More than 130 Secret Service officers involved in White House security and protecting President Trump when he travels are under orders to isolate or quarantine after testing positive for coronavirus or having close contact with an infected co-worker, the Washington Post reported on Friday.

The bottom line is that these 130 men and their families are merely objects to be used by Satan’s Avatar in the pursuit of his narcissistic need for adoration and adulation. He would not care if it was 13 or 1300 or 13,000, unless the number implied a reduction in his personal safety. It is all about just one person, the only person of importance in Satan’s Avatar’s universe.

Save us all from this infinitely small singular man.

I remember reading pieces back in 2017 about how the USSS agents at the WH were supposedly excited to be protecting the garrulous Trump after 8 years of enduring the snooty Obamas who apparently didn’t spend a lot of time yukking it up with their security details or something.

Glad to see that’s worked out so well for them. At least they got a lot of taxpayer funded trips to luxury resorts to watch the president golf.

Obama didn’t get them sick. Trump will go down as the worst President this county has ever had. The stuff that will come out the next few years on him will be shocking.

What a heartless, selfish group of people Trump and cult are. Secret Service agents have no choice but to put themselves at risk, but they should not have to put up with reckless behavior by Trump and White House staff. Horrible.

Trump is very fortunate the men and women of the Secret Service are professionals who won’t let his blatant disregard for their well-being, as well as that of their families, stand in the way of doing their jobs with integrity.

Isn’t that Trump in a nutshell? He expects, even demands, everyone else strictly play by the rules, while he disregards every law, norm, tradition, or value that encumbers him.

It would be interesting to know exactly how this is spreading. Yeah, I know, no masks, close quarters, etc. etc., it’s obviously spreading in the WH community. Trump blamed his exposure on some anonymous military family, but I saw a genetic sequencing study that linked the Rose Garden outbreak to MI.

You’ve got to wonder though if Trump himself is somehow still spreading the virus. Well, other than by his dangerous insistence that the WH remain an example to the world of everything you should never do in a pandemic, I mean.

I saw his picture on a cigar box, I’m pretty sure.

They’re testing more!

They’ll fight tooth and nail to prevent any examination of this specific issue. Except for Trump, who’ll blame everyone else.

Sadly Trump, the sociopath, very likely doesn’t care.

I’m sure there have been many presidents, of both parties, who would have quietly sent a note, or even visited, any of these folks who ended up in a hospital.
