them about the false negative rate? Eeep

Tell him the result was a false negative, but that someone tested positive in the White House. Maybe he'll resign.

Trump told everyone they can go to work with the virus, so what's the big?

Same thing as my rallies, I only travel to safe spaces while leaving the dirty work to others

Sooo hec won't go but we should just go around like nothing is going on.. nice day

“...hastily arranged signing bill ceremony”... 😱naw, I couldn’t tell given the unbuttoned shirt donned by BLOTUS COVIDー19 coronavirus trumpsucks

... Dammit. I was kinda hoping he'd 'lead by example', and show us 'it's no big deal.'

Ahhhhh just like Princess Diana visiting AIDS victims

Chicken shit

It’s fake news but he’s avoiding it ok

Wow he looks terrible

Yeah but Obama was supposed to go hug all the Ebola victims. What a lousy person

This is 'news' to you? You're trying to stir up your base about a non-story, that's all. It's time to end public funding for NPR. Now.

Haha

so have we finally figured out what it takes to get tested? Schedule a visit from the president? Because it doesn't seem like anybody else is able to get tested this quickly.

I really want to see this fucker realDonaldTrump get the coronavirus given all his false information he's been providing Americans. Please get it asshole. Then we can really see what the death rate is on it and if we can all go to work with it like you say. thanks!

But realDonaldTrump said it's like the flu, so what's he scared of? Has he lied to the American people? coronavirus TrumpLiesAboutCoronavirus

Trump to visit CDC on Friday after reversing decision to cancelPresident Trump will visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta today, coming just hours after a White House official said the leg of his trip was canceled, citing the interference a trip may cause amid a growing coronavirus outbreak. CDC is setting Trump up for failure because the Left would rather have the virus than Trump success Are you not reporting the truth anymore? Trump was scared to go when he heard someone in cdc got infected Nah...it was because a CDC worker is being monitored for infection. VP probably already gave it to him.

Trump abruptly scraps trip to CDC FridayTrump was expected to visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta on Friday even as the coronavirus outbreak escalates. I have never seen the USA so far behind on an issue. Trump is leading, I use that term sarcastically, from behind. I have never been as concerned about my country as I am now. POTUS is afraid of coronavirus 😬 Good for the CDC...and America.
