President Trump is in quarantine after a top aide he traveled with this week has tested positive for coronavirus.
Hope Hicks began having symptoms of COVID-19 on Wednesday when traveling back from Minnesota on Air Force One – and was confirmed to have the virus on Thursday.
Trump told Fox News that he was tested for the virus, and is now in quarantine as he and First Lady Melania Trump await test results.
He tweeted on Thursday: “Hope Hicks, who has been working so hard without even taking a small break, has just tested positive for Covid 19. Terrible!
“The First Lady and I are waiting for our test results. In the meantime, we will begin our quarantine process!”
If Trump tests positive, it could set back his campaign strategy if he’s forced to quarantine for an extended period with just a little more than 30 days to the election.
