President Trump’s personal assistant Nick Luna tests positive for COVID-19 as White House outbreak grows by the minute
President Donald Trump’s personal assistant Nick Luna has tested positive for COVID-19, as the White House outbreak grows by the minute.
Body man Luna works very closely with the president and flew on Air Force One with him multiple times over the past week, according to the Wall Street Journal.
Jennifer Jacobs of Bloomberg News tweeted Luna’s positive test result on Saturday night and the publication reported that Luna’s diagnosis has left other White House aides concerned. Luna is said to be married to an aide of Jared Kushner’s.
President Trump himself is currently fighting the disease at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center just outside Washington D.C. His physician says he’s not out of the woods yet.
Many others who attended a White House ceremony last Saturday where Trump touted his latest Supreme Court nominee, Amy Comey Barrett, have tested positive for the deadly virus.
Money of those in attendance wore no masks and did not social distance.
