Would Trump Admit to Testing Positive For The Coronavirus?

Over the weekend, the White House indicated that President Trump had undergone testing for the Coronavirus after coming into contact with two Brazilian officials who have tested positive.


White House Press Secretary stated, "One week after having dinner with the Brazilian delegation in Mar-a-Lago, the President remains symptom-free."


Yet as the CDC notes that symptoms for the Coronavirus may appear "2-14 days after exposure."


Will the President still be symptom free by next weekend?


And if he isn't can we expect him to be forthcoming about it?


If President Trump were to test positive for the Coronavirus what makes anyone think he would tell us?


Given his propensity for lying, I have my doubts.


Let us remember that Trump is on record as saying the Coronavirus is "under tremendous control" while Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases at the National Institutes of Health, says the worst is still come with the possibility the Coronavirus could result in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Americans.


Let us also remember that Trump's longtime physician claimed in December 2015 that his obese patient "will be the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency."  If Trump isn't going to be honest about what is happening at large then why would he be honest about his own health?
