First lady Melania Trump announced in a statement on Wednesday that in addition to her and President Trump’s COVID-19 diagnosis, their son Barron contracted the novel coronavirus as well.

The idea that the three of them spent any time together while they were all COVID-positive is giving me a good laugh. The idea that they took care of each other, well, that’s more a guffaw.

Barron (and no one) is out of the woods with respect to the coronavirus until everyone is vaccinated, periodically. Immunity is not permanent. Furthermore, if the disease does damage each time you’re infected, the damage can accrue. Good luck with that.

Just remember, everything they say is a lie.

Or did we pay for 3 helicopter rides, or 1 helicopter ride and two ambulances? And is Marine One considered in net-work or not?

If this is true - and it probably isn’t - then I’m glad he’s okay. On another note, he really does look like Nazi youth.

So were they merely lying when they reported that Barron had tested negative when imPOTUS and imFLOTUS tested positive, or did they fail to update the record when he did come back positive a few days later? You literally cannot believe anything that the tRumps say. It’s a non-stop web of lies, falshoods, and omissions.

I’d say Barron looks more like a member of the Putin Youth. Like literally.

I have a sinking feeling 20 years hence Barron is going to be responsible for a lot of pain, misery and death in the world. It’s in his DNA.

He paid off a flunky to take the test for him.

Melania has said that she didn’t visit her husband in the hospital because she didn’t want to possibly expose the Secret Service agents. I believe she and Barron stayed at the WH the whole time. She was probably just as glad to have Trump gone for a few days so she could recuperate in peace.
