Ever since President Donald Trump announced his positive COVID-19 diagnosis, members of his White House and campaign orbit have been dropping into self-quarantine like flies.

The spread has been supercharged by the administration’s highly questionable commitment to contact tracing and general opposition to best practices like mask-wearing and quarantining.

  3. From Typhoid Mary then to Covid Donnie now. Kinda makes sense.
    Except that Mary never really believed that she was sick.
    And they imprisoned her.
    Donnie knows he’s sick but doesn’t give a shit about spreading it.
    And we haven’t imprisoned him…YET.

  4. Needs strings and pushpins and a few senators to be named later.

  5. I’d settle for just one in particular.
